"we had an argument in a bar and I got up and left, then she sent the text,"

If you abandon your girl in a bar, you should absolutely expect to lose her, birthday or not. She is under no obligation at that point to consider his feelings about his special day.

You know no details about their relationship at all.

Perhaps she was being truly awful to him, and that prompted him to leave. We don't know.

But fuck off with that implication that women are weak and pathetic, needing a man around to protect them. If someone is being awful, you can leave. Doesn't matter what they've got between their legs.

If a woman I was with was being awful to me in a bar, of course I'd leave. She's an adult. She can deal with the consequences of her own actions, and she can look after herself. I'm not above her, needing to be her guardian figure, just because I have a cock and she doesn't. What a 1950s attitude.
