Going on dates with men who either keep scrolling the apps behind your back OR deliberately tell you in your face that they want to go on other dates while you have kissed them or slept with them already... nah sis. Why allow a guy to blatantly act like there's better out there? Like you are a placeholder? If he doesn't see how amazing you are after a first date he's wasting your time.

Yes, FDS recommends to multi date as a woman and to not put up with it from a man because, surprise, women are different from men.
We are the choosers. When a man is interested in you, the innate nature of them is to put their best foot forward for any woman he is actually serious about. Could you imagine a HVM risking losing the woman he really wants because he is screwing around with other women? I can't... because they don't do that when they are serious about someone.
Women shouldn't do this because men will put up a mask for a long time. Once the guy has wasted your time and you gave him immediate exclusivity, you put all your eggs in one basket for absolutely nothing and unfortunately, this will be the case with most men, most of the time. So it makes no sense for us and is a waste of our own time.
Once there is any intimacy, yes the scrotation should stop, but I wouldn't give any guy intimacy for months while I vetted him. This means, I go on as many dates as I want while I decide who is the man who is putting in the most effort and treating me the best.
There are so many reasons why this is the best strategy for women, but here are just a few:
You didn't allow anyone at all to actually waste your time because you kept your options open.
Men who are HVM understand that you as a HVW will have choices and options. Healthy competitiveness between males is normal. If he gets turned off by the fact that you have options, then he is NVM and can't compete. The weak ones will weed themselves out this way.
Men like to chase and well-rounded men understand the realities of seeking a HVW.
This makes you less available and less likely to fall head over heels for someone so immediately, too. You won't get so emotionally involved (safer for you in the long run) and it will help to keep your head cool about who these men actually are.
The only downside I've experienced in a smaller town while I had a scrotation, was gossip. People thought I was crazy or a "whore" for going out to eat with one guy one week and a different one the next. I wasn't intimate with any of them, so I let them wonder, but I know my values and none of these guys were getting any action. But just beware, in a smaller community, people will talk. You have to really decide in yourself that you don't care about what they say about you.
Woman can multidate. Men cannot.
We, as women, do not date multidaters.
Block and delete any man who has met you in person (even if only once) and talks about dating other women.
I think there is a cultural difference here between the US (where dating multiple people at the same time until you have the "let's be exclusive"-talk is pretty normal) and other places (where exclusivity is expected and assumed as soon as you go on a one-on-one-date until you both decide it's not going to work out).
I'm from Germany and here you absolutely assume exclusivity as soon as you go on a "real" date with someone or pass a certain level of intimacy (kissing). It would be widely considered an absolute no-go to go on dates (or make out) with different people at the same time. I wouldn't do it and would not entertain that behaviour from anyone. I think you're from Europe, too, Ansa?
I believe it's because we don't really go on dates with almost strangers here and get a lot of the "getting to know each other" and "basic compatibility" stuff out of the way before we go on a date with someone (during meetings in group settings, texting, phone calls etc.), so when the dating stage is reached it's already kind of serious.
Whoever would put up with this has no business dating with such a low self-esteem.
I mean, doesn’t the handbook recommend multidating? And withholding sex for at least a few months in? No matter who it is, things shouldn’t immediately get serious after the first date.
But yeah being dishonest is a quality that you can vet before you make things more serious
Be so for real. After one date? This is delusional and a great way to get lied to. You shouldn't sleep with them anyway until a period of close observation and exclusivity. And if they tell you that to your face they don't like you anyway.
By multidating do you mean when someone is dating more than one person at a time? (Not during the same date)
