If i invite someone out to dinner I pay. If someone invites me out to dinner I expect them to pay. However, I think in general in the US most men and women expect the man to pay.

expect the man to pay

...they're the same picture. Seriously, given the general dynamics of how straight dating actually ends up working most of the time IRL, these are basically equivalent statements, because the man is also generally expected to be the one to do the asking.

Agreed. Most of the time the man is expected to do the asking. From my personal, not reflective of the rest of society, experience...when dating if I asked someone out id plan the date and pay. It was usually second date when dating men, or once when I had to cancel on a first date I then asked the person out and arranged the first date.

The only time I ever felt a bit grumpy about paying was when the other person couldn't decide between two dishes. I told them to order both, and I assumed theyd take their leftovers. They ate a tiny bit of each and didn't take any home. Thats just wasteful. There was no next date.
