[QUOTE=Alphapheemail;484747]Ok, maybe I did not elaborate sufficiently, it is not expected of men to pay, it is nice and women do like it. We are more conscious of the fact that the times have changed and how hoard money is earned. We do offer to pay and sometimes its taken and sometimes its not. When it is expected that the girl chips in that's when its a turn off, same way when the girl stands to go to the ladies room the minute she spies the check coming.[QUOTE]

I agree with all of this I would just add it depends on the man ...

There is something nostalgic, chivalrous and romantic when a guy says "Don't worry about it babe, I'm taking care of it."
I think there is a bit of a cultural divide here, as if a guy here used those exact words I'd have to restrain the urge to hit him. However, I'm sure if he used alternative words to say the same thing I'd be delighted!
