half and half
who ever asked the other out should pay
or at least help out
ex. a guy asks the girl out to the movies and she could at least buy popcorn(or other substance) or a soda(or water)
but it should be equil
anouther example if you pay this time the other should pay the next time

I enjoy having the option to pay. I am not a big fan of men that are so overbearing that they HAVE TO PAY AND CONTROL ALL. Give your self a voice and throw your nickle in!!
Prom is about having fun you worked hard all year get out there and live it up!! heart

Prom is a difrent matter but for me I feel that the guy (I) should pay about 55-75% of the time. Because I'm always trying to be nice and cheer up my girlfriend. It feels nice to spoil her some times.

Now prom. DUTCH is all I can say.
Unless your date is not in your grad class. If she isn't in your grad class the grad should pay for the tickets and grad stuff but let the girl get her own dress. (but let it not be tooo expensive)

Going Dutch is always good when you're like going to the movies and stuff but sometimes it's nice to have boys pay for things. ^__^

Finding a man that is willing to be a true gentlemen is almost non-existant now a days. Courtesy is a dying art in this world and it is a truely sad thing.

When out on a dinner, the girl should offer to pay either half or a tip. It is then up to the man to decide on how to take the next step. Before, after, or whenever- the man should open the passanger door for the lady before getting in himself. A man should try to order for the lady as a soft gesture of 'here....let me do that for you so you don't have to worry about it'. Hold the door open for her, let her go first...

Such things are so hard to come by and there will be a point that courtesy will no longer have a hold in society and it will truely, truely be a dead art.

I think if it's a place that everyones going to( the movies skateing rink, club( then the girls hould pay for herself If It's like dinner the guy should pay, That also means the guy should pick the place. Over all if your picking your paying. lol

I think that it's nice for the guy to pay for something for the girl - it shows love and affection. But doesn't that work both ways? I mean, a guy has to know he's loved.. and not just with a kiss or a smile.

My bf and I pay for things at about a 50/50 level. We don't go overboard; i.e. 'You owe me 50p', but we probably average out to about half each. We treat each other. When he was out of work, I paid for him a lot more, but now he's working again, we're back to normal.

It's never about who pays for what; it's about making sure that the other person feels loved. Paying for something for them is one of many, many ways of doing that.

Being that I am a lesbian and don't actually date guys, I don't really know that I am the best person to be putting forth input on guys paying... but on dates in general...

*clears throat* My philosophy:

The person that asks for the date pays. As I am usually seen as "the guy" in the relationship (which is ******** stupid, because the entire point is to NOT have a guy) I tend to be the one that pays. Chicks expect me to pay, and I do offer a lot. But guys having to pay is straight up bullsh*t. Whoever asks for the date should pay, or it should at least be split. Perhaps a deal (i.e, "I'll get this one, you get the next one...") but guys (or dominant partners in a m/m or f/f relationship) should NOT have to pay for everything. The beauty of compromise...

I think it should be half and half. Let's say we're going to the movies, I would pay for my own ticket and he will pay his own too. If we eat somewhere, we would pay for our own food.

they should at least offer to pay...but they shouldn't pay all the time

and they should at least pay for the first few dates

and never ever ever make the girl pay, never be like "you HAVE to pay"

Well if the girls believe in equal rights, then they should ante up.

agreed, i'm so sick of everyone talking about equal rights, but only for things they want.

I think guys should pay a lot of the time, but the girls should definately help out and pay the other 10-20% of the time.

I dunno about for proms, but I know that traditionally for weddings it's the brides family that pay for it. however, I agree with someone else on this thread who said it should be at best 50/50.. especially if women want to be considered 'equal'.
