Weekly Discussions: Who Should Pay For The First Date, He Or She?

‘What a man can do, a woman can do it better’ was once a theme of the “All women Beijing Conference”…. I believe in gender equality and I know almost every woman believes in that as well.

As much as women prefer to rock shoulders with men, certain times they acknowledge without contempt that men are “superior” especially when money has to be paid. The word “superior” is used loosely in my sentence.

This weeks discussion centers around First Dates. Who do you think should pay for first dates? I have always thought that when the man asks for a date, he is supposed to do the paying. Same way when a woman asks a man for a date, she is supposed to pay.

Yet most people think differently as to who should pay for the first date. What has been your first date experience if any and who paid for it?
