She really doesn't get it, people WOULD think badly of Angelina jolie if she said the same thing, the difference is though the article would be true and the backlash would be against someone who is so shallow as to boast about her good looks in such a way. The difference with Bricks article, is she's delusional and can't see why(assuming some men do buy her things) they do it.
My general take from the article is, she thinks she gets stuff for being pretty, but by walking around trying to get the attention of men she is merely doing attracting people who think they have an easy target essentially. A hot women who goes out with friends and MIGHT want to go home with someone, or the woman at the bar looking up every man with flirty eyes, most likely no friends, and one reason for being there is simply the best bet for a man.
Men buy women drinks to get laid, NOT because they are pretty, here she simply doesn't realise that she's acting like a tart, which will get you far more attention from men looking to get some, than being purely pretty. Jolie could walk into a bar wearing a moo moo and would still have every man lusting after her, but few brave enough to go flirt with her, Brick walks around with an heir of "you can buy my affection" the look of desperation and men in no way intimidated.
The article merely shows how both she's utterly misread the situations in her life, has NO clue how men think and hasn't realised she gets treated badly at work for the same reason, flirting with bosses and men to try and get ahead which will anger most women workers and gain exactly zero respect from male bosses.
Why did someone offer to park her car and get her a coffee, two fold, men are weak for crying women, some people just want to be nice, and the other side, vunerable crying women are again... a good bet.
