A Dating Rule?

As a woman, how would you react if you heard a man say, “She is a woman, she should offer to cook me meals.” It would not sit too well with any of us I think. In the past, we accepted certain roles: men were the hunter/gatherers or the bread winners while women stayed home to take care of the cooking and the children. But these days, both men and women work, so naturally the old roles have to be adjusted. Cooking and taking care of the kids should be shared, if the bread-winning is shared. Agreed?

Then how would you react to this statement made by women, “He is a guy, he should pay or offer to pay when he takes me out on a date!” Isn’t it also true that since both men and women work and earn money, it is only fair that both should be expected to split a bill even if it is a first date? If we agree that the old roles are changing, why do we women keep holding on to this one? What do you think ladies;) ?
