Lol...
Men and women are equal remember?
No I never said that remember
So men and women aren’t equal?
Well I think they are so women can pay for their half of the date. That’s equality.
Not to me they have roles God them put in place not me.
I fully agree with that. However women wanted equality. Those that prefer patriarchy which I and the Bible advocate and do nothing about the current climate we find ourselves in are nothing more than silent partners in my mind as they benefit from the rebellion women are actively engaged in. So unless they’re doing something to fight against it, in my mind they’re accomplices.
Agree or disagree?
Therefor if women want equality they should be given full equality and they should pay for their half of dates rather than expecting men to pay as if we’re still in a patriarchal system.
Or we can return to that and I’d say men should pay in they type of system.
I didn't
Feminist usually hate ne
Ok then. I’m glad to hear, and after taking time to observe your behavior if I were dating you I’d then pay for all dates and revert back to being chivalrous so long as you acted like a lady. For the rest of these women I won’t pay a cent as typically they say they’re feminists. Anyone who says their a feminist can pay her own way and won’t date me once that comes out because I’ll end it. That’s for sure.
@Exterminatore

Not being in that agr group or knowing many people in it, I can't say.
I almost always paid when I was that age.
Something changed somewhere my guys did to and I'd pay like once after 3 dates just to give him a break
I believe we uncovered the root reason. These guys that “allowing” women to pay on a date that requested for are guys that are boys. Boys that were brought up in 1997 on with by the strong single female.
The reality is this:
In 1997, there were a total of 1,163,000 divorces granted in the United States. That's 4.3 per one thousand of the population. There are currently 19,400,000 divorced adults (1998). The median age at divorce is 35.6 for Males and 33.2 for females. The median duration of a marriage is 7.2 years.
These guys lack a male role model to show them what has been traditionally been passed down in generations…how to be a gentleman and have chivalry. It’s soo apparent throughout this post. That is the root, the males up to 25 years are primary parent was a self-made feminist who wore the role of a mother and father, which created these “softboys”
@BeesNectar: I was raised by a single mother who was a feminist, no less, and I don't expect a woman to pay.
Guys changed? Women changed and guys are changing in response. If you want equal pay and to be able to work you should pay your own way and stop expecting guys to pay.
I hate some of the women these days. They expect to be tre6like women in the past, yet they don't act like women use to.
@Logorithim
One comment about the restroom
Lol what's the problem
single mother but curious: did you have uncle? or a grandfather? you are in that age group where women became mothers at a younger age.
@BeesNectar: No, my mother didn't have any brothers and she was 30 when I was born, plus grandfather died when I was 4. I learned about girls from guys I played sports with who were a couple of years older than me as well as my own experiences. Back then, it would have been embarassing to expect a girl to pay on a date, although as a teenager I didn't go on formal dates like adults do, so this was mostly paying for a movie and pizza , stuff like that.
your saying you are product of the social climate acceptance. I applaud you for having the insight and self awareness to gather and seek the answer. Very forward thinking
Ok but why are you broke little boys offended over what @log has to say? the point is you little boys need to grow tf up, get a job, an education, and stop being pussys period. if you can't afford to take a lady out then dont bother her. period!
@nubianqueen704 : Appreciate the support. I guess they don't realize how many girls they are losing out on.
Nubian, girls should get jobs, and education and stop being pussys too. Any girl that doesn't value a guys time and money isn't worth it. I'd much rather spend it on myself and my friends. If you consider the risk reward benefit you would see that paying for dates isn't worth it. Even if you get married you still are lucky to get a divorce and loose everything. If a girl isn't going to put the time and money into I see no reason why the guy should. A long time ago women couldn't work and make money, so the guy payed. Now women are allowed to, so you can't honestly expect guys to continue doing the same tradition things if you as women no longer do the same things. You wanted equal rights, the extends into dating too. The way I see it is it is all or nothing.
*you ate
*you are
First off, I was commenting on your comment, not the question. Secondly, stating that the risk isn't worth the reward, and that women are to blame, because they changed is answering the question of why men don't pay for dates anymore. The fact that you resort to so many personal attacks, such as calling me stupid points more to your lack of intelligence than mine. Additionally, I did answer the question even though my reply wasn't direct at the question. I also find it funny that you call me stupid, yet it took you three tries to spell "you are.".😂
Too much time on your hands. Go make friends.
Maybe we are just dating the unemployed ones girl hehe
Oh I don't even if I date younger guys they pay even. I like guys who pee standing up
There has been a generational shift away from a legacy where women didn't work to one where women are at greater parity with men than any point in history. My generation (Gen-X) holds that legacy of women not working. I and my peers were largely brought up to be 'chivalrous', but that concept was borne out of one where women did not work and if they did their income was not anywhere near the man's. In that situation it was right for men to pay, but we call it manners or chivalry. It's tough to shake off; I always pay for my dates regardless of whether she offers to pay or not. Don't get me wrong, I don't have an issue paying, not one time but my upbringing is responsible for this behaviour.
The generations after mine, the millenials (Gen-Y) and post-millenials (Gen-Z) do not carry this legacy. In these generations there was much more an emphasis on equality, empowerment, and the 3rd wave of feminism. The average age of women having birth is skewed later in life, women have a greater focus on career and career development, and gender pay gaps are narrowing. All of this is a good thing and points to greater equality, but you can't expect that equality to come without a change in men's attitudes. Why would a 25 to 30 year old guy pay for a date when the woman sitting across from him earns as much or more than he does? Add in the inculcated themes of his upbringing; equality and empowerment, and what you get is a very different scenario than a generation before.
When you say "most guys 25 and younger dropped having their pride" it isn't that at all. The men in that age bracket see you as equals and don't have previous generations' baggage. What you are expressing is a bit of 'having your cake and eating it too' in that you can't expect those men to pay when you are their peer. There are always exceptions, but I believe you'll find what I've expressed to be the prevailing viewpoint of the millenials and post millenials. Men of my generation (Gen-X) are more apt to pay and we are generally more established, so if you want a higher probability of the man paying date one of us.
