I think there was something about opportunity costs - if a male's 'go away' detector is 99.9% accurate, there will be that one out of a thousand who might say yes. And if the cost to check is only a couple of minutes they wouldn't be doing anything useful with anyway... yeah. When it's biology verses society, the latter doesn't always come out on top. Especially when there's alcohol and/or lack of life experience involved.
