This is a BS reason. Men ask women out most of the time, because women very seldom do it.

So men have the "duty" to try the approach, ask her out and risk rejection, and on top of it they also have to pay for this "privilege"?!? WTF!!!

IMHO, 90% of these issues about men getting angry at the end of a date, would be solved by going dutch by default. But, of course, most women want to have their cake and eat it, too - while he pays for the cake.
