I've been wondering for some time, who pays on a date? If the guy pays, does the girl owe anything? If they go dutch, is that female equality? Is it better for the guy to treat the girl like a lady? What do you guys think?
And if your answer to the poll is "take turns" then who pays the first time, and how do you mutually agree? Does it just happen, or does it need a discussion?

I'd say whoever wanted to go out should pay at least most of the bill. But thats just me. I usually payed, but thats because I wanted to go out.

It is common curtosy for the guy to pay.

It leaves a "I'm a nice person" sort of feel.

I think this.
Whoever asks out the other person, should pay.
This will most of the time mean the guy still pays, but at least it's a step in the right direction

Why can't the woman pay and be the one to give off that feel?

I'm a guy, but I think traditional gender roles, especially when it comes to dating, are bollocks. I say go dutch, or in an established relationship, take turns.

Well, just because I hope to enjoy the "I'm buying you" mentality that's still remnant in our culture before the feminists exterminate it (or switch it around), I'm going to say the guy should pay.

But allas, most of us are nerds and geeks. Any girl we can get a hold of, we should take steps to keep set female.

I was always told the guy should pay for the bill so... I will vote for that I guess. I don't really have an opinion on the matter...

D: But paying doesn't automatically mean you keep her, that's more when you've lured her into your dungeon after a few spiked drinks!

I don't think there are any rules. I like to pay, it's nice to do, but if I'm with someone who wants to pay, I'm not going to be a dick about it just because I'm a guy and I want to pay. It's not a big deal.

Usually it's the person/persons who is/are trading currency for goods and services. Also, I vote for "mandatory homosexuality for all".
