I tend to think it's a bad idea to go out for dinner on the first (or second or thrid) date anyway. As was mentioned earlier in the thread late afternoon coffee or early evening drinks is a much better option. Use that time to see if you hit it off, pay a little attnetion then you know what sort of things this person likes so you second date can be something in that vein, preferably something active dancing, parklands walking stuff like that.
I mean really, even at best watching people eat is not a wonderful thing to do, and if your nervous or drinking your manners may slip and then you look like an ass. If you have been out with a person a few times they are more likely to let poor manners slide. Still most of the things on that list are ATROCIOUS bad manners and well... yeah if you do those sort of things you should stop, on a date or otherwise.

On the first date? I can't think of too many times I'd be talking about sex shortly after meeting someone, I'd hate to come off as easy. :p
