I’m a liberated man, I am fine with a woman picking up the tab.

My favorite quote in the comments:
Because feminism stops when the check drops.

During the Summers of the mid to late 60s, I worked at a Summer Retreat which employed over 400 College Summer Staff and around a hundred full time.
One day at Supper, Mom Weeks, the wife of the manager told the girls that they were making the same as the boys and they should pick up the tab on some dates.
It did no good. It was so ingrained in the girls that the boy pays that they ignored her advice.

I have been married forever. Haven’t picked up the check in years.

> women may see the gesture as a patronizing deal-breaker <
Single men, take note. Now you have a simple and effective way to tell if you’re dating a woman or a womon.* (Unless you want to be lectured nonstop forever, avoid the womon.)
* nonstandard spelling of “woman” adopted by some feminists in order to avoid the word ending -man

Same here. In fact, I would be willing to be a totally “kept” man with the right woman!

If you do anything based on "some people may criticize" then you need to turn in your adult card.
There are certain people who's opinion you should consider. You should be ready to tell the rest of the world to go take a flying leap. Then you should be ready to take the results of your actions without whining about it.
THAT is what makes you an adult.

Apart from everything else, if you invite someone to dinner and pick the restaurant yourself it is only fair that you pay. The women probably wasn’t going to spend that much on her meal otherwise.

The woman often expends considerable resources enhancing beauty and feminine wiles for a date, the guy usually only has to show up and not be an asshole. Paying for the date balances The expenditures.
To: All
They still date? I thought they spent all day walking around malls looking at smart phones.
