When it comes to splitting the bill, in reality poor and middle-class people tend to split the bill. Unless you’re rich, the guy will just pay—but even then, rich guys will date rich women, and rich women will date rich guys. A rich person wouldn’t be caught dead with someone who’s middle class. No rich guy would date a woman who comes from a middle-class family, and vice versa. So when it comes to splitting the bill, it’s mostly for poor people.
This is funny because the whole concept of going to a restaurant (or anywhere else) on a date is a modern concept that didn’t exist before car culture.
So something that didn’t exist before like 1947 is now seen by the manosphere-brained to be a biological imperative.
