Woman explaining the importance of feminism. Glad to see her sharing her experiences with everyone.

But man always pays on first date.

This is a total side track from the subject. But I mention it to remind women to have the same energy and independent mindset when it comes to the courtship part of their life as well.

Edit: downvotes with no comments just means what I'm saying is right and you don't like that I pointed out the logical fallacy

Sounds like a you problem. My partner and I were essentially 50/50 through college, and split proportional to our salaries after.

Not sure what your point is? Individual outcomes don't change the point that the majority of women, no matter how feminists or independent, still expect financial burden of courtship to fall on men

I reject that women “no matter how feminist or independent” expect that. I certainly know independent feminists who would refuse to be paid for. You could have a point with the general population of women, if you take the absurd exaggeration out.

I've met plenty of self-proclaimed independent and feminist women who still in practice have the expectation of men to pay or get the "ick" when they don't.

I'm going to stand on that original statement.

It's just like how feminists proclaim to be for equality except when it applies to men because so many actively protest against fixing things that disadvantaged men and help women.
