ok, then.

Since im naturally pretty, i only need 20 minutes of grooming before going out with someone and looking awesome. I guess its great to be me too.
The fact is that most men could not care less how we "groom" ourselves. We do that for ourselves.

We've been dating for a month now, he paid for all the past dates.

Of course I said I'd be more than happy to, but still. I'm having mixed feelings about this.

What would your reaction be?

I know this is an old thread but my answer still remains the same.........YOU SHOULD HAVE ALREADY PAID MORE THAN ONCE.

Didn’t you say you never ask men out because they are all after you and therefore you can pick and choose? No need to quibble over who pays if it is the man that takes care of your expenses.

something you can't understand because you haven't even had a girlfriend yet
Did I say I have never had a girlfriend? Yes I have and I have shared about it here in different occasions. Now, as of having bunch of guys approach you in big numbers, is that the reason why you shave every time they take you out? I can understand women shaving their armpits and legs when a man takes them out but shaving their crotch every time guys take you out, I am not so sure about that. You live in a country not so many restrictions so if you like to be generous with guys when it comes to that then that is your thing and it is completely legal. For me, I rather go out with other kind of women that are not that generous with all guys that take them out when it comes to THAT. If women want to be promiscuous, that's their thing. It's just not my cup of tea, that's all.

So, basically it's lose-lose. If you let a guy pay, he will feel like you're taking advantage of him. If you split the bill, he'll think you're not interested in anything but friendship.
Then these guys are morons.

I find that situation outrageous cause i would NEVER let a men pay all my dinners for A MONTH.

This is what this thread is about, right??

How outrageous is the situation the OP presented. I think it is. What is outrageous is her feeling entitled to get free dinners and not paying once cent. And so many people supporting that idea. What the hell is wrong with women??
It was the Rockefeller family who admitted that their agenda was to use the media to entice women against men and to support feminism to break up the family unit. The media teaches women that it's okay to be selfish and ungrateful because men don't have emotions. Nick Rockefeller even bragged about how their media organization controls women. People watch this garbage and it reframes their mind. The idea of a woman paying for meal seems alien to them.

Up yours Rockefellers

And im not asking you, its ok if you want to play. I ask women who support this horrible behaviour from the OP.
Also, women are always going on about equality and how much they are oppressed by evil men. Well, if our society truly believes in equality then why expect men to mostly pay for things?

And there are plenty of men out there that want a stay at home wife and want her basically 'barefoot in the kitchen'. Just because society is moving towards equality doesn't mean EVERYONE supports it.

If you don't want to pay for a woman, be up front about it. The ones who find offense with it won't be interested in you and you can save yourself the headache.

Feminism allowed women to reject their traditional roles (if they wanted to) as stay at home mothers.

So now men should reject their role as providers.

If they want to, why not?

Most women can provide for themselves. Now when children get involved some things may have to be adjusted, but that doesn't mean a man can't be a stay at home Dad. It depends entirely on what the parents agree on.

I've never had a man be my 'provider' nor do I expect it.
