Restaurants across the country are offering dishes and menus for the “not hungry” date 😬
in Calgary will double your fries and add three honey biscuits, for the girl who just wants biscuits and fries for dinner . And the Tipsy Coyote in Scottsdale, Arizona has named their entire salad menu “My Girlfriend’s Not Hungry,” because no straight man would deign to eat lettuce.
Let’s start with the acknowledgment that it’s not a crime to just want three onion rings sometimes. The idea that your girlfriend is intentionally lying to you about how much fried food she wants is based in the men-are-from-Mars-and-Venus-is-complicated idea that women are always being coy about what they “really” mean, and it’s a man’s job to decipher it. At its most benevolent, it causes men to roll their eyes when women snag bites of their dessert.
But aside from the misogyny , there are many reasons why anyone might snag some fries without ordering her own. Maybe she can’t afford, or understands her partner can’t afford, two full orders of fries and is trying to be nice about it. Maybe she just really wanted a salad, because salads are great in their own right, and also one onion ring because onion rings are also great.
Grabbing a bunch of food off your date’s plate is a bad look if you’re still getting to know each other, but if your girlfriend asks you for a couple of fries, is it really the worst thing to give her some fries? If you really can’t spare them, you can always say no if she asks! But the option exists to actually have a conversation with your significant other and express your needs and boundaries instead of snarkily complaining about how women be eating.
