On a date should it be "ladies first" if in danger?

[Caius Ballad]

If you were out on a date when a life or death situation just so happen how would you react? One of you has to die you or her .

No one's life is worth more than yours-- except maybe your child.

[d'Arthez]

Neither.

 

I have been threatened with murder, and I managed to weasel myself out of becoming a statistic. In such life and death situations, I'd probably have a better chance than whomever I was with. So I'd volunteer myself.

LOL like a first date or something? I'd instinctively save myself, I assume, and I would expect my date (who I'm guessing I'm just getting to know) to save himself first too.

It would depend on her willingness to go dutch.

Well, a CHIVALROUS guy would pay AND sacrifice himself!

If it is a first date at McD (as you suggested in another topic), then I suppose it would be chivalrous to have her burger as well.

You know that plane announcement: "In an emergency situation, always secure your own mask before assisting others"? The same holds true in emergencies. You wouldn't be much help to your date if you were dead, so I vote one should always protect their own life first. That said, try to avoid the Titanic for a first date.

Your date would indeed thank you for putting your health on the line instead of hers.

Always remember, in a life or death situation, your only requirement is the ability to run faster than others around you.

[Wesker]

What kind of life, or death situations are we talking about? Being held at gunpoint, or seeing a semi coming head on?
