I'm just curious. This is open to everyone. When you go on a first date with another woman, who should pay?

Who should pay?  It should be whoever asked for the date.  I also heard that if you're really interested in that person, you should offer to pay.  But today in age, going dutch might work, too.  Who knows.  I've done all of the above.  If she pays for you, then you should offer to take her out the next time.  If it's the other way around, then it'll be great if she offers a second date or even cook for you.

In heterosexual dates, it's usually expected for men to pay.  But anyway, is it necessary that those who are identified as butches pay in this case?
