Many women want equality, but still don't want to approach men. Only the equality that suits them.
Facing rejection when approaching is what men have had to always face. It wouldn't thus be easy for shy and emotionally inhibited men to get girlfriends.
If rejection does occur, just mustn't take it personally, and move on to the next. There can be various reasons for the rejection, for instance perhaps already has a partner, was bad timing for him, etc.
I reckon that labeling such a woman a **** is dying out anyway. It's also stereotyping.
There seem to generally be women approaching men in small cities and towns.
I can't figure out another reason. It's my opinion that women want it at least as much as men and perhaps more. I've never been asked out IRL. By that I mean someone having an actual conversation with me and asking me to go out.
This is despite of me going out at night and working in office buildings most of the last 25 years. I've been single and available for 17 of those years including now.
I'd like to experience this just once but I don't think I will.
So on this topic I've been doing some online dating, out rather online browsing.... I sent messages to men and of those who responded I offered to exchange numbers and was prompt to speak up and ask for the first meeting. So far, that's been there conversation ender for me. No text back no explanation. Seems men don't really want to be asked out!
I would love to be able to ask guys out that I find appealing. I'm forced to not do just that. All but a tiny handful of men immediately feel emasculated, and that is the beginning of the end. All but a tiny handful of men immediately write you off for it, even if they outwardly 'take you on' so to speak.
That's pretty much it. Women not asking men out doesn't have anything to do with entitlement. It's just another example of how women's liberation really became men's liberation. Men wanted to enjoy the "benefits" of the liberated woman, but wow--what a surprise--no man wants to share permanent bed and board with with her. A woman who is "enlightened"? "bold"? "brazen"? enough to ask a man out is probably a woman who will want to have more of a say in things concerning the couple if a relationship develops.
The % of women who get attention from men without having to do anything is large. The vast majority I'd probably say.
Now, those who get attention from the desirable men they want is a smaller %. The women who don't might have to ask those guys out or flirt heavily, and in my experience, they generally do.
