How women turn men into boys

How women turn men into boys November 11, 2011

“We give birth. You pick up the check.” This pithy wisdom on female-male relations came from television hostess Kelly Ripa on her morning program Live with Regis and Kelly this past summer. When her co-host asked for her thoughts on the notion of women paying the bill after a dinner date, Ripa exclaimed, “I’m sure [a lady] doesn’t want to pick it up. Because she thinks that chivalry is dead already, maybe the guy should impress her and pick up the check. And maybe he should pull out her chair once in a while too.” She added, “Any feminist out there that disagrees with me, I am sorry, but it’s gone ridiculous now. . . . We give birth, you pick up the check.” As for her two sons, Ripa told her viewers what she tells her husband: “Raise your sons to pick up a check for a lady.”
