60/40 in favour of the man. Not necessarily for chivalrous reasons but for the fact that women typically do a lot more as regards childcare/housekeeping. Assuming a certain leadership in a financial sense only makes sense when women seem to do more in general without monetary reward. That’s all. It doesn’t have to be done on the basis of misogyny, patriarchal undertones or outdated chivalry. It’s just for the sake of levelling up overall. That’s how you achieve a 50/50 balance.

For those reasons I wouldn’t want to be with a woman richer than myself but that’s just me.

Like a lot of people on here we have out own accounts and a joint one we both pay into where all out direct debits live. I have always been proud to stand my round and would never expect a man to pay for me.

even when I shared a house we had a mutual kitty for weekly essentials so it wasn't like one person buying the binbags

Oh god, that is ridiculous.

When I was travelling in Australia I spent a few months with a lad like that. He was so ridiculously frugal it wound me up something rotten.
