I don't. I have always treated girls the same way I treat guys. If they're fumbling with a heavy box and ask for assistance, my response is: "I'm not your mommy; carry you own shit!". If they dress in some scantly outfit to look "pretty" and then start to complain about the cold, my response is: "Well, I'm nice and worm in my jacket. You shouldn't have worn that stupid outfit retard".

That protocol is quite stupid and in fact really sexist. You should unlearn it.

Monkeybot: your philosophy would be perfect if you at the same time offered to pay for the dates with a man you really liked, not just vice versa.

Funny though. I was raised by fundie Catholic G-parents who didnt talk about sex. Perhaps they thought I was to young.

Good, and when (if?) you ever get around to living with a woman, then I hope you cook your own fucking dinner, wash your own clothes, scrub the toilet sometimes, and share in all household chores.

This thread seems to be getting off topic. Perhaps a word to the wise is sufficient?...............

The thing that is inherently wrong with it is that the "traditional gender roles" are expected only when they are in favor of women. So we guys are left with a rotten deal.

Or should the women also be expected to washs and clean and cook for their dates?
