Why are guys expected to pay for dates? And not vice versa?

Because if you walk out of the grocery store with a bunch of dates that you haven't paid for they are going to call the police or at the very least yell at you in anger and either of those alternatives will likely ruin your enjoyment of those dates.

1It came from the fact that men used to be the only gender *allowed* to make money, so they always payed and, like many sexist standards, has had lasting effects on the current system. Only recently has the feminist movement gained traction and gotten around to social mispractices, as they weren't as urgent as political and monetary mispractices.

Yea, I totally agree on getting around these darn social mispractices. Men can offer but shouldn't be expected to pay. I am specially looking forward to overturning the sexist mispractice of only men being drafted into war, oh wait-

Probably because it used to be the standard. Times are changing though. It's sill polite to offer, but from what I understand you should talk about how you are going to split the bill or not beforehand. So no surprises

Because it's an old, outdated rule made from arbitrary gender roles.

50/50 is the only way relationships should be, partners or friendships. One sidedness leads to resentment

Traditionally women weren't allowed to work so men had to pay. Traditional people still expect the man pay, but it seems the younger generation either splits equally or the person who set up the date is the one who pays.

Tradicional sh*t,I guess. But it should be 50/50, at least that's how I do it.

In the past women working or owning property was frowned upon so they literally couldn't pay because they had no money. Now it's just tradition that some people vehemently stick to.

Tradional standards. Some modern women want to be treated equal to men but still expect the man to be the provider and pay for everything

Because it's a tradition that people don't want to break because it helps them I think. The problem with being a guy is our time isn't seen as valuable as a woman might see hers. Personally, the way I see it is if I'm with someone and they expect me to always pay, they don't see our relationship as equal and they are putting themselves on a higher block then they hold you, when on reality you should be on the same block and be working towards a 50 50 type of relationship. Plus, double standards on woman's sides aren't an issue seen as harmful as the ones projected onto men

9I was a Muslim and I rarely flex. Even if I want to, I will immediately prevent myself from doing so bcus my religion taught me to be humble. Besides, I have a friend who is financially unstable. So I never post or flex the food/drink I bought. After l leave the religion, I thought to myself "Hey, let's try flexing something!" What do you think about flexing? Do you think people should has a flexing limit? What is your flex?

4Hypnopompic hallucinations are hallucinations that occur in the morning as you're waking up. They are very similar to hypnagogic hallucinations, or hallucinations that occur at night as you're falling asleep. When you experience these hallucinations, you see, hear, or feel things that aren't actually there. Hypnopompic hallucinations are relatively common, occurring in over 12% of people. They aren’t as common as hypnagogic hallucinations, however. Hypnagogic hallucinations are similar to hypnopompic hallucinations, but they occur as you’re falling asleep. Up to 37% of people experience these nighttime hallucinations. Together, hypnagogic and hypnopompic hallucinations are referred to as hypnagogia. They both likely originate during an early, non-REM sleep stage. I’ve experienced hypnopompic hallucinations myself. Usually I’ll hallucinate a tarantula or two strange insects fighting. I’ve also seen a black cat running across my room, and I’ve seen some scarier stuff too. When GoT was still on I woke up to see the scariest white walker at the end of my bed. It was absolutely terrifying. I remember bolting up in bed, screaming like a banshee. Haha. The hallucinations would literally stop as soon as I blinked. Share your experiences if you have any. Would love to hear about it. 😁

I fear when I initiate any sort of relationship, be that platonic, romantic, or otherwise, I come on too strong. I feel I give the wrong impression by being enthusiastic about caring for people I've really only just met. I just love to help, and I love to make people happy. Those are things that could very easily bite me in the ass, because I'm also very trusting. Not a good combo. But really I'm just excited to be able to care about somebody else. And be able to have someone else care about me.

2Real or bias? Predetermined ? Or maybe we are causing it with our behaviors and these are just the reflections? Is it not the same as prejudice and stigmatization? We say a lot... if we would listen those redflags... but what if there werent any red flags only our misunderstand for their behaviors. Personally dont really think these are real. Nobody is perfect. If you wanna understand your partner and be in a good relationship try to figure it out together why do you think there are red flags.

What if the truth was more acceptable than a lie? In society we all know that if you tell the truth it is seen as either helpful or, sometimes harmful or dangerous. But, if you tell a lie it's more acceptable because it's not fully seen to do much harm. But, let's say the truth was more acceptable than the lie. Wouldn't it be easier? I'm just 🤔 out loud but, what are your comments about the truth and the lies of society in it's current state of mind?

Being a deep thinker can be something good or it can be something bad. It can be good when you are making decisions, and it can be bad when you over think about stuff. Have you learned how to use this talent/skill?
