Singletons of New York City are screaming, \u201cSend help!\u201d<\/p>\n

The guys and gals of Gotham are going at each other\u2019s throats in a vicious debate over a newly viral dating prerequisite: Men must send a car.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Despite the city\u2019s various public transportation offerings, such as subways and buses, women on the scene prefer not to be seen hanging onto a strap in their glad rags en route to a romantic rendezvous. Instead, diva daters are demanding that their would-be Romeos treat them to a car service \u2014 if not, consider the outing cancelled.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And the seemingly uppity ultimatum is causing an all-out virtual uproar.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of my rules is, if a man doesn\u2019t at least offer to send you a car for the date, whether you take it or not, no date!\u201d said Savannah Pagnozzi, a Big Apple lifestyle influencer,\u00a0in a viral vid. \u201cNo. Absolutely not. We don\u2019t do that.\u201d<\/p>\n

The brunette explained to her over 471,000 viewers that she had agreed to go out with a potential Prince Charming she\u2019d randomly met during an enchanted night on the town, complete with drinks and dancing. But when her dreamboat refused to call her a chariot ahead of their sweet appointment, scheduled on a rainy evening last week, things hit a sour note and Pagnozzi ultimately declined the date.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Unsurprisingly, her sky-high standards triggered an avalanche of hate.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cPlease stop normalizing this behavior. He\u2019s paying for dinner. A good man will not put up with this,\u201d spat a male commenter, bashing the singleton for her\u00a0pick-me-up<\/em>\u00a0policy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSmart man. He just saved himself money for dinner and a car service,\u201d another critic quipped before wondering aloud, \u201cWhy does any man owe you a car service? Why do you women think men are ATMs and should pay for everything all the time?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSend you a car? What are you, Princess Diana?\u201d ranted an equally flummoxed fella.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI foresee many cats in your future,\u201d a jokester teased, prophesying spinsterhood over Pagnozzi.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSeek God and therapy,\u201d a lady-faultfinder urged. \u201cWhat\u2019s not okay is ASSUMING that a man is automatically supposed to do it. What is he, your chauffeur or your butler? Please, ladies, run from this type of content.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEntitlement is dangerous,\u201d another added. He dodged a bullet. Sounds like you\u2019re one of those women that just wanted a free dinner.\u201d<\/p>\n

The contentious \u201csend a car\u201d discourse now joins the growing list of dating woes that have sorely divided men and women in recent years. From warfare spurred over\u00a0splitting restaurant checks 50\/50\u00a0to cyber skirmishes about guys sending midday confirmation texts\u00a0hours before a hot date, gendered discord is constantly ablaze.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It\u2019s an unfortunate state of affairs for singles worldwide, especially those in NYC, which was just named the No. 1 place where the unattached are\u00a0most likely to die alone.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Still, sirens who insist that their suitors send a private vehicle are not backing down.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThis was my #1 rule when I lived in NYC. No ride, no date,\u201d a supporter cheered beneath Pagnozzi\u2019s post.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Women across the internet have echoed similar sentiments.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSome men won\u2019t even offer to get you a car home after a date,\u201d Katarina, a city content creator, wrote in\u00a0the caption of a saucy clip. \u201cOthers will add you to their Uber account.\u201d<\/p>\n
