I find a claim that women talk men into going to the city,
against the better financial judgement of men, because women
don't have to foot the bill to be pretty sexist. It makes a
huge generalization that is demonstrably false regarding women
wanting to go to the city more often and in women not caring
about financial realities and in women not having to foot the
bill. If you can't see that is out of line then I am sorry.
But I believe it certainly is.
