Should a man pay on the first date or split the bill? (Page 3)

[Oscarin]

It's the man's responsibility

[f_ckfeminism]

The man should always pay.

Ok, if women cook and clean for me, take care of the kids, treat me like the king, sexually satisfy me and don't complain about the fact that, as a result of being treated like I have to be more competent in order to earn my place in society, I am more successful, knowledgeable, but also lack empathy and great concern for others , it's a deal.

It's either one or the other.
You won't find a man who will play your slave, but also have a sense of self worth and a spine.

[f_ckfeminism]

In my world, the man provides for the woman and the woman is a housewife. I agree with what you said.

[Journeyman11]

I can absolutely respect that. There's more than one way to be "equal". If both of you make the same compromises and sacrifices, and contribute as much as you can to the relationship, who's to judge either of you for that?
At the same time, while you naturally don't have to date them, I think you should still respect the way men, who don't want to always pay, chose to live their life.

[f_ckfeminism]

Yes. Like you said, of course I do respect those who aren’t like that. It’s just that it won’t be me they’re dining with since I like my men to be gentlemen.

[Journeyman11]

Right... and women who don't do their fair share in return, won't be dining with gentlemen.
As I said, I respect that. I think I could actually arrange with both, as long as I have my place in a relationship where I'm valued, and each partner's understanding of their role in it is coherent and fair.
I'm sure more men would be willing to be a gentleman, if they knew that that effort is being honored.
There's just no point in being a gentleman if it's taken for granted, or you even get called a sexist for it.
You do you. 👍

He should always pay

[Journeyman11]

Women should always clean, cook, take care of the house and kids, and give me beer, steak and blowjobs.
Women should always submit to men.
Doesn't sound good to you? Weird.
