    Doesn't really matter. I'll offer to pay, but I won't fight for it, and if she offers, or wants to split it, I'll let her.

    Unless you offer to pay it, should be paying for yourself aka 50/50. Paying for a date has been, and should always be considered, a kind gesture and a show of financial stability; never an expectation

    It should be split equally if it's one of the first dates. Later on you can take turns paying.

    Unless someone offers to, I think the first date especially, even first few should be equal, or each pay for their own.

    Everybody thinks the guy should but I think that if you go on a date and you're not interested in that person you should at least offer to pay for your own.

    Usually the one that did the inviting. If the two are in a long term relationship it probably gets paid from a joint credit card.

    Unless she wants to have sex on the first date, she should pay her share. This
    doesn't apply if I was the one who went after her for a date.

      Back in the 50s women rarely worked and were expected to be house wives. Heck you weren't even allowed to vote. That's why men paid. But today women work to, do tines change.