Why should they? Girls work, they earn money so are able to be independent, this is not like in the past when most women didn't work. Some girls even earn more than some guys, so feels unfair he beign the one paying. I don't understand that "guys shall pay" social dating rule. Why some girls do behave like you are an object you buy with free meals? Guys are humans, not wallets to get free stuff.
I feel paying because it's a rule it's awful, while paying when you really liked the other person and had a good time is worth it. I wouldn't like to be forced to pay for an awful date with a person I don't want to see ever again. So I don't think guys should pay for every girl they date, just when they really feel like it.
I guess more guys in their 20's just want to meet the other person and hope the same for the other person, not to get free stuff but to really want to know him, specially because some people in their early 20's might keep studying or not working, or have started to work and their incomes are low, so expecting someone with not many money to always pay for his dates feels mean to me.
Agree
*applaud*
I'm going to get lots of downvotes but I might as well be honest. In a western culture/society many young boys are now being lectured they are sexist if they refused a woman who offered to pay/split the bill (yes I have seen it with my own eyes at this yum cha restaurant, where a Caucasian woman had gone off at her date (an islander guy) when he insisted that he should pay since it was their first date). They are being educated that women are independent in modern society and the old ways "patriarchal society" are dying. Women no longer need men anymore since they are more financially secured nowaday. So when you go on a date, we expect you to split the bill or pay for us because we don't want to make ourselves look bad by being called out on social media as a 'sexist'. This is just my two cents based on what is happening here in NZ. Obviously, not every NZ girls are like this, but more and more of them are popping out here and there, where they expected us to say yes if they asked for a split bill.
If I had to guess its because women stated that we are equal, so some men got it in their head that women where telling the truth (even though everything in their life should have shown that this is far from the case). Others probably are too fed up with having to pay for women who give nothing in return and do nothing but explain to men how they are "strong independent women who don't need a man to take care of them" then imediatley demand that the man take care of her (but refuse to acknowledge what he is doing or give anything in return). So that could be it. Or it could be because men have been forced out of pretty much everything in society that they can no longer afford to pay for women because women have actively pushed them out of higher education thus cannot get better jobs, forced them out of jobs (as women are more likely to be hired, less likely to laid off etc.) so they can't afford to pamper women any more, i. e. they expect women to actually own up to their statements and be an equal with equal responsibility instead of having all the privilege and none of the responsibility. Though honestly I cannot say why these are just based upon what I hear and what stats say.
Why should they have to? Most women these day have their own source of income and have no problem spending it on things they don't need. How hard is it to pay for your own meal when going out? I for one refuse to have my meals paid for to the point where my grandfather and I will argue about who's paying. Perhaps it's because I don't like feeling indebted to someone maybe? But mainly it's just I don't like people paying for stuff that I'M the one using (or eating) and as for my grandfather he raised me therefore as soon as I started working I felt the urge to return his kindness.
Girl you're inexperienced and insecure. if you want to have your standards low from the start then expect to be treated like trash. get some standards
@nubianqueen704 thank you
@wowgirlq you're welcome I can't believe how low these girls standards are. this is what happens when girls grow up without a decent male figure in their life. The girls on here need serious guidance. im glad you're wise enough to not settle for bullshit despite what these ignorant/inexperienced people are saying
@nubianqueen704 isn't it pathetic
See I thanked real ones at the top 100 opions ten real men
Yes and most of the girls with these low standards are Barley in their 20's so they're naive and inexperienced. Then wonder why they get used and abused. its because they lack standards.
@nubianqueen704 and only Broke guys use the term gold digger have you noticed that?
Never heard a man with money use that.
These people forget they are dumb lol
I've noticed that the guys with nothing to offer say that. steve Harvey's book says ,"theres no such thing as golddigger." If a guy uses that term then that means he doesn't have his shit together
Because they think any girl that traditionally believes in that has to either be a gold digger, or stay at home if he dates or marry her. That's how ignorant it is. I always tell guys, that paying SHOWS your investing in her. A woman just has to be receptive of you and your affections. Its not that hard nor complicated.
I'm nailing the left their pride and wallet at home age
But you need to show you are invested too. If you expect us to do all the work then no wonder no one sees you as "strong independent women". You have to show us that we matter and not some free ride.
WHY? WHY THE FUCK should a guy want that or agree to that arrangement, you bloated egomaniac?
Don't you realize that, if guys considered that WORTH DOING, they'd DO IT?
Why is your time or company worth more than theirs? Why do YOU simply DESERVE stuff?
Why does HE have to earn YOU?
Why does only HE have to invest? And what does this even mean?
WHO decides that women JUST have to be receptive?
I know that's how YOU would fucking like it, but I guess those guys do NOT think that the world revolves around you!
It is not "hard" or "complicated", it's a shitty fucking deal that puts YOU far above HIM. WHY would a guy want that, especially if there's NO reciprocity whatsoever?
You're fucking entitled and egotistical.
@hindril
What? I honestly don't get what you're trying to say
A lot of you so-called men are bitter, angry, resentful, selfish, egotistical, prideful, tactless, have no class. How dare any of you boy suggest any of the kind of things you do do you not even read half a comments you're posting on my comment feed. Why should you have to pay? Because of women like me? Nobody's going to consider me an independent woman? I don't know who in the world do you think you talkin to but I ain't one of those feminist women and neither am I one of these modern day women. I am a woman that is a price and I Believe In traditional Godly values. I don't care for that garbage. I don't consider myself an independent woman. I do Independence when it's needed because in my life I have no choice.
You don't want to pay because it's zactly what I had said because you are selfish with me while you were asking women you're not married to let alone friends with to date them. They don't owe you a date the same way you don't have to pay for them. So all of you that are complaining of being babies. Stop taking in believing every woman is the same because you guys had bitter experiences with such women who probably used you. Relationship is not all about you it's about the other person and if you are not looking to invest in a person how are they supposed to invest themselves and you? Think about that for all of you who wants to behave so stupid.
