It's one of many gendered behaviors that perpetuate the gender structure even when done in moderation.
Yup...that's why I had to learn to change my habits while I was dating because the last thing I wanted to do was wake up the next day feeling like I wasted money on someone that didn't appreciate the effort....

No...not that

I learned that I had to find other constructive ways to have a quality date without setting the example like I had "deep pockets' or that I was going to be the one to pay for everything every time we went out.

It's nothing wrong with doing all in combinations while dating...we all work, we all have bills.

The whole purpose in going out on a date is to get to know someone.
