Hmmm, i thought of refraining from posting further but after reading your post i couldn't. I have a respect towards you as an older person but will you please base your thinking/facts on the real/proven facts!
Your number one point is an actual insult for woman! Your opinion is that the nature and evolution created woman not equal or weaker then man!!! In what sense? That cant be correct ever! Nature has created both DNA the same so there should not be any difference except in sexual part as we need to procreate! Woman was "created/made" weaker by man and not by nature! And to prove this, just look at an example in muslim religion or even orthodox jew's where woman still today has no rights as man!
Let me explain further - In prehistoric times, woman was doing everything as man, hunting, preparing food, etc.. More knowledgable humans became, more woman started being left behind by men.. So that was created by social environment and NOT by nature!
It is a bit ridiculous to compare us to animals, but i always go animal route as humans are also kind of animals just with more intelligence - no offence to other animals (sometimes animals amaze me with their intelligence more then some humans). Lets look at the Lyon and Lyoness - does Lyoness hunt" YES, Is she equal to Lyon? YES.. Is the Lyon the leader? YES, but that doesn't mean he is stronger! Not by nature anyway! There are many examples but i wouldn't want to extend this..
Do we need to change this and give the woman rights - YES WE HAVE TO!

Your number 2 proves what i said above - MAN treated woman as a second grade and YES we need/have to change that..

Number 3 and 4 are basically the same as 2. YES to change..

Debate is created as people don't understand the difference between being equal, being a leader and being feminine!

Now, the question asked here is again missed.. I have to say it loud for everybody to try and understand - IF THE WOMAN WANTS TO PAY FOR HER OWN TRIP, ITS FINE AND IF MAN WANTS TO PAY FOR HER ITS ALSO FINE! THERE CAN NOT BE RULE THAT IS A MAN'S DUTY TO FINANCE WOMAN BE CAUSE SHE IS WEAKER!
If i see after my visit, that she cant afford to visit me, and i see that she is sincere and our relationship have a chance i don't have a problem paying for her, BUT IT CANT BE EXPECTED..

So i think this time is really to much.. If someone doesn't understand, they must try to get the info somewhere else.. Google it.. 😀 Enough of insulting REAL woman by treating them as weak.. I have to much respect for them and cant be part of this ridiculous "natural" selection where woman is created not equal to man!!!!
Regards to everyone and good luck with your selection of the partner.. 😊