I'm talking about with a first date since it was always you meant this always approaching a woman and asking her out, so therefore it should be your responsibility to treat her since you want to ask her out. If you don't want to ask her out and you don't want to pay for anything's don't ask a woman. Weight for a woman to ask you out that way she can pay since you want to be so selfish. If you and the girl had agreed prior beforehand that you both like to play together there is no problem with that, and I have no issues. But all yourgoing to do is be selfish, and thinking with prejudice towards women saying oh I don't want her using me for my money kind of garbage then you should not be dating women. Date another man then, like you're gay. The only reason your man want to be involved with a woman is for sex and that's it. That's why a lot of women are using you and if I find another man who wants to do right by them and I don't even agree with it.
But I can see why a lot of them are having hatred for the opposite sex and behaving the way they do. I can't judge all them but neither am I going to be picking sides. You did call yourself to be a man but you act like cowards. Men in the past have more decency and respect in a lot of humans calling yourself to be men of 21st century even do to this day. My great-grandfather did everything in the house and he did everything for my grandmother and the family. He went to work, he did grocery shopping, he did the chores, he cooked, he played with my great-aunt's and uncles, can you help raise the children, took care of you when you were sick, drove you to school, paid for things we need to be paid for, build the house that is still standing to this day with his own Carpenter hands, and everything else both a man and a woman should do while still in my great-grandmother and they had raised healthy well-rounded adults.
No, it isn't all about me. It is about us. If I want to take a woman on a date and pay for it, I am not thinking that she is a gold digger. I am not investing in her. I am being what used to be considered a gentleman, and offering to pay. I do agree that you said a woman has to be receptive of the guys feelings. A girl who believes in this is not a gold digger or stay at home. This is how it used to be because the guy would be the one offering to take her out. Now, it seems either one will ask the other out. If a woman asks a guy out, does she pay?
Many view does claiming yourself to be men don't even come close to what my great-grandfather could have done and he lives have been in his late 80s. Many men in the past would be ashamed for what many of you men do today. You are so proud of yourself you don't see the stuff that comes even out your backside. We're not you supposed to be living this way. But it said I meant if you choose to forsake the teachings of old for things that don't even matter in today's world.
Yes she does because she is the one that asked him out. No it's technically not so much about you because you are not married to that person yet. If you're just focusing so much and not getting married because you just want to be common in law Couples, that's why a lot of things are messed up the way it is.
These days women have no choice they have to have something for themselves because they can no longer rely on a man to do it due to that feminism nonsense. I can understand that a decent man don't want to be dealing with that because neither would I want to continue to deal with that. But it is no excuse to treat any woman who believe in Traditional Values even if it's not as traditional as it was in the past anymore that way. This is why in this country men are getting crapped on if not just in the UK. People needs to get their act together but if they want to continue to do what they want then suffer the consequences that's all I'd say.
If my great-grandmother was living today and she knew that she had sounds like a lot of these guys on here are saying she would have whooped all their asses. With a belt too. And my great grandpa Lewis will took a shotgun to their butt, and tell him to never come back. My family didn't play that back then.
That's what a lot of them need today. And if the girls was not being respectful to men they would have told them do not expect them to get married to you, or stay with you with that mentality. A lot of people haven't been taught better or rebelled so that teaching their own children to rebell. And people want to know why they're so angry all the time.
Im confused what are you advocating for? What is the solution you have? I'm not criticising your belief, im simply trying to understand what it is.
@SirRexington Do it GOD'S WAY. That is what I'm advocating for. It ain't God's way? It's no way. I can care less what you people do down here. I care about how GOD made it to be. That's why the world is so screwed up. The rules were simple. Your able to have sex? You good. You can't. Your good. You won't by choice? For the sake of the Kingdom? Higher calling? EVEN BETTER.
Those who wants it? GET. MARRIED. Have a blast at sex all you want AFTER MARRIAGE. Just treat each other right. Make sure it makes everybody happy and not yourselves. Do your duties, and what you both agreed with. When the kids comes, RAISE THE KIDS, help each other. And do not speak bad things about each behind each others back, etc. Not that hard. Can't do it? Stay unmaried and single. I am tired of seeing both men and women constantly broken and hurt but they asked for it and do what they want, but complain about what they want so badly. Stop making life more complicated than it already is!
It's really not that hard! Do right by each other. People have their reasons, cultural and spiritual needs that needs to be met. That is why I never bothered because of this crap. All I ever wanted growing up before I realized I had poor reasons for being interested in dating, is for SOMEBODY to just treat me RIGHT. And want to marry, and honor my God if he doesn't want to serve God yet, and just allow me to be subserviant to him and honor my husband. Somebody I can not only love by take care of. Who wouldn't abandan me or hurt me, and somebody who I wouldn't do the same. But no! I gotta have sex before marriage? Dishonor not only my body, his body, his family name, my family name, my honor and intregy, and most important my Lord who sacrificed himself on the cross for me so that I wouldn't go to hell all because of self pleasure? This is why God said 'my people PERISH for their lack of knowledge!' Sex is suppsoed to worship and please the Lord, not ourselves. We're suppose to join
together and be help meets to each other. Riase well rounded adults so that they can live established and a fruitful life full of abundance and happiness. It may sound a distant fairytale to you people. But that is because you lack that mindset and the ability to turn those dreams and passions into reality with a plan. A logical plan at that. Women needs men to be leaders. She doesn't expect much. Only worldly women with no common sense or haven't been taught better or foreskan what she was taught is like that. But a woman with statue and higher standards for herself would expect no less than what she deserves. And its sad you men don't commit to higher standards. As long as it's not unralistic, why settle for less? Go for what you want! But make sure what your doing is not going to effect yourself and other's future.
I would like to understand what you are saying. I got from your original post that men think women are gold diggers or want to stay at home. Yet you talked that men should be like your great-grandfather and do everything? You originally posted that a guy paying is investing in her, does that mean he should keep going? Some things in all your posts are back and forth.
wanted. But no. Can't have it because don't know who's the real deal and who is just another scam not looking to use ME. I can easily make 6 figures, have my own place, etc. But what good does that do for me, if it's not for me, since I cannot do that for a husband and a family? I might as well do it for the homelsss, for cherity, for homeless pets or orphan children and give the spiritual needs as well. Not for a selfish person of the world who doesn't know how to give without expecting something else in return for poor reasons, but always say 'gimme, gimme, gimme.' Especialy when they can't get off their ass to do soemthing when I kindly ask for it. Sad I do things without complaint, but somebody else always has to complain about what work needs to be done. That is not a man nor a woman. But a child who wasn't ready to stop clinging to mommy or daddy, just having their own place.
