		<description>@Mike: I agree. Women should offer to pick up the check for other activities, parking or dessert at another place. There should be some sort of balance. I just want to stress that NO WOMAN should be asked to go DUTCH on the first date. Period.

Though I must say, as for the option of cooking: YOU should offer to cook dinner for her FIRST. She&#039;ll be floored. BUT --- only offer to do so, if you think she&#039;s worth it. 

Bottom line is, a woman likes to be treated like a woman. As much as we gals like to bitch and moan about equality... this is key. Remember that a woman LOVES to feel special. It&#039;ll drive you men insane, but it&#039;ll be worth it. Trust me.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t mind paying for a first, second or third date but it would be nice to be treated to a dinner once in awhile. If a woman would cook me dinner once in awile, I would consider that to be special. A relationship is a two way street. Both individuals have to contribute something more than just their looks!</description>
