I love it when other people support my long held beliefs. Such as that insane thing women do where they eat nothing on a dinner date to impress the guy is utterly stupid.

I can back this up from both sides of the equation.  I cannot tell you how many guy friends I've gone to dinner with who say something like "oh thank God you actually EAT" when I order a side of cow for dinner.  From the opposite side of it, I've actually told girls on dates that unless they're a vegetarian, ordering only a salad will not impress me. 

The guy in this article is right, do you really want to get involved with anyone who is such an asshole that s/he'll think less of you for eating actual food?  That's a huge warning sign right there. 

Here's the thing, your appetite for food will give me a hint as to your appetite for enjoying other things in life.  Also protip to women:  bones aren't sexy.*  Looking like a woman is.  So eat!  Enjoy!  And make him wonder if you're going to attack him with the same fervor with which you're decimating those ribs.



*I know, I know, I'm a bit of a hypocrite here since my taste in guys is for tall and skinny.  But all the tall and skinny guys I've known need to eat their body weight every day just to stay alive.  Yeah.  I'm not bitter about that.  This is me, sitting here being not bitter.

2 Oh yeah, and I'm not a tall skinny guy either, so... I'm not bitter either.

7 I think this commenter in the article put it best:

When women ate like a sparrow on a date, I was always suspicious. I like ladies with a bit of heft (ie. real women, not models) and I know they don't eat like that in real life to look as good as they do.

If a woman is a vegan, she should say so and then we would pick a restaurant where we can both be happy. Eating in a manner to either impress the male with the idea we eat like a small grazing antelope or that we are "dainty" is, as far as i am concerned, a shade toward dishonesty.

Like my first wife, who confessed after we got married she didn't really like giving oral, only taking it. She only did that while we were dating cause she thought I wanted it. Well, I did and still did. Be who you are.

I forget where I saw it, but this quote fits conservativeinthecity

Men marry women hoping they won't change.

Women marry men hoping they will change.

Both are disappointed.

9 If  my friend and I don't pack away more food than her husband ever thought of eating, he's looking for an emergency room because something is drastically wrong.   I've always wondered about women that hardly eat anything in front of men...do they go home an binge when no one is around?  And Alex is right; I've heard more than one man say they like something to hold on to.

10 Well, while I certainly don't speak for all men, I think I can safely speak for eddie and myself and say, if you want to see what TWO men like, look above.

No one wants to cuddle up to the comfort-equivalent of a bag of antlers at night, and I very seriously do not want a woman who is so neurotic about her weight and appearance that she will starve herself to look thin - think about it, if she is that neurotic that she'll starve herself, what the heck else is she neurotic about? 

I think the whole thing is a warning sign, reading something like the following:

WARNING:  CRAZY, NEUROTIC BITCH.  BED AT YOUR OWN RISK.
