I don't find anything cheap about men taking their girl out for a fancy dinner, buy her jewelry, send her something to her office, etc. It is refreshing to see how women doing that for their man in Japan is not that uncommon. Something that is reserved more for men to do for their women in the west.

Things that make you go hmmmmm......tonight a girl I hardly know was pretty forward with me.
I'm attracted to her, but couldn't help thinking of the saying if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. I'm yet to get back to her, have to think about this one.

Why not? Man cannot exist on cake alone. You may have had a glass ceiling on that relationship by stereotyping.

No nothing cheap about expensive restaraunts, expensive jewelry and expensive gifts.

Wow, Im glad Im a woman in the west so Im not expected to do those things for my man. Those poor Japanese woman, expected to work, take responsibility for the children, cleaning and running the household and making all the arrangements and still have to wine and dine and shower their men with gifts.

Quite frankly, I'm not sure how or why women have failed to put all us men to DEATH with the exception of a few kept for stud service until the sperm-machine is perfected. After all we pretty much do nothing except sleep, scratch ourselves and bottom-feed like the scavengers we are; countless tests show women to clearly be superior to us in all ways except upper-body strength...

...and yet.

AND YET.

I don't know how Civilization has come so far with us contributing absolutely nothing, I really don't. It's nothing short of a damned MIRACLE occurring each and every day.

I think you women really, really need to wait until we're asleep tonight and then KILL every male in your respective households. The world will surely be a better, kinder, gentler, more cooperative place for your actions if only you can stomach this one vile act which so desperately goes against your peace-loving and beneficent collective nature as Mothers and Nurturers.

Just make sure to sever the spine at the neck rather than the waist for your first blow; you don't need us going all upper-body on you.

Solving official poverty could mean that women can just love us and just be with us; because we have enough money.

Come on, you're not looking at things realistically! Women CAN and DO "just love us and be with us", in precisely the same way they get along and cooperate extensively with one another in groups larger than three. Are you NOT paying attention?!?

Praised be Husband (or, as may be applicable, Boyfriend, "My Guy" or "SO")! Lover, Opener of Jars, Fixer of Dishwashers, Killer of Spiders, Barbecue Chef (sometimes), Conqueror of Shelves set at approximately the height of Mount Everest, a Vessel of Delights (though He leaves the toilet seat perpetually half way up, doubtless as part of some very complicated scientific experiment involving the laws of gravity and friction , whereby it never fails to crash down with a great thunderous noise between two and three o’clock after midnight, like a thousand bolts infused with all of Jupiter’s fury, scaring His wife almost to death. “Woe is me, the End is upon us!” cries she, bolting out of bed, while he continues to snore, his manly spirit unperturbed by such trifles.)

Okay, there, I've made a fool of myself. Happy Father's Day, guys.

I haven't been getting out much. I usually don't need as much affirmative action when I have enough money.
