When going out, who should take the lead? Guy or girl?

So my classmate in elementary who was my rival before asked me out to watch Happy Feet 2 next week. I've been waiting for that movie and I can't wait to be overloaded with cuteness. Baby penguins are so cute. Ok I'm off topic. Anyway, he told me that he's going to shoulder the bills. Probably it's his peace offering for teasing me. Since he's going to shoulder the bills, I asked him if we're going to watch it in 2D, 3D or IMAX then he told me that it was upto me. o_O I insisted that since he's the guy and he's paying, he should decide and take the lead. Then he told me that he wants me to take the lead since he's the one paying. Besides, it's sometimes good that ladies you should take the lead. Before, I could decline, he already bid good night and slept. The nerve of him! I'm always doing the decision making. I want to experience being passive. He's giving me a headache and a burden. I don't even know what he likes. By the way, shouldn't guys take the lead when going out? Or is it girls who should be in charge? One last question, can you consider this a date? I've always thought that it's more of a friendly gesture or just get acquainted with on another but according to my friend, she said that when you're with friends, it's called getting acquainted or hanging out but when there are only two of you, then it's called a date. What do you think? Thank you and Happy Mylotting! GOD BLESS ^_^
