[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this conversation is pathetic.   Women have fought for years for equal rights including equal pay.    Many women on this board complain about how men expect sex.    It's hypocritical for women to expect men to pay for all dates or even all first dates.    I'm in my mid 40's and have been dating post divorce for almost two years.  On a first date I always offer to split it.  If I like him and plan to go out with him again I'll let him pay if he offers.   But I will then pick up the tab for the 2nd date.    A few men I've dated insisted on always paying which I actually did not appreciate and for these men it generally turned out that their income or wealth was all they were bringing to the table.    If I want to earn as much as a man for equal work,  I should be willing to share the cost of dating.    [/quote]

Spot on.

What I also find telling is women here attacking him because they assume he has little or no income because of 20 dollars.  You people know nothing about him.  What we do know, date was lousy, she initiated contact with him after and said it was her being nervous, then got butthurt about the 20 bucks.

If it's only 20 then she should have no problems paying it herself.  All these assumptions about wouldn't walk date to the car, he has a terrible job just go to show you're not open minded at all and jump to assumptions. The lot of you are pathetic really.  I hope for OPs sake he never meets any of you  because you give other women in this area a bad name[/quote]
