I recently had a text conversation with a woman on a dating app that is a LMFT, licensed marriage family therapist. She asked what I was looking for and I told her a LTR with a woman. In the discussion I mentioned that I usually go dutch on all dates because I want to know that the other person is there to get to know me. I was surprised by her response in that she believed that a man "should pay for everything" and that she is "old fashioned". She mentioned she was not a gold digger and I told her well if you expect a man to pay for everything then you are. Obviously we parted ways but it just amazes me the entitlement of some women nowadays. I then started thinking how this thought process must bleed into her work. I can't imagine a marriage therapist saying that the burden of everything should be shouldered by the man especially when they are usually the ones to scream "equality" constantly.
