Date night

Today, I got into a heated argument at a restaurant with a guy I am seeing because he refused to let me pay for the bill and I thought it was sexist. When he finally agreed, I gave the waiter my card, only to have him return a minute later telling me it was declined. FML

girl, it's just polite, classy, traditional. get over yourself it's nothing to get in a heated argument about, either. come on, if you offer to pay half and he declines, accept graciously. it makes you seem like less of a bitch.

Wow...there's really no need to get into a heated argument about it.

I'm sorry, but you really give feminists a bad name. Before you act like that, remember you're representing all us other feminists out there. You don't ALWAYS have to pay the ******* bill. Let him pay once or twice if it makes him feel good about himself...

That wasn't sexest... He was being polite. Guys are usually the ones to pay. Don't get those mixed up.

you stupid bitch. it's sexism the other way if you pay for the whole thing. the only PC way to do it would be to go dutch. OR you could NOT be a bitch about it and let him do this, which is obviously important to him, and you could choose something else to do nice for him to make it even without it being like a business relationship. YDI x23645246000000 for making it harder for me, a woman, to be taken seriously.

I don't find that an any way sexist he abveously liked you a lot and didn't want you to have to pay... And not letting him pay isn't that sexiest?

I can see if he's been paying a lot and you just wanted to pay to make it fair but calling it sexist is, well, sexist. Seriously, it seems a man can't do anything for a woman without a feminist calling him sexist. for the record, I'm female, and I'm getting pretty sick of how fellow women treat men these days. you could have settled your debate without pulling the sexist card. That's just a cop out because everyone knows nobody can fight that. I give you a YDI. Karma came for you.

Why are you paying for expensive food when you don't have any money? Wow, why are women so stupid when it comes to money? YDI

YDI. This isn't sexist, it's called "being polite".

It's attitudes like THIS that give feminism a bad name. As a woman I believe in equal rights, pay and so on, but I will never call myself a feminist because it has become so associated with this superiority complex and attitude that 'feminazis" have. I just don't understand some women. If a guy opens a door for me or lets me get off the train before him I smile and say "thank you" and if a guy were to buy me dinner, I would graciously accept. I would also probably offer to take HIM out since I *am* financially capable of that. All you did right there was alienate a gentleman. And those are hard to find. Good job. YDI.
