    After listening to your thoughts, I can say with certainty, that you chose your username wisely.

    Just kidding, but I don't understand the point , it just adds up to another lame excuse, the tradition. If you believe in fairness and logic, it's not that goddamn difficult to pay for what you have bought / used.

    So if tradition dictates something disadvantageous for women, we shouldn't change it, right?

    But wait -- women bitch and moan (and seek legislation) when things don't go *their* way.

    What I think? Fuck women. I want to see their fucking skulls cracked, bleeding in the street. If she opens her mouth, she should get a rock.

    Be in peace guys!! Not an argument!! It depends on the woman you're with and how she thinks you're !! The best solution is to take turns if both have agreed to a date or the datemaker has to take the chance awkwardly!

    See here is my simple rule
    If a guy asks you on a date, he pays.
    If a girl asks you on a date, she pays.

    I fully expect to be paid for. The guy ALWAYS pays. Why? Because he's lucky I agreed to go out with him. I know I sound pretentious but it's the truth.
    There have only bee a couple of instances where I paid for myself and of course there was no second date

    What do you do when you've been dating for a while? I'll pay for the first two or three dates, but I would expect her to pay half after that. Is that asking too much?

    Honestly, you just have to be yourself. There are women out there who prefer a man to pay, and there are some women who are actually insulted if you try to pay for them. You just have to match up with your type, and don't change for anyone.

    as far as women not being allowed to work before that was actually only WHITE women, all other groups of women could and had to work to help take of their families. so, that excuse doesn't really explain "the tradition" among other women.

      That's not true at all. If you look at the middle east and Africa, it's still very traditional over there. Along with many parts of Asia. Actually polygamy still exists over there, and you have to have the wealth, property, and means to take care of her in order to marry her. They also have HUGE lavish, and expensive weddings.

      @Toad-1 look. I love my girlfriend very much. she's very much a tradional woman and to an extent still believes in tradional gender roles. she's kind, considerate, loving and a passionate, selfless lover in the bed who trys her best to keep me happy all the time. She absolutely adores children which is kinda how we met (work experience at a primary school). The other thing is I earn a fair amount of money for a 17 year old guy whereas she does purely voluntary work. So I dont mind paying for her to take me out. I still enjoyed the meal and it wasn't too expensive. But yeah I do think there is some truth in what you said sadly.

      @RationalLioness because they have self-respect and don't want to put unnecessary financial burden on others if they can pay for their own stuff?

      Having self respect has nothing to do with it, simpleton. What burden are they putting on the person who askd the out in the first place? Dont confuse your skewed bigoted perception with actual reality. There is no logical reason why someone would try and romantically woo someone while expecting them to pay half.

      @Mesonfielde If guys don't want to pay, stop going to expensive places and places that requires you pay, simple. .. I'd be very upset if I got to the date and he showed me the check of $60 dinner and expected me to pay out of courtesy

    I make more money then my husband so not only do I usually pay for our dates but car parts on his Camaro too. So to make it fair then make men be asked not to piss outside cuz women can't.

    I'll treat you the way men treated women traditionally, if you treat me the way women treated men traditionally too.

    Otherwise, it's kind of a waste of time.

    It's just me. If I go to the bar with a friend. First rounds on me. If I invite a colleague in business for a coffee, i buy the coffee. So if I go on a date and it's iniated by me, it's just me to pay for it.

    I pay the first time if I ask them out to avoid any awkwardness. any other time it's separate or take turns
    that's just what I do, I don't care for anyone having to pay everything all the time and feel used

    If I'm going out with you to get to know you to see if it goes anywhere, technically I don't owe you anything. Pay for yourself.
