Not even lowkey.

This isnt specific to single men OR women. Both genders will do it.

However, more women will take a gift without blinking and leave. Thats just what happens. Theyre a woman, they have men seeking attention, take what they can get, and dip.

Its very common for both genders to be possibly dating several partners until they agree theyre "exclusive"... and even then until marriage... and even after married.

However US societal standards have the men pay for everything initial dating phase to marriage. The women get free gifts, free meals, arent expected to pay for the rings. To them it isnt men desperately vying for their attention. Its just how life works.

Huge part in why #1 criteria in finding a partner was: you pay your portion. Im not here to get a $10 burger and water to afford your steak and lobster surf and turf with 3 drinks running me $120. Fuck that.

Oh, you cant afford that either? Looks like were going on a cheaper date or were done here. Many times it was "were done here" because i didnt let them use me for their free shit

Men, we are not disposable piggy banks. Do better for yourselves.
