i agree with this posting. Women should go after what they want and go up to a guy if they're interested in him! What would the harm be in them initiating a polite or witty conversation with a man they're attracted to?? So what if they're rejected...it won't be the end of the world if that happens! This is what men go through all of the time. Why should it be up to the guy to get the ball rolling? Only confident women whose minds aren't cemented to the 1950s era understand this.
Yes, chivalry is not dead - thank goodness!:d but, this goes both ways as well. When i was single, i initiated conversations with guys whose personalities and physicalities attracted me and i've also asked guys out on dates, bought them drinks and dinner and pursued them further. I've never had one guy thought i was "too aggressive" and, even though some of those situations didn't work out, they were all flattered and told me it was cool that i approached them first!
If some women still believe the outdated notion that they should just sit there and bat their eyelashes while the man does all of the initiating and pursuing, well...that's their preference. And if that works out to their advantage, then good for them. what i've learned though, from my past experiences, is that men are human beings with feelings and they desire to be wanted and pursued just like women do.
If you're talking about the initial pursuit, would you rather initiate communication with women who you are interested in or have women who you aren't interested in initiate communication with you? Because those are most likely going to be your two choices.

It's fine if women casually initiate under the right natural circumstances. It all starts off as harmless banter anyway.
