I've never seen that in America, the percieved land of "ladies first". I may be straying into the "S or M" topic a little bit here though.

I guess this rarely happens among white couples. I indeed did see guys carrying their girlfriends' purses on the street, and they were almost asians. My brother did the same thing too so I gave him a serious lesson.
I have read an article about Japanese male paying for meals for female. The article stated that it's normal in Japan but nowadays some people prefer spliting the bill just like the Americans do. It also stated that men love to take care of their girlfriends and treat them well, but it seems that some girls (not only Japanese) take it as granted without any appreciation. As a result, men less intend to buy their female friends a meal now.