@hindril Yes. He should keep going. He needs the chase her. As she equally needs to chase after him! I am in no way saying every man needs to be like my great grandfather. He is who, he is. But a man needs to be all he can and should expect to be BETTER. The woman needs to challange him to make him grow and mature and do more things. To make him a better person, the same way he should challange her to be all she can be and vice versa. A woman is triggered to do right when she meets a man who humbles himself.
The problem is many men already have this idea that women are gold diggers if she doesn't split the bill or is just looking for a free meal, because they were taught that from other bitter men. When I pay for somebody. I FREELY GIVE. I don't expect anything else in return. I don't do that to other people AND I don't EXPECT them to pay me BACK. I WANT to do it. It is my DESIRE to do it. That is love. Sounds like many of them have none. And actions speak louder than words. I hope men understand this about women. We don't just see, we are built to anaylize.
We good love I have a lot of feminst and non feminst friends I wasn't saying anything personal sorry if I worded it wrong
See how the women can disagree and still be buddies men struggle with that I've noticed
To me, that has nothing to do with pride or any socially anchored practice.
Women want and must be equal to men and equality is also an issue when it comes to paying the bill and not only when it comes to demonstrating for equal rights.
But here again, you must leave room for exceptions such as if the girl is a student and the guy a worker, or if she is unemployed and her date not or if he invites her in a place that way too expensive for her income. In the last case, she could settle a fair amount, just to indicate that she is willing to contribute whatever amount she can afford.
If both are working and each one has a steady income, then there is no reason why each one should not settle their share.
Because I expect a woman to impress me just as much as she expects me to impress her.
I have no issue with paying for someone, I have an issue with women who feel so entitled to get the longer end of the stick that they have the audacity to make their issues about *my* pride.
The moment a woman suggests that she believes her role in a relationship is to "receive my affection" and that my role is to provide her with it lest she brands me as defective, is the moment I dismiss that woman as having nothing of value to provide me with.
I'm simply not in the market for worthless women.
Never drop those standards man, we need more guys like you around!
I don't mind paying for dates. But I don't thing gender should be a factor. If it's a new relationship it should be the person who asks the other out. If it's a committed to it should be the one who has more money to spend. Of course it shouldn't be a responsibility, and the other person should always be free to pitch in or cover the cost of they like.
We can agree to disagree love
You think the guy should always pay? Lol I don't always have that option. I have only actually dated three guys.
3/4 of time yes or learn to bare kids
What the fuck do kids have to do with it? X'D
@Journeyman11 what do kids have to do with dating? Really?
Lol 😂😂😂 if we had to wait for guys to get pregnant we would have gone extinct long ago.
I think that the asker is really a man with a female account
@HeyThere94 If that were the case I would expect her to talk about how horrible women are rather than the total opposite.
Or rather than a make prostitute just get yourself one of those dolls you can ride with abs and an on/off switch. 😜
How fucking dare you. Do you think because you’re a girl men HAVE to pay for you? Where’s the #equality?
Let me ask YOU a question. Why aren’t girls relationship material anymore? Why do most of them fuck like 4 different guys rather than date? Why are so many girls cheaters?
Yeah I’m triggered because I’m sick of girls like you thinking they’re all entitled yet they still want “equality”. I actually paid for a girl once and two days later she told me she just wanted to be friends because she “wasn’t a relationship type of girl”. My friends joked about that for months... I will NEVER, EVER pay for a girl on this first date and you know what? I don’t care. It’s not men’s fault. It’s girls who’d rather act like whores than be good dating material and why should guys pay the price for that? I’m not MGTOW or anything like that but seriously girls would rather get choked and degraded during sexy than to be treated well by a man and that’s the truth.
Fuck off WowGirl.
It's no longer in the dating "script" as it doesn't really make sense anymore. It made sense when women typically didn't have any income but that's a long time ago.
However, for anyone who has some common sense, they should realize there's some obvious exceptions.
* The one who has an income needs to pay for the one who hasn't.
* If you suggest going somewhere which is really above the budget of your date well, you have to pay the whole check.
So, if a man who's employed asks out a woman who's studying, he still needs to pay up, or he shouldn't have brought her to a restaurant in the first place.
It's not 1960 anymore, the economy doesn't support families afforded by one person. With that, the culture has changed. Rightfully so. The gender pay gap is gone. women are expected to get a job in most countries now.
I used to pay for girls but a lot of them as I got older felt it was their responsibility to pay for some stuff.
If the girl wants the guy to pay, I don't think that necessarily means she's a bad person. If a guy pays for a girl I don't think that necessarily makes him a sucker.
i don't think is about pride, i think it has to do with the current climate, you know: "equiality this", "equality that" that women are equal to men and such, so why would a guy refuse to pay the dinner? i can think of 2 scenarios:
1: they actually believe this and they believe women are perfectly capable to pay their own food. But this is most probably the case when asking to split the bill.
2: the guys who do this could be cynical or resentfull and does this to put women's wallets where their mouths are, because "you can't demand equality only for what benefits you and chivalry when equality is inconvenient".
i could be wrong of course, but that's what i think it happens.
I believe we discovered the root reason. These guys that “allowing” women to pay on a date that requested for are guys that are boys. Boys that were brought up in 1997 on with by the strong single female.
The reality is this:
In 1997, there were a total of 1,163,000 divorces granted in the United States. That's 4.3 per one thousand of the population. There are currently 19,400,000 divorced adults (1998). The median age at divorce is 35.6 for Males and 33.2 for females. The median duration of a marriage is 7.2 years.
These guys lack a male role model to show them what has been traditionally been passed down in generations…how to be a gentleman and have chivalry. It’s soo apparent throughout this post. That is the root, the males up to 25 years are primary parent was a self-made feminist who wore the role of a mother and father, which created these “softboys”
@BeesNectar i don't think is a thing of feminist single mothers, i'm not the son of a single mother to begin with.
