I guess Columbus wants to join Madison and Ann Arbor as the Berkeley of the Big 10 = 14.

‘Why are guys always expected to pay on a date?’

Is this a trick question?

I suppose the liberal answer is that it's because the woman only makes 77 cents to the guy's dollar, so it's only fair that he pays.

“Are guys always expected to pay on a date?"

Be careful what you ask for, ladies. You're going to create a generation of men who have absolutely zero sense of chivalry left in them -- a generation of overgrown teenage boys for you to take care of who want to sit around playing video games all day.

Plus, with 15 recognized genders now (or maybe by this week it’s 18), is there a sliding scale, with different percentages of payment based on the gender pairing on the date? Oops! My heteronormativity is showing — “pairing” assumes two on a date!

I think they did that already. Fortunately, there are still some normal men, and women, left.

The same reason that women won’t take out the trash.

Long ago there was an article about this topic. The article quoted Donald Trump stating something along the lines of “it is always inappropriate” for the woman to pay. I have tried to find that article without success.

I always went by the rule, whoever asks pays. I did the sorority route, so I had an event or two each semester. After the first few dates, there is always something I wanted to do and didn’t mind picking up the tab, or as an adult had my guy over for dinner.

Oh, I thought it was talking about paying a bill by the due date. That’s probably racist or sexist too though./s

They want male privilege without male obligation and thus far they’ve been getting it, so they feel entitled.
