I’ve been noticing a lot of providers on twitter asking for cash to help pay bills, go shopping, spa day and other things that they might want. So why get bothered when a client asks for a discount.
Quite a few providers see men as their personal ATM... even those they've never met. They believe they are entitled to handouts for the simple reason that they are women.
Not only do they want the handouts, they want the gifts and the exorbitant rates should they deign to meet you. They see meeting you as some form of formerly-unknown type of "Dating" in which you shower them with material cash and goods, and they give as little as possible. A discount does not fit into the "Gimmee!" psyche. And no, it makes not a bit of sense.
Women are the ultimate status seekers. Why do they brag (whether true or not)? Because that reflects status -- they very thing by nature that they seek.
The sad truth is that out in the wild, 80% of women chase 20% of the men. The remaining men are in a seller's market. And that's why it is more successful for a lady to ask for free stuff than for a forgotten man to ask for a discount.
Men seek status to attract women. A high status male has a wider choice of women. The root of female status seeking is ultimately biological, associating with a high status male and obtaining reflected status among society, allows the woman's offspring to have a better chance of survival and passing on of genes. . This is still true today although much reduced in consequence. Nevertheless the instinct remains after the necessity has diminished.
