The 2nd Date Vetting Test: Why a Man NEVER Pays for the 2nd Date (Make Her Cook)

The podcast centers on dating strategies, specifically why men should require women to "audition" for a second date by demonstrating effort and investment. The core argument is that men often undermine their value by pandering to women, leading to unequal dynamics. The speaker advocates for second dates to occur at home, with the woman cooking, to test her willingness to contribute to the relationship. Excuses from women about discomfort or being too busy are red flags, signaling a lack of interest or an entitlement mentality. By prioritizing effort over generosity, men can shift the dynamics, ensuring women are genuinely invested rather than seeking free experiences.
