Because men and women are different.

I think it was already answered before. Men will have sex with pretty much anyone who is interested in them.

This is so true. I kind of laugh of the idea that women don't make fist moves. Women have always let the guy know she's interested.

A shy woman will be approached for example but a shy man never. If you are a man who is shy skinny good luck your only option is OLD. Dating is brutal.

Men should always. It's weird when women do.

Never had a woman asks me out. I would love it though . Where are the places I need to go for this to happen. The bar? The club? At work? Please let me know and I'll.be at these places. Haven't had much luck on OLD.

OP is not wrong. While some of you have had women who made the first move good for you. In the real word though men are still expected to ask a girl out. Men are still expected to propose to a woman. Lets us not use outliers and claim that it's equal because it is not.

My son’s current gf made the first move. He’d never have done it himself.

We still read princess fairy tales.

Women have to have the babies, so men still need to be protectors at least subliminally.

It's still weird in some places for women to do the asking and as you know rejection is not fun.

The world is changing. My son has received professions of interest as well as a prom date invite from a young lady.

If you’re a man and have never had a woman make a first move with you, that’s a you problem. Do you have friends who can tell you the honest truth?

What are you talking about? I (woman) made the first move 20 years ago. We’ve now been married 15 years.

If women are so independent and self sufficient these days why are men still the ones expected to make the first move? If a woman likes a guy what's preventing her asking him out? If she wants to be his wife what's preventing her from asking him to marry her?
