Two people going out to spend time with each other.
That's it.
Hell, go look at a dictionary. playdate, date, workdate, etc.
But I don't know, society seems ot define date as "going out with opposite sex with intentions of some sort of sexual exposure."
And according to THAT, I've never been on a date before. Ever. Even though I've had a fiance for about 2 years, and a boyfriend for ~4months.
(all the cool girls are taken or don't swing my way. :< )

for the sake of argument than. If I go out with lets say my gay friend John to spend some time together,is that a date? In my opinion no becasue I don't have any romantic(or sexual) feelings towards him,and well he sure the heck doesn't have those feelings for me. I think that the romantic/sexual aspect needs to be added in as a factor.
Society does have this crazy idea that for anything romantic or the like to be ligitamte there must me some kind of sexual exposure involved which I think is a bit out there. yes there must be attraction bit one must not have sex in order to make it a date.
And don't get me started on girls that don't your way (damn straight girls)

 Date's are what you make it. I guess it's a date so long as you can get the other person to say it's a date. -shrug-

» Home is behind, the world ahead... and there are many paths to tread... To the edge of night...It's still technically a date when you're just hanging out with a friend, like a lunchdate, etc. But you mean a "romantic" date, so I suppose that would be where it's just two people and you both have a romantic interest in one another.

xD I hate dates. Really. They're high stress and little fun.
It's much nicer to just hang out with someone and maybe decide to do something together. I'd rather go to Dairy Queen or McDonalds and then on a walk or something than have to be asked on a date, spend forever trying to look nice without looking like you tried to look nice, and then go to some really nice resteraunt and have to be careful about what you get to avoid seeming either anorexic or like a pig, and then have to think of things to talk about, and then you'll have to have those times when you have no clue what to say and it's just silence. And alskjdlfsjdlf. And too much is in the hands of the guy.

Padme Potter of Hobbiton And too much is in the hands of the guy. I really, really, really hate that. I went on this faux date with this girl. And she expected for me to pay for ev-er-ry-thing. It's like, wtf. We should split it down the middle. Why should I have to pay for everything? Why should any guy have ot pay for everything? Honestly, to me, if you go on a date with somebody, and they don't even offer to pay for their half, then I'm not going to hang out with them again. Because it's just rude. All these women are all like 'zomg, sexual stigma' and 'zomg, sexism' and 'omg unequal!' Well OF COURSE you're unequal. I mean, if you automatically assume that every guy has to be super nice to you You're MAKING yourselves unequal. If you truly want to be equal, then come down to our level and fsking pay for half of the fsking date.

I hate that it's not socially okay for the girl to ask the guy out. D:

I know I mean really it is nice for a guy to pay for dinner but that doesn't mean they have to. As for the whole thing that girls shouldn't ask guys out is bull. I mean come on I think with the whole women beign equal thing that it would be ok for a woman to ask out a man. sadly this just doesn't seem to be the norm yet. *sigh*

Eh, most guys don't care if you ask them out.
It's the girls that overthink it. If you really want to ask someone out, do it. Most guys will be surprised that you have a backbone.
Plus, they'll know you exist. All this pretty eyelash flashing and such to get a guy's attention just makes you look weird.
