Why was this bumped?



To answer your original question on if I'd be turned off, it depends.

I believe that if it's an official date and one person asked the other on it, the one who asked pays for both.
If he asked her out, he pays. If she asked him out, she pays.

If it's more of a 'let's hang out', casual non-date, then both should pay for themselves.

I don't think women should be allowed to demand 'equality' in other areas of life, then go back to 'well, he should automatically show me respect because I'm female' when it comes time to pay for things.

Men aren't made of money just like women aren't. (Especially nowadays.)
