Eating in public?

Back in the day, meaning 19th century, there was a tradition in the southern states for young women to have a meal, before they went out in public so they could " eat like a bird" I just saw a commercial ad that implied this rule survived until the 50's! I was wondering, is there any women Still doing this? Are there any women who refuse to eat in front of their dates? Today most dates Are for a meal. If I like a guy I want to share a movie over a meal I'm a picky eater. But now way would I eat before unless I knew there was nothing I would eat at the restaurant. How about you?

I often skipped meals and ate lightly on dates, but not for those outdated reasons. I often dated young men who had little money. I also got so excited I would lose my appetite. Also I was under the mistaken impression that I weighed too much and that skipping or omitting large meals would fix it.My weight was actually perfect for me.
