Probably because that's all they've known but people who sit back and wait so they can do the rejecting won't understand this.
Most people have been rejected, and more than once, that's for sure. Most, yes, including most women. That's just a fact, but perhaps you're thinking of the extreme minority of unbelievably hot women who rarely, if ever, get turned down? 'Cause those are the only ones you actually see? Not the poor wallflowers just praying some guy will eventually notice them. They're invisible...
Just a guess. I could be wrong. But I'm definitely NOT wrong on the fact that the overwhelming majority of us have been rejected.
Women who complain that men should do the approaching don't get rejected.
Of course they do.
Many women approach. Including directly. As in, "Want to go see Show X tonight?" And many get rejected. Often while still in school. Very young ages.
Because the person we like does not always like us. That's a simple fact, for both sexes. If it weren't a fact, we'd all be coupled up permanently by age 16 and nobody would ever get divorced.

I think it's fair to say though that Women don't get rejected the volume men do overall because men are more the approaches/pursuers.
I don't see any women anymore, what would you tell a guy who was just praying for a women to notice him?
I'd tell him what girls just naturally do: spruce yourself up, put yourself out there, be brave and go up to that girl (guy...in the case of the woman) and strike up a conversation. Have something to offer: be smart, funny, whatever. The girl (guy) won't just arrive on your doorstep magically.

Are we moving the goal posts? I was answering the assertion that women don't get rejected.
That's balderdash. They do. Absolutely. Directly, subtly, after the relationship is going on but the woman gets gradually phased out or is ghosted, and on and on.

Generally people enter discussions to gain information and learn, which will shape their opinions, and give information from their experiences, for others to learn; I have found.
If one is not willing to have their viewpoints altered at all it doesn't make much sense to engage in dialogue on that issue. What is the constructive point?
