Why do most guys pay for everything when dating ?

Question

and how can alot women be so selfish to let them do this ?

Answer 1

If anyone, male or female, wants to buy me something, who am I to argue? There is nothing selfish about graciously receiving a gift.

Answer 2

What a load! Honestly it is just a big steamer, I pay half of everything with my boyfriend. Everyone I know does too, stop trying to manipulate people. Either that or hang out with a better class of person. It's not up to me to tell you who does/should do what, but I will say you don't know ****.  

Answer 3

Men take s*x when it offered to them on a plate so we can d**n well expect dinner on a plate. No skimping mind you, a full three course meal is expected.

Answer 4

one of the perks of being a woman...

Answer 5

It is based mostly on tradition.  It is not the selfishness of women.  Most men would feel emasculated if the woman paid.  

Answer 6

its there duty

Answer 7

They shouldn't. She should offer to treat every other night out, or split the tab.

Answer 8

Because the idea that women can afford a meal and a movie ticket has yet to catch on for a lot of people.

Answer 9

It's a remnant of pre-feminism that the feminist is not fighting to remedy.

Answer 10

I know a lot of women who insist on paying her part of the tab....or will swap you got this dinner I'll grab the next night out.  Kinda thing.  I do, have since maybe my senior year of HS.

Its a social expectation, let over from when men had to provide for the women.  He paying for dates, dinner and such was suppose to prove he could take care of her.  

I did come across a few men that would get upset, some even offended when i would said I'm paying....lost a few second dates with some of them.  Shrug not that I'm too worried wouldnt have lasted anyway.

Answer 11

Lack of communication