Times have changed, society has changed. I'm allowed to have my own money and job now, I don't see a reason for someone else to pay for me when I'm perfectly capable of doing so. But, I do think whoever asks the other person out should be prepared to pay entirely.
How many times have you heard how girls aren’t even into a dude, they just went out with him for a “free meal?” Then they out smashing like 10 different dudes on the reg.
These girls aren’t worth it. Show men that you’re respectable women of value that know how to treat and appeal to a man and we won’t have a problem pitching in on a few dinner dates. It’s very simple!
Because here’s the truth, men shouldn’t be whoring around either, so they fact that women feel they need to for “equality and empowerment” purposes is complete and total trash. People have NO MORAL COMPASS. All impulse, no brains.
The third wave feminist movement encouraging women to be more independent radiates this idea that women no longer want men to take care of them, protect them or provide for them because the mere act oppresses them into being dependent on the men's care or something.
Younger guys being more open to learn what women think of men and using the internet more often than older age groups, they most likely assume all women want to be independent with taking care of themselves and the idea puts young men off from providing for women
Here's how I see it: it's 2018.
If I am working, and earning an income, I can pay for my own stuff. Any time I went on a date, I came prepared to pay for myself.
That said, the person who does the asking should at least offer. That gives the other person an opportunity to accept (and say "I'll get the next one", or something, thereby securing him/herself a second date) or decline.
This is the best female amswer.
There are cunt women out there who ask guys to hang out expecting him to pay for everything. Briefly dated a girl like this years ago.
@cavmanier if I ask a friend to lunch, then yes, I offer to pay.
Why go on a date if you can't pay your own way if necessary? No one owes anyone a hand out.
However I'm a firm believer that the asker should pay. If I ask someone out I'm not going to expect them to pay a dime.
Pride? I'm not wasting money so some woman i might never talk to again gets a free meal. Fuck that. Pride would be not allowing yourself to get scammed out of money. The first date should always be split so there is incentive on both parties to try and get to know one another instead of the woman thinking she gets a free meal.
Plus, this is the first example of feminist hypocrisy people pointed out. They only want equality in some instances, not when it doesn't benefit them.
I never said I wanted equality not one time
So...
you're falling into wowgirl10q's work. Don't fall for it, let her fall short hahaha
So you want to be a strong woman but also inferior? Or do you propose that women are superior which is why men have to do everything for them? We are fodder, slaves and bitches awaiting your beck and call?
"How dare you not pay for my food! Where is your pride? I am a lady and you should do things for me for no reason!"
@unomilkis1 im her friend. We just disagree sometimes. I still care for her though.
You may be her friend, but she has no regards for you. She does this often :')
@unomilkis1 thats not true, you don't know our relationship. So don't act like you do.
Perhaps ask yourself if she'd do this with or without you in this world LOL
Do you even know what I mean by "this" ? hahaha 😂😂😂
@unomilkis1 no. I don't know what you mean by "this".
Yea thats as clear as sky :')
@unomilkis1 instead of being smug, tell me.
I would, but you seemed to have utmost confidence when replying to comments such as "she does this often," implication perhaps being that you'd know whats going on already. You'll figure it out.
@unomilkis1 okay well I don't know what you are talking about but, I'm upset with her. So if you think I'm going to easy on her, you habe another thing coming.
And fuck spellcheck for not correcting me the times i need it.
Well I made no speculation of such, but if you say so then so be it :'). gl !
As they should, if your a women that favors and cries for equality in this world and doesn’t want to be seen as an object or property. Then you would jump at the opportunity to pay your own way in a bill or offer too. A date isn’t a free ride for food, it’s an audition to see what kind of person you are and if your even worthy of being with the one asking. I do have one rule I stand by. The person that ask someone to go on a date should probably pick up the tab for the first date and the first date only. After that if she doesn’t contribute in some way, shape or form.. that’s a pretty big red flag to me.. it baffles me that women want free rides in dates but still cry for equality in everything, and hates that men treat them in a certain way. Be different, contribute!
As for your update, same with a man. If I have to pay because of those social norms. Be ready to return the favor in the way I desire and don’t complain.. cause there are more female prostitutes than men. You know a lot of women will do absolutely anything but work for the money.
I think there is a perception that many women actually don't like it all that much.
Men used to do a lot of things 'for' women as part of a courtship process. Most of that came from a time when men had power over women, so doing these things made the guy seem kind and 'benevolent'.
Now that young men and women have far more equal power even if not identical, and furthermore, young women and young men have similar earning power, men doing these acts do not convey the old attitude of him being a powerful kind man, rather it sometimes seems like he is desperate and needy and trying to buy her attention. Since women find -that- a turnoff, many men are dialing those sorts of things back.
I believe we discovered the root reason. These guys that “allowing” women to pay on a date that requested for are guys that are boys. Boys that were brought up in 1997 on with by the strong single female.
The reality is this:
In 1997, there were a total of 1,163,000 divorces granted in the United States. That's 4.3 per one thousand of the population. There are currently 19,400,000 divorced adults (1998). The median age at divorce is 35.6 for Males and 33.2 for females. The median duration of a marriage is 7.2 years.

@BeesNectar I'm a married lone breadwinner, father was the same. But the world has changed, a lot. And women's reactions to men have changed not, just men.
TBH, men will basically gravitating to whatever gets them laid. If paying for dates gets them laid, they'll pay for dates. Some guys are not paying because they find that actually gets them more sex.
@BeesNectar. Thank for the divorce rate stats. Tbh Taht does not mean there lacks a male role model. Plenty of divorces have equal partnering rights, or there's a bother marriage, or the mother live close to her brother etc etc. It's a nice stat but I don't believe it means a lack of a male role model.
@kingofthellamas well here is the specific census. let that reeeallllllly siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiink in...
There is a father absence crisis in America.
According to the U. S. Census Bureau, 19.7 million children, more than 1 in 4, live without a father in the home. Consequently, there is a father factor in nearly all social ills facing America today.
