Who should pay when going out on a date?

Tigerbay (UK)

There are different cultures at work here. In Chinese culture it's the man who usually pays. The other thing I find amusing is the Chinese characteristic of arguing about who pays, as in "I pay", "No! I will pay," "No! I pay," etc., etc... which can go on for several minutes. The arguments often go from the table, across the restaurant floor, and can even continue at the cash register.

What surprised you the most in China?	Should Chinese care about "face"?	Laowai, is the term offensive?
