Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : I was talking with my brother in law. He’s a really conservative guy and is really into gender roles.

I told him I only sometimes pay for the date whenever I go out with my girlfriend. Sometimes she pays. 

He told me I’m an asshole (his literal words) for doing this. He says I should be being a gentleman and paying for her dates, constantly buying her gifts, etc.

I told him I don’t want to get taken advantage of. I’m not some charity. Sure I’ll pay for dinner sometimes, but not all the time. I’ll buy her a gift here and there. 

But I keep it 50/50 with her. That’s the way it should be right? (Btw my girlfriend doesn’t care at all, and is totally fine with it)