I understand that men will do anything it takes to get laid but that's not what the question was about. It was about why this specific age group are okay or even have the expectation that this is acceptable when requesting a lady out on a date. let that sink in "LADY... out on a... DATE"
@BeesNectar and what I’m saying is I suspect they find ladies on dates actually respond -better- to it.
@BeesNectar Thanks for letting me know that. (I'm not in the USA). Again I would say not having a father in the home is not the same thing as young girls and boys missing a male role model.
It years of therapy...
That was taken form a website for this growing epidemic. It’s a real thing
You make me sick.
Forcing a man to pay for your meal like your royalty if they offer then its okay but just assuming they will is just sexist.
Good means I actually stood for something
Sure
Because most young women are constantly towing the popular feminist narrative that they are strong, independent and they "don't need no man". So men under the age of 25, who have been indoctrinated by feminism in our education system, are just giving women the equality that they claim they want. You pay your share of the bill and I'll pay mine, that's equality.
Aiiiight🙌🏼👏🏼
My friends with benefits was at least a gentleman enough to do this (first date). That being said we don't go on that many dates. I paid for another. We split the other ones. WOOW!
He's 28 though... lol
and I think I know who downvoted me but idgaf!
Well he’s getting benefits. At least you are not one of those cunts who strings guys on
Also, haters goanna hate... LOL
@MLGbreezy LOL I know you didn't downvote me, but I can't believe all these downvotes lol
@sonnysunshine oh hell no I'd have a real relationship with him if he was that type of guy, he's even cool with taking a mini break until the weather gets nicer <3
I got a friends with benefits going on right now. It’s a long distance thing where I see her when I’m in her state.
@sonnysunshine that's cool :) Sex is crucial...
No kidding. I treat her well on dates. There isn’t much drama.
I didn't I'd say
You are making women look bad
A real women like myself can pay for our dates. Saying that a man needs to pay is the same thing as saying a woman needs to be a housewife
Girl you're 16 and inexperienced. Dates to the playground dont count. have a seat 😂😂😆
@nubianqueen704 So you want guys to baby you and treat you like a princess? Lol grow up
Dumb and dumber 😂😂
@nubianqueen704 she's not a troll we are friends @Alone-Forever
@nubianqueen704
Thanks my chick
@qowgirlq thank you girl.
@Alone-Forever I'm a troll?
Look up all my post have Photos and 80% of people like me
@alone looks like your comment got deleted 😂🤣😆😆 keep trolling and I'll get your whole account deleted. you're too old to be this pathetic , broke, uneducated, inexperienced, and unable to spell basic words like "apparently ".😂🤣. You resorted to calling me the "N" word assuming my race made you look like a racist
You two are why a lot of people think women are just weak and looking for a handout
@nubianqueen704 Do you need your daddy to save your ass from danger and treat you like a princess?
@nubianqueen704 I am a tomboy who plays three sports (American Football, Basketball, and Softball)
I am no doormat, but the ladylike women are
@nubianqueen704
😂😂😂😂😂😂
@ToughChick
I'm a tomboy I have a gun collection am a MMA fanatic and practicer. I play every sport possible
What's your point? What's that have to do with paying for dates? Your wires got crossed at some point. Are you going to by your own engagement ring too?
Are you sure your not gay?
I have a boyfriend
You are not a tomboy, you are high maintenance
High Maintenance yes I'm an expensive Tomboy. It works out for me. Don't waste your money if you want to pay for a man. Get a 🐕
At the same time that you are submitting to men and being a gold drigger. I will working my way up to the top
I'm a therapist lol
What else is going on
With 0 debt
I let a man pay for that too...😂
@ToughChick
You will be working for his dinner sadly my love
Oh really
I thought that you were a housewife lol
No I'm single
Im serious get that degree but don't be headstrong to the point your hurting yourself.
Independent doesn't mean paying for everything it means if you wanted to you could😀

Chicken nuggets and chips cost £1. I treat my women good.
Sounds like you have been around too many immature boys.
I guess
Not having to pay is part of the beauty of dating an older woman. The gesture of buying a woman anything is to say "look what I can give you if you go out with me" being 23 and still in university means I literally can't afford to spend 50 pounds on a date, so the notion doesn't hold up. Personally I would rather eat that week than have a woman think "isn't he sweet" especially when women can be quite fickle.
Suddenly you've spent your money on a girl who wants sombody else.
It's called 3rd wave feminism and the crazy "women" it creates. The first wave was voting rights, second wave was equality, and now the third wave is the war on "toxic" masculinity which is really just masculinity. Oh and apparently there's no such thing as "toxic" femininity either. lol
Because women work and make money just like men now. Women talk about equality and being independent and all that but still expect the guy to pay. I think a lot of guys wouldn't mind paying though. It's women's attitude about it like they're entitled to have the guy pay for them that's a turn off. Some women say they would refuse a second date from a man who didn’t pay. That attitude makes the guy want to not pay.
I still pay but I know some guys stopped offering because they kept getting preached to about "equality" by feminists. Naturally that's not what women had in mind, but it's definitely a byproduct of that mindset. "If I'm expected to pay then that's not equality. Women want equality, therefore I won't pay for her."
The rules of engagement due to upbringing or lack thereof ways to be were dropped and more taught so t h. g ere is a direction of non interest to the degree we are on the same page why do I have do more and you don't? You were raised with scruples awareness and what actually works. That's why you are yourself with anyone so this way if there is a disagreement you can rectify it immediately and thus now you know the particulars to help you see what's right and right for you.
I believe if a guy asks a woman out, he should pay. Let’s face it, there is a descepency in women to men wages for the the skill set and title. If a man asks me out, he should be prepared to pay since it is his request because I have other options and places to be but choose to be there upon his request - not of my own free, sell will decision, especially when a female has a child that she needs to pay a sitter so she can go can on a date that he requested.
You dont say.. the legendary WAGE GAP?
So men should pay on dates because women choose lower paying jobs and/or work few hours? That doesn't seem right. + strangers shouldn't be responsible for your kids. That is your responsibility. Just because a guy asks you out doesn't mean he has other options. Your time is no more valuable than his. That self entitlement is problematic. Additionally, you can't really use the "whoever asks pays" argument because women almost never ask. When women ask at the same rate then that should apply.
