The age old debate: who should pay on a first date? It's the battle of the modern and the traditional when it comes to modern dating etiquette in the initial stages of dating and what a "date" even means in today's world. During this week's brunch talk, we debate whether the man (in hetero relationships) should still pick up the bill, why we need to stop with the fake reach, and how to plan dates where the expectations are more clear upfront.
