Is it normal to want to always be the superior one for a man?

I guess it varies for every guy but one of the things I come across that guys like to do for women they like is protect them and act like the superior, hence, pay for dinner. But I also know that guys appreciate it if the girl participates sometimes too. So when do they draw the boundary line? When does it look like the girl is trying too hard to help him out? When is it enough?

    When are we going to move past the man is suppose to pay for the date? The "person" who asks the other "person" should pay. It should be the responsibility of whoever extends the invitation.

    Why does it have to be about superiority? What about an equal partnership?

    Besides, paying for things is only one of the many ways in which someone can contribute.

    • Because thats what some guys like. If you're not a guy who likes that or not a guy at all, then you don't have to respond.

        I'll comment on whatever the fuck I feel like commenting on.

        As far as paying for meals, yes, some men like their partner to contribute, some don't. It depends on the person, so you'll never get a straight answer as far as what the "boundary" is, as it is variable. If you're so worried, offer to pay and see how he reacts.

        What I was commenting on in your post is the fact that you seem to view this act as some type of power play. I do not understand that dynamic, nor do I understand the notion of one partner being an "authority" over the other simply due to the manner in which they contribute to the partnership. Financially contributing to a relationship is only one way of contributing. If a man you are dating is uncomfortable with that, then there are other ways to actively provide. However, for most people it is an act of kindness and not an attempt to establish power and control in a relationship- that's just a very odd way to look at it.

            • Hahah why? I wanna hear frm guys who prefer to be the superior. I'm not saying all guys are or should be like that. I don't wanna hear this whole "equality" shit. I aint got time for that...this is a simple post bout the guys who prefer this position. That's it. Plus I asked countessdouche politely to not not respond and she comes at me w a bad attitude. No.
