10 Ways Men Get Gender Equality All Wrong

Ordering first at a restaurant
I’ve seen a growing trend of men ordering before the women at a restaurant as some odd way of appearing feminist. With something like this, it’s all in the execution. A simple, “Do you mind if I order first?” to the table is always appreciated. Instead, some men will see the server ask the woman what she wants, bulldoze their way in, and forcefully order first. It’s just rude. It’s not feminist. It’s an overcorrection again. With these things, feel it out. Take it case-by-case. It’s also okay if the woman still orders first sometimes. This is a very silly issue to even “take a stance on.” Show feminism by paying your female employees the same as the men: not by ordering your huevos rancheros before everybody else.
