So you go on a dinner date with a woman.....order a nice meal and then you the male asks for the wine list. No prob.
You...Being THE guy ponders over the wine list and then asks the drinks waitress :Do you have any leg opener wine?
What the hell is going through a guy's brain to make him ask such a thing? Sure the option is there to think it, but why say it in front of your date???
Sorry but it placed a RED flag on my date as I assumed the guy was either over confident or just plain mad.
So guy's/gal's what have you had thrown at you? How did you handle the situation?

That's really a stupid thing to say on his part, I agree with you. Totally rude. Perhaps he was joking... that's the only thing I could think that would at least mildly mitigate the imbecility of that comment.

How did you react? How did he react when you reacted?

Besides, all alcohol beverages decrease inhibitions, so one could argue that, in a way, all wines are leg openers for both sexes. But thinking it is one thing, saying it at the beginning of a date as a comment is another.

"I'm not wearing any panties," the most cliché come-on attempt to date. Most men would be aroused by this, but I'm repulsed. Why? Panties sounds so juvenile. When a woman says "panties," she might as well cross it out and replace with "diaper". True story.

Personally, I ask for panty wine, and if I get wien; then I know its time to sneak out the back door.

Absolutely nothing! Nervousness caused by not knowing the "right" thing to say will cause some guys to the locker room material as filler to contemplated conversation. Usually it doesn't happen until after a few drinks but hey, this guy was special.

You could always respond that his question was unexpected and seemingly rude but you'd rather ask what he meant by it rather than make a false assumption. If he's cognizant of what he said and it wasn't his normal character, there's a chance that he may apologize. If his ego has the best of him he may act oblivious to what he has said and may even defend it as being just a harmless joke. Either way, it's your call on how you'd respond given your interpretation of his semaphore.

How did you react?
.....I enjoyed the meal and the wine, however those words (Leg opener) remained in my brain and when the evening was over there was no 'Maccona' on offer!

On occasion, especially in front of a girl I like, I've been known to say stupid things and I don't realize how bad it comes across until it's out of my mouth and too late.

For example, I was out one nite and there was a girl wearing some rather interesting plaid pants which I thought were really cool. So I started talking to her and she said how her friends had been making fun of her all nite to which I responded "Look at my shirt, I'm used to getting flack for ugly clothes", which she took as an insult to her clothes and that pretty much killed the conversation.

So it's tough to say, maybe he was a jerk or maybe he was trying to be funny and failed.

Do you have any leg opener wine?


I found it funny. I'm really a 13 year old boy.

Was it a joke? Not sure I'd pull that one out of my repertoire on the first date but I could see it being an attempt at humor. Not that he wouldn't have loved for you to have reacted favorably to it as a goal, but still it seems a like a lighthearted flirtaceous attemp at humor.

".....I enjoyed the meal and the wine, however those words (Leg opener) remained in my brain and when the evening was over there was no 'Maccona' on offer!"

So you weren't digusted enough to immediately end the date, you punished him by making him spend the money for the wine and the meal, and you enjoyed yourself?

Nobody else here sees a disconnect? LMFAO.

Thank you OP, that was a funny one.

Lighten up. It didn't bother you enough to ask him about it. However you drank it, and let it fester in the back of your mind throughout the dinner.
You could have had a lot of fun with that. I would have smiled and asked the waitress,
"Just bring us a bottle of your finest champagne, and let my friend here show us how to open it between his legs and see if he can make the cork disappear"

I'm a guy and guys like that pi** me off and just make my life more difficult because of the perception this idiot just reinforces in women. I'd buy the most expensive meal on the menu. If I drank, I'd order the most expensive drinks, then just before the waitress clears the table I'd excuse myself for a restroom break and call a cab. While waiting for the cab, I'd have some desert, coffee, and or an after dinner drink, and when the cabbie shows up look this A**hole in the eyes and say, " Damn... guess she brought the WRONG fricken bottle of wine. Get up, get in your cab, and cross Bozo off your list when you get home. But that's just my humble opinion.

It rather sounds as if he had already had *more* than enough wine.

But here's a *real* competition: what could you possibly say to come back after delivering a line like that?

Oh, I'm sorry, that sounded absolutely terrible, didn't it. "Laegopaener", it's actually an Austrian Eiswein, an ice wine, I was thinking of an ice wine with dessert.

I'm sure someone out there can come up with better.

I am guessing there was no lemon gin on the menu?

Some times the male appendage controls the brain and it is allowed to voice it's opinion.

FYI guys don't get much smarter about dating as they get older. Laugh it off. Then politely decline a second date.

Yeah, that's tacky.

Even if it was meant as a joke, and the guy and his date were at a point where a joke of that nature would be funny, saying it to the waitress would always be idiotic.

I think it's funny... good line.

I should say, a women with the appropriate sense of humor would have had a laugh too. It was obviously not the joke for you. It then turns into tacky and presumptuous.

All depends on the person's sense of humor. He should have been a better judge of yours.
