I’ve been writing the Economics of Love from a female’s perspective simply because, well, I’m a female and it’s convenient to stick with one viewpoint. But the truth is, women are just as capable of pulling shit as men are, and sometimes worse. In the spirit of fairness, let’s look at some of the things conniving women do to hapless guys, as sorted by the mixed bag of principles already discussed on this blog:
Portfolio Diversification
Application #1: Some girls keep a group of honest, shy yet financially capable guys in their portfolio. That way, she could get them to buy her clothes, jewelry and spa packages. She gets all dolled up using their resources, then goes out and has fun with the bad guys. It’s called “Play with the Large Pxxxxxx, Marry the Chequing Account.”
Application #2: Marry the Chequing Account, Continues to Play with the Large Pxxxxxx.
Write Off
What happens to the nice, debt-paying boys after she spits them out.
Set-Up Cost
Application #1: Boy meets girl online from out of town. Boy wants to meet girl. Girl refuses to travel. So boy flies down to see her weekend after weekend, trying to catch her in between her hectic schedule. She doesn’t have a lot of time for him, and doesn’t care, because she’s not the one paying the set-up cost (airfare, personal time, etc.). He is.
Application #2: Asking the boy to help her out with rent. On the first date.
(Stay tuned for Part 2)

I'm rather inexperienced when it comes to the whole dating thing, so pardon this question if it's a newbie one: What's a "Large Pxxxxxx"?
the poor bastards!
I was referring to the male reproductive organ, in plural. Sorry, girlie locker room talk.
Ahh!! Thanks for clarifying. Of course, being honest, shy, and financially capable, and being well endowed are not necessarily mutually exclusive. :P
True. But for a girl like that, just because a guy has it all doesn't mean she won't stray. That's not how she operates: Why get one LV bag, when she could get five?
