    I don't know.

    I always just thought women were poor and lazy . . . .

    Don't forget needy and entitled!

    Oh yeah, and we might cry if you don't. :laugh:

    The question: "Why don't women pay for dates?" My answer: A real man will not allow it! I still try, after 18 years of marriage, to never allow my wife to even open a door. A woman is precious to a man (I Peter 3:7). A moral woman is more precious than fine jewelry (Proverbs 31:10). Thus, a man treats her delicately and with respect.

    Someday I hope to find a guy like this!

    My husband and I both paid, whoever grabbed the check first. Anyway, who cares who pays for dates? If you both have good jobs and both can afford it, it should not be an issue. It's just money. If you can't afford it, maybe you should be more focused on your career instead of dating. No. You should DEFINITELY be more focused on your career instead of dating.

    i don't know if i would compare a woman to an ornament, like jewelry.

    maybe that's just me, though.

    When my boyfriend and I go out, I pay. That is because I make a lot more money than him and I want to go out. When my husband and I go out, he pays for the same reason.... :smokin:

    Best answer so far!

    The only dates I've had paid for were from Craigslist :( and not even all of those! But I'm fat, so, it's kind of assumed that I'm a 'pick up half' kind of gal. Also my boyfriend hasn't had a job the entire time I've known him, so good thing I love him, cuz I always pay. Or his mom takes us out, which is fine with me!

    We already have to pay to get our hair done, nails done, makeup, new clothes, shoes, accessories, etc., because we "don't have anything to wear!" If we had to pay for dinner, too, we wouldn't be able to afford many dates.

    In my country, when a man takes a woman out on a date, the woman pays for everything. The womens family usually does if she can't afford it. I like my culture. Why don't we have that in the west? I thought women have more means of making money there. Why have the man pay for your food?

    I mean men here have multiple wives so its hard on our pocket. The least you can do is pick up a check...
