For 50/50 / in another era men had / to pay. Today … so that woman don’t feel …to men . I believe that men should pay on the first date to show … As far as the other dates are concened the person who invites shoald pay. Fernandes ramos rita
I think doing 50/50 on the first date can be reasonable since you don't really know eachother well enough to pay for eachother. Though it also depends on who set up the date. For example if you invited somebody out, you can expect them to believe that you are going to pay for them since it is courtesy. If you both decided on it then I think it should be normal to both pay for yourselves. In general, I think you should decide together before the date since it can easily ruin it if there is a disagreement while paying.
the first date is very important, it’s the opportunity to impress the person with whom we hope to have a lovestory. It’s necessary to woo a woman and show gallantry. I think splitting the bill makes the atmosphere awkward, because you have to calculate what everyone has eaten etc. The best is that one pays for everything.
First of all, Gallantry is lost nowadays and even if the world and cultures evolve I find it important to keep some morals ingrained.
To my mind, I think that the man should pay the entire bill. Firstly because I think it can be an embarrassing moment if they do 50/50. Furthermore, inviting the woman on the first date can impress her and could lead to other dates. It’s a polite gesture that should be increasingly normalized and not the opposite.
A lot of people are against 50/50 on the first date. I think it's a good idea in some cases. When you don't know the person you don't necessarily want to spend money on them, especially if you don't follow up on the first date... Moreover, some people can't afford to pay the full bill for each date. Lucie Weber
First of all, the first date is the most important meeting to decide whether or not it is possible to commit to a relationship.
So to begin with, I think 50/50 is really important in a relationship. I don't like the stereotype that the man has to pay for everything. In this situation, most of the time, the woman ends up getting used to it and enjoying it. Sometimes, it’s even the women who pays everything.
However, the first date should impress the woman. In my opinion, pay the bill to the women is a polite act that could be really appreciated.
To conclude, I am against 50/50 for the first date. In my opinion the man should pay for the first meet.
In my opinion, splitting the bill on the first date is the bare minimum.
Let me explain. For a very long time in our society, people grew up thinking men are the only citizens making money and that the women’s place belonged in their homes. This standard has led to the common thought that men are the ones taking care of their date (or wife) moneywise.
But since then, times have changed for the better, and nowadays women are allowed to have their own money, jobs, and overall autonomy. However, old times and traditions are still influential in some ways.
For example, today’s subject: many people (women but also men) think that it is the man’s responsibility to pay the bill on the first date (assuming it is a heterosexual date!).
In this society, we, women, have been fighting for both our rights and our equality to men. I think that total moral and legal equality for girls and boys is a goal we are working towards thanks to feminism.
Yet, we as a group are keeping ‘traditions’ that come from our old, sexist way of thinking such as this one? Nonsense.
And that’s why, in my mind, splitting the bill is first of all an act of common decency but it is furthermore a symbol of feminism.
For me it s normal when you just met a persone. a goal is just to get to know each other. Often it s man who paid, it s a convention but a girl want egality, we can give their egality. somethime a girl say it s a lack of equalily when we paid addition
I think on the first date 50/50 is a good thing because in a date you come to discover a new person and not to have a free eat. It can also show the intention of the person if he/she doesn't want to paid it can say the person is here for your money or an other thing but not especially for you. but i think the best thing to do is that everyone paid her part of the bill. sasha 109

In my opinion, do 50/50 on the first date is a good thing. On the first date we don't know the person, it's can be someone here only for your money. Some girls thinks thyat men have to pay for everything because they must be gentlemen but I think it's stupid because gender equality is for both, not only for women so why should the man pay for everything whitout even knowing the girl ? And if you don't have enough money for a restaurant, many other kind of dates exist whitout having to pay.

Many people prefer to go about 50/50 when first date , but that hasn't always been the case.
ReplyDeletein another era it was men who had to pay to make a good impression and act like a gentleman.
today, for gender equality, we divide the bill to so that the woman does not feel inferior to the man.
I think that it is the man who must pay the first date show that he is attentive but after the first date, it is the one who invites who to pay.
