Dating in the 21st Century can be quite difficult for the average person. This is because there are a lot of traditional roles that are being reversed, more women are thriving in hitherto 'masculine' roles. Thus, there are women who would not mind taking the initiative in asking men out till they get a partner they desire. This may be ok for some men who have fully embraced feminism,but there are also some who still hold on to chauvinism. They want to initiate the conversation, pay the checks, show chivalry by opening the doors for their women, so that they are not referred to as 'effeminate men.'
