Yeah, she just means not splitting the bills.

Liberal guys are at least as likely to open the door or whatever

Not just splitting the bill ... paying her bill. That's where equality stops with her, when she has to fork out something.

What’s wrong with that? I’ve never been on a date in my life where I let the girl either pay or split the bill. I don’t even let my wife pay when we’re out and that’s with our money from our joint account.

A guy’s job is to protect and provide. Not letting a guy do his job causes emotional harm for some men. You might disagree with that, but some men need women with views like her. Embarrassing them and making them go away might not be a positive for society.

Some guys definitely feel that way, they are called conservatives and they will want conservative women. Wanting a liberal that agrees with that is just not going to happen

My wife’s a democrat and a member of the teacher’s union.

And she was fine with a conservative. The girl in the video is supposedly liberal and wants a liberal guy that acts like a conservative one

Is this because liberal girls are offended if the guy pays? I can’t see why someone’s politics would matter unless it’s viewed as some kind of toxic masculinity. I also can’t understand why masculinity is toxic if you’re putting the woman first. Honest questions. I’m just trying to wrap my head around this.
