Equality is still ok..but the trend is many gals want to be the princess, they want guys to be "obedient" to them, provide them with whatever they want eventhough they are independent and able to earn what they want.....failure to do so?....they ask you go fly kite :P
one of the main cause is the romance movies recently keep potraiting the guy should treat the gal extremely nice....think of watever romantic idea to woo the gals...so...seems like like wooing gals have become a "must" duty by the guy......
sometime not say we guys dont want to do so but what i dont like is ...we have to do because other are doing so....hm...i prefer caring someone in voluntary, not by request or force...
one more thing i find is....quite a number of cases that the guy did care alot on the gal but the gal just take things for granted and dont really bother about how the guy feel, and...in worse cases, the gal can just look for another guy when she finding this "bf" is not in a mood to entertain her....
not all gals are like that..but the number are increasing and cases are around... :P