Women choose? LMAO. ahhhh to be 21.
Women don’t ask Maddow because we don’t need man. Women lead very full lives. If a man – and I said MAN – asked me out, I expect him to pay. I have a plethora of other options including doing laundry as that is. much more exciting than being out on a “Dutch date”. I am reserving time upon his request.
If I wanted to go Dutch, I would go out with my GIRLS where I am guaranteed to have a blast and come home to my vibrator, where I am guaranteed to get off.
otherwise, if you can’t afford to take me out, then don’t ask and sit your ass home. I, as a Woman, got it. Woman can do it all without the man - have a baby, raise a child, have multiple fantastic orgasms, have fulfilling relationships, make our money, do our laundry, and repeat.
Your expectation of allowing a women pay to be there for you Entrrtainment is problematic as it is making the male. species weak and obsolete in the world of a woman.
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 oh my god!!! this is... she is the purest manifestation of this whole fckn century of genderwars!!
you should make speeches in tv to make a change in society! if all men knew this shit as it is men would change this world in a generation, please get a carreer in politics!
You do realize it takes 2 to make a baby, right?😂
And if guys wanted to pay for a for someone they would just higher a hooker. They are cheaper than most girls anyways, and you don't have to put up with them.
furthermore, guys can go out with friends too and have a good time. Men don't need women we just need sex😂.
So men are expected to pay, plan dates and be funny, yet you say women are their for mens entertainment? Seems the other way around to me. Look around at all the buildings in your area. Men weak 😂😂. Stop projecting your insecurities of yourself and others women on men😂😂
You also seem to be neglecting the fact that many women complain that they can't find a man. Lot of women that share the same opinion as you end up alone and bitter, because they can't find a man. Men that don't find a women live an amazing life. They drink, gamble, party and have sex. Women tend to be agaisnt buying for sex and they loose their sex appeal more than men when they get older, and can't even get any thr way they use to.😂
@nathanp97 you seriously sound like a whining pussy and are a disgrace to men. yeah it takes two to make a child BUT it is the WOMAN that takes care of the child, rears that child and makes all the sacrifices. WOMEN are majority custodial parent for a reason.
Yesssss girl...
@nathanp97 LOL like I said if you can't afford to take a woman out, then don't ask. By your response of "men ask women", clearly women are not asking you out. you want all the benefits of the pussy and expect dutch. LMAO no thank you!
@nathanp97 I am neglecting anything. the question was why don't men pay. Don't know how feminism got into dating but it shouldn't have. as a gentleman as it has been customarily in history, there is a courtship - not dutch (LMAO). perhaps you were not taught that because you came from an absentee father home with the single independent woman was the face of both the mom and dad but look it up. That how it used to be. That type of man is dying because of the lack men that stick around.
As technology advances, women do not need men. Vibrators take care of the orgasm, friendships and women power take care of the feminism, education takes care of the careers. Woman have the advantage. We don't need men. Even for having a baby or raising one.
Intelligent men know this, women have power because we have the pussy. End game.
@nathanp97 you are showing your age. let's see your tune in 20 years. You forget women like me are raising a daughter. The women we are raising will not ever need a man to pay dutch. LMAO if they ever will need one except for pure entertainment.
omg. ladies, with all the respect, that is just not reality, thats ideology.
women makes no more sacrifice than men, when its your kid its in your blood to love them, care for them, regardless of your gender. its just human.
Men pays. men pays for everything they can for their child, many times even more than that. and a child - statistically speaking - is yet the simple best risk management for financial security of a woman, if the father is relatively rich. custody through jurisdiction is ridiculously biased, it has nothing to do with sensible thinking nor facts, i work with lawyers, I've seen it all. they want the father to pay and the mother to raise them, pscicologically thats not for the best interest of the child, thats for the best interest of the mother.
Women can't have it both ways. You can't have equal pay, work and expect to not have to pay your way in this world. Guys are fine without girls and there are single fathers. You say you don't need men, but why do so many women bleed guys dry with alimony and child support?
Men didn't use to leave women that often, but self entitled women like you started to emerge and now you can't really blame guys for leaving. Not to mention women (depending on where you live) have the right to choose to be patients. Guys don't ever have this choice. If they don't want the kid they still get stuck with child support.
@Northern_star I work with attorneys too. the fact is women are raising these boys. we have coddled them and this is the end result. the lack of a male role model is apparent.
Women don't need men. Technology and current society views have given women all the advantages to have the man obsolete (if we so choose to).
congratulations.
@Alone-Forever if only that could be done as I would love to see that. men raising children without any female help from birth to independence. I wonder what woman essential component would be missing.
@Alone-Forever as well how much therapy it would take for that child be society acceptable. would be a very interesting experiment from a healthy distant distance.
@Alone-Forever I believe we discovered the root reason. These guys that “allowing” women to pay on a date that requested for are guys that are boys. Boys that were brought up in 1997 on with by the strong single female with absent fathers and possibly grandfathers.
The reality is this:
In 1997, there were a total of 1,163,000 divorces granted in the United States. That's 4.3 per one thousand of the population. There are currently 19,400,000 divorced adults (1998). The median age at divorce is 35.6 for Males and 33.2 for females. The median duration of a marriage is 7.2 years.
These guys lack a male role model to show them what has been traditionally been passed down in generations…how to be a gentleman and have chivalry. It’s soo apparent throughout this post. That is the root, the males up to 25 years are primary parent was a self-made feminist who wore the role of a mother and father, which created these “softboys”
I’ve yet to have met a man that can raise a child from a baby to college. I have nene met one.
Probably because all women want equal to men so yes they should pay for their own food.
If I was on a date I'd at the very least pay for my own food
You just don't like a women who thinks for herself and has control of what she does.
@Johnnie1000 sorry you weren't on update
What is her point?
If women are going to be like this one who m's called witty... bla bla bla don't know what her nickname was... for sure their going to pay and that's if she ever gets a date 1st... and if a girl is going to defend such rat, she will be worst then her!
By the way this question was asked a hundred of times and like i always say, a woman who is with me never pays also so she be ready to accept the fact that her future man is going to be responsible for her, taking good care of her and providing for her... cause she's going to become a housewife... at least with me this is the way.
