She spoke about how today men are still expected to do the same, it 's a tradition that has been around for a long time. A first date for Ralph was almost the same as Nancy 's, He drove to his date 's house and brought her out to eat where they got to know each other. Ralph told a story about meeting her parents before taking her out, “when I pulled into her driveway her father Mr. Russo came outside, I got out of my car and greeted him. He wanted to make sure I wasn 't a bad kid taking his daughter out, he was very protective and made her come home by 9”.

    In the article, Talking to Boys the Way We Talk to Girls, I agree with what the author, Andrew Reiner, argues about when he states how parents or individuals in general speak and treat males differently than they do with females.
