asdf8562 04/10/23 5:19:12 PM #9:	No_U_L7 posted... post the convo Long story short, she wasn't thrilled he made her pay, and I didn't side with her on it. Conversation was brief, but was still funny to me. After she was done telling me the guy made her pay, she had a stink face when I responded, "Everyone's a feminist on a date until the check comes." Her stink face was just hilarious to me which sparked this topic. I didn't really debate her on it though, just left the conversation at that. But she definitely disagrees. I won't debate it here myself, but I am lil invested to see where CE is on this given the age of feminism and the year 2023. <cite>asdf8562 posted [p:972757291] in Do you bel...
