You are absolutely right and if we wanted to turn the tables around we could. There are so many messed up dudes that hurt women and in many cases for absolutely no reason other than selfishness. This thread could easily turn into a sex hate but that's not the discussion. As you said it's about "Why don't women approach men".
I'll lighten up when those two stop singling me out I've also placed them on ignore and won't entertain their posts anymore. Back on subject.

fyi:before this thread started, what i thought was a 5% occurrence, seems to be more like a 20% occurrence; but it is still nowhere near the 50/50 that a few posters in this thread are insinuating.
Refusing to do something and willing to do something ( but less likely ) are hugely different obviously LOL.... But thank you for the separating them

Most likely?.....Most definitely I thinks more appropriate mate

But yes throughout this thread I've been giggling if honest with some of the responses..... Just that a lady doesn't approach YOU ( not you but an individual ) then they can't possibly approach anyone else...... like ever! lol

Even I've been asked out about 3 times in my life so it definitely happens.

I couldn't even begin to tell you or even guess the amount of times it happened to me!

But yes it does happen mate.... ( I'm now awaiting someone to come along and tell us we are in the top 20% of blokes, millionaires, male models etc LMFAO!!! )

Men often complain that women are too afraid to approach to conversate, it is traditional for men to break the ice first but why won't women do the same?


See how this can easily become a two way street without being gender specific and borderline gender bashing?
nope... women have stepped up and 50% are in the work place with many being bread winners and some even in positions that were once dominated by men.

women don't get to choose where they want to "employ" their traditional values... you want in, you play with a full deck of cards- no special treatment.

Male model? I wish lol. I wear glasses and have a nerdy disposition and I'm into comic books, video games, and astronomy. I'm surprised some women even find me attractive with the hobbies I like lol.

these are the worse type of questions to ask in today's era because of the responses.. 20 years ago, there wouldn't have been so many women adamant of the fact that they approach men first- especially not openly. same how there wouldn't have been so many women open about multi-dating.

dynamics have changed and people haven't learned to adjust but yet, women now have this defensive tone when questioned about things they would have not done traditionally...

a wacky world we live in.

From my perspective I LOVE the thought of chasing, wooing, and " winning " a ladies heart I can't see how that's a bad thing?
Just from a mindset point of view it can be pedestalizing. Your mindset is fine.

Then you're not as good looking as you think you are!

But seriously I don't understand why people go through a check list of what they have got thinking it should warrant attention or make them desirable and then are at a loss when trying to understand why people don't approach or are interested in them.

The answer is quite a simple one......Any person you meet would be an individual and if they don't find you attractive or you're not their cup of tea then all ^^^^ means sod all mate!
