I once again feel somewhat justified in my observation that guys should pay for dinner.
Women do many times work harder just to gain some respect at work that guys often get as a given. Perhaps we will never have equality in the workplace simply because “we are NOT equal”. Thankfully, men and women have different and complimentary traits and needs.
Study reveals male-female pay gap trend
The organization found that women’s scholastic performance was not reflected in their compensation. Women have slightly higher grade point averages than men in every major, including science and math. But women who attend highly selective colleges earn the same as men who attend minimally selective colleges, according to the study.

I think that the reason guys are maybe overpaid at the same job that a woman would work at is BECAUSE women expect to be treated to dinner. So in a way… because we are expected to pay and it has been a tradition.. THAT is why men get paid more.
Also.. Im wondering.. if a man makes LESS than his honey… do you think that the man should pay in that situation too?
I think it should be dutch at much as possible.
Here’s my deal with guys and dinner: If I pay for dinner it feels as though I’m wooing the guy instead of the other way around. Being the wooer to me is a turn off. Therefore having to pay for dinner is a turn off. So, even if he makes less money, yes I’d like him to pay for dinner, unless he’s my brother, my father or just a friend. I also feel that the paying for dinner thing may be cultural. In the DR, for example, guys will pay for dinner for their female friends (or at least they did when I lived there). What can I say dude, I just feel strongly. And how the heck are you?
I think youre right about the paying for dinner thing being cultural. in one country it may be tradition in another country.. not a tradition. I think in the usa it has been a tradition. however with women gaining more and more equality these days… more and more couples are going dutch. I dont think a girl should pay for dinner though. its either dutch or the guy pays. unless the guy forgets his wallet or something like that. but what if two guys go on a date. then what? or two girls go on a date? then who pays? ive been good. things are nice.. how ’bout you?
.. and i wouldnt mind taking you out for dinner sometime again. that is.. if youre not involved with anyone right now.
