A guy walks into a bar, sits down and orders himself a drink,looking around he sees about 25 or so beautiful women. Pays for his drink, finishes it and leaves. Now, an average looking lady walks into a lounge, notices about 25 to 30 men there, sits down, orders a drink and before the server can make it back to the table with her drink, she finds that with her order comes about 30 drinks from the men at the lounge. She finishes her drink and as she is leaving, gets hounded by every man she has to walk near to leave. As I said this is just an observation but... Gotta love equality in this world we live in and am so very glad I don't drink. LOL

I'm a surface dweller

Hi, what exactly is your post about? It comes off a tad mysoginist.
Not all women would accept drinks from strangers for various reasons.

In fact, I am meeting with a male friend tonight at a bar before we go for a walk on the beach. And I told him I would start off by buying him a drink, whether it be coffee or alcoholic.

And, no...not all women have that experience...
Broad, sweeping stereotypical generalizations need to die..

Even back when I was in my 20's and all that *and* a biscuit....i was never hounded by, or had drinks sent to me by guys...

No I never stated that the drinks were accepted, Did I? I stated it was an observation, no it doesn't happen all the time, nor does it happen to everyone. What I said, is that way to many guys will fall all over themselves to get noticed, doing the same as the next for the same attention.

hi garry substantial social change takes times ., bars are very much still the domain of men . Seldom would you see a woman go to a bar on her own and if she did I wonder what reaction she would get from men . Equality is as much about attitudes and expectations .

The punchline sucks..

What exactly is your point? It is just how it works. So many people seem to think that Women have it easy in the dating world even more so if she is real attractive. That is not so! Real attractive Women are often very lonely. They get hounded all the time to the point they have no room to breath so they give up trying to sift through all the losers. Men give up for the opposite reason, Being ignored all the time. Its not easy for Men or Women its just different.

The men interested in me, take me out to a nice meal.

I could care less about a bar scene.

I am not sure but the way I see it the point of this thread might be that men should learn to leave women alone...
Sometimes offers of drinks, approaches and all that stuff become so frequent and so... I would say aggressive, that a woman, or even a group of women, just can't enjoy the evening and prefer to go home or to some gay bar where they can get less attention.
I think I have learned to leave them alone most of the times, and I only make a move if I receive some sort of signal... or not even in that case really (I said I'm shy)

well if that was not the point, I guess this is just another point...

I've found that engaging a woman with entertaining and witty conversation breaks the ice a lot better than buying her a drink. Maybe that's just me, though...

Bit of a generalization Sir. Not all men are that desperate.

I walk into a bar spot 25 or 30 beautiful women by my drink pick out a group of girls sitting together pick out the one that's ugliest sit down next to her offer to buy her a drink The other girls are going why is she picking him over us and result I go home with one under my arm and a pocket full of phone numbers guys pay attention Distance your head from your rectum there's going to be a test

"I've found that engaging a woman with entertaining and witty conversation breaks the ice a lot better than buying her a drink. Maybe that's just me, though." @happyGeezer...

to respond to that:
.....only if there's a real opportunity to even start a conversation.
A real question for ladies ... how do we encourage men to have a conversation with us without them thinking we just want a good time?

^^^^ There is almost always an opportunity to start a conversation. If you're observant and in the moment it is quite simple...
