Men Are to Blame for Transactional Relationships: One Woman’s Story

We often blame women for making relationships transactional. We rarely talk about how men fuel this trend. A young woman shared a video of a middle-aged man offering her a ride while she waited for a cab. She recorded the trip for safety. During their conversation he learned she was a secretary earning about $60. He then offered her $300 for oral sex. She refused. I see her decision as a victory. She chose decency over a tempting offer, showing that respect still matters.

Are these transactional expectations mainly in dating situations or also in long-term partnerships?

It seems odd to blame only men when transactional dynamics often go both ways in modern dating scenes.

I don't think the example proves men always instigate transactional behavior; sometimes women expect favors too before genuine connection forms.

Perhaps setting clear expectations early on can reduce assumptions about financial motives in dates and help both parties feel more comfortable.
