He should have offered a cash bribe. That would surely have worked.

You mean like free food and drinks? Basically a cash bribe to get her on a date with you.
That depends on your definition of "worked".
HN wonders about whether our industry truly is unwelcoming to women, meanwhile people openly joke about soliciting prostitution. “Riff culture” and “it’s just a joke” don’t make it acceptable.
Lighten up. The obviously bad idea of offering potential dates a cash reward is what makes this joke funny because in the context of running a Facebook ad campaign discounts and promotions are quite common.
What assumptions are you making about the industry I work in? edit: And the gender of the person adversiting..
Prostitution works both ways in 21st century. Given how women sex tourism is rising, I wonder wether men or women have less against prostitution these days...
