Should a Girl Pay on a Date?

Have traditional gender roles really changed?

Most folks would agree that changing gender roles have dramatically altered their lives at work and at home. Few people would argue that gender equality, especially in the workplace, has enriched the lives of men and women alike.

Men and women have been striving for equality during the past few decades, and it is evident that political, professional, economic, and social advances have been made.

But when it comes to "Romantic Equality," how much has really changed?  Do men and women naturally gravitate toward more traditional romantic roles?   Women want to be treated as equals in all areas of life, but  do they prefer being treated as a traditional lady when it comes to dating?

 
When is it OK for a man to hang up his super-hero cape, and let the woman save the day… or at least pay for the date?

Share your thoughts.  Should a man always pay for his date?  Many women may offer to pay, but do they really want to, or is it simply going through the motions of what may seem like the right/fair thing to do?

Please post your thoughts and comments below – and be sure to include if you are male or female, your age, and where you’re from… thanks!

    I think a guy should always pay. Some things should never change. It is part of being a man.

    if the guy is dating a real lady, and i mean a really good “LADY” then he will have no problem treating her like a lady. this wouldn’t even be a question.

    Yes, its 2009, but a man is still a man and a woman a woman. Be a man and treat your lady right. if you cant be a man and pay for yuor date, be prepared for her to fine a real man who is willing and happy to do so.
