Why is it in the age of equality, men are still paying for 68% of the dates? (Page 2)

Question

New study on dates shows that men paid for the majority of male-initiated dates (68%), but women or both paid only 33% of the female-initiated dates.  Everyone on the internet keeps telling me, the one who asks should pay for the date. Some other interesting findings - 1. In more than 60% of the dates, the male initiates the date, pays for it and initiates the sexual activity. 2. Sexual activity occurs in 56% of male-initiated dates compared to 63% of female-initiated dates. 3. Women initiates sex in 13% of the male-initiated dates, the percentage more than doubles (30%) in female-initiated dates. So yes, if she is attracted to you and asks you out, she won't probably make you wait. 4. No money is spent in 26% of the female-initiated dates, whereas for male-initiated dates, it's 15%.

Because like many things with women, it only applies in SOME ways, not all lol. Ones that benefit them. And I'd be surprised by that %, I think it's probably still a lot higher than that?

Because it's nothing to do with equality and everything to do with who "wants" it more?

ArtemisSilver · Answer

Same reason there aren't 50% female bricklayers. It's not equality, it's more like the ascendancy of a specific few special interest groups.

You know you can insist that she pays her half. A woman that pays her own way is a woman that believes in True Equality.