I don't know how other guys do thing but I was raised with the understanding that Real Men always paid for the entire date that he planned for the date but always try to be prepared for the unexpected (carry credit cards or lots of cash) impromptu date changes
It's because a lot of women want to be independent and have screamed quite loud about it and guys are listening and following. Women have fought very hard for equality and now their getting it having to foot half the bill. Then you have the third wave of Feminism.
@HereIbe 💓 well you know ladies are sensative. I knew they would like that. Thank you for standing when u pee
A gentleman will pay when we are on a date with a lady, not a woman. Like attracts like, leaving the rest out of the loop. Consequently, we are left with just chicks and dudes. Ironically, while the dudes know that their not gentleman, some of these women are under the false impression that they're ladies, not chicks. The title of "lady" or "gentleman" are earned, not owed. This is a lesson that many women are learning the hard way.
I Think we should split. Because I beleive in equality. But sometimes if I make a real I can pay for his meal and next time he can pay for mine or whatever
*deal
because many men and women are moving away from antiquated gender roles of centuries past.
Wow something I actually agree with you on for once.
@sonnysunshine everyone can find common ground.
so regarding your update you basically equate yourself to a prostitute. a male paying for dinner for you is basically buying your sexual services?
He’s paying for her “presence” and she doesn’t have to do anything at all.
@sonnysunshine yeah like I would a male prostitute 🤣🤣😝
I'm in charge now
madhatters - A female with a male profile
@malegender he’s usually a SJW times a 100. But actually agree with him on this one. He understand equality means equality. That’s means these bitches should start paying their fair share.
@sonnysunshine so i guess you are a sjw
@malegender because i think we are moving away from antiquated i'm a female with a male account? uh huh
because i dont know if you are willing to even give loving and being with me a chance... 90% of women i went out with act like its all casual and they will forget about me an hour after the date.
A smart person doesn't invest where he doesn't profit, i will invest emotionally and financially if i am sure she's worth it , i paid for gir, s before after they showed me they are serious about me, otherwise iam not interested.
I wouldn't want him to. I have gladly always split bills my whole life. It's odd though since most men want to pay for me (so I'm not sure if this rejects your questions hypothesis) but I'm the one who feels awkward to let them pay.
Under 30 men , dont pay for anything. Dinner, flowers, or gifts. I guess they play games instead of working.
They better learn how to bare children then
They won't pay for them either
I asked younger women I have worked with, if he ever bought her flowers? no, Candy? no, I said
you are kidding me? no
No chair pulled out for you or doors opened either.
That statement is far more relevant to women rather than men nowadays.
Too much mom's boys I guess
Anyone tell you that you like a young Barbara Bach?
Pussies is the word or ladies?
Yes thanks
You're fucking stupid if you think you deserve anything, just because you have a womb. Dumb like a brick.
And by your own logic, you first have to get a test that proves that you're fertile.
If you can't bear (that's how you spell that, by the way. this is my second language and even I know that) children, you don't deserve anything, after all, right?
And your womb isn't even worth that much anymore, if you're 30. Soon it'll be worth nothing.
See what I mean?
not all male prostitutes and strippers are attractive. Now have you ever paid a male prostitute?
You are just a lazy woman who wants to date guys for a free meal
Go to work
I have the day off but my girlfriend is working
I will be cleaning today
Remember to cross your legs and pull down your skirt
@Wowgirl10q
@nubianqueen704
You both need to get a life. You both expect a guy to pay for you everytime or close to it when you go out regardless who made the plans. I believe that if a woman works and is not willing to pay for herself on a date then she is not going to be willing to help out financially down the road. You two looking doen on women that are willing to pay is sad. Why should the guy be expected to pay?
It's 2018 woman are independent. Paying for a random woman's date lowkey is prostitution.
Now if you know her I guess that's fine.
I'd recommend only paying if you think the date going well.. if not call the check book and pay half.
Think with your brain not your dick gentleman
Are men supposed to pay? Is it a date or a free food party?
😂😂
The thing is, the inviting party is the one that should pay. At least in my opinion. I’m a little young and I haven’t been on many dates so yeah. But I personall don’t think that a man is obligated to pay and that’s why I feel men aren’t anymore. They’re rebelling from the norm. Saying men HAVE to pay on dates is like saying women belong in the kitchen
I payed most of the time, especially when the girl offered to split. I can understand why some guys don't pay, it is a bit unfair that guys always have to pay and that's why I split when the girl assumes I have to pay. I pay to be kind not because I'm supposed to
Unless the chick I'm dating insists on paying I always pay but I grew up developing my own honor code and thats in it so I don't know about other guys
Good
I thought I read on this site that men and women are equal. You know, all the feminist questions.
I'm not I feminst my love
I never said I wanted to be equals ever
never said so. I said on this site.
I pay for my own, my boyfriend pays for his own.
If i invite him to a meal, tea, ice cream etc.. I pay, and if he invites me then he pays. I think its fair
Because some women will just go out on a date with a guy for a free meal
Okay
It might also be that they are saving their money to spend on other girls they like more than you
I always insist on paying.
I think the problem with most younger guys not paying can be partially attributed to the modern feminist movement.
Example: my brother was recently visiting relatives in California, our half sister and neice were genuinely shocked when he held the door for them.
Modern society has begun to demonize men for acts of kindness because it is assumed that they are trying to get something out of it.
Well one upvote and one downvote isn't bad. 😅
Because of liberal and feminist crap. Because it's no longer cool to teach young men to act like MEN. My thoughts, if I invited the young lady out it's entirely on me. If she decides or wishes to pay for her part, by all means support her decision.
Because it's 2018 and woman can pay for themselves! Why don't they pay? You have to "impress us" also! Shows you're not in it for a free ride either. Shows respect also.
Because you are equal to your partner meaning both pay. Don’t you have money?
I paid when I took a homeless man to dinner.
Right or a hooker
I am not a hooker! Sex doesn't interest me.
Not you silly
Well, I'm just saying he couldn't afford to pay. It wasn't a date but it's the closest I've had in a long time.
