I'm sorry but this is not what makes me laugh. I think this is what is broken in the relationships. I mean why women has to be the passive role every single time? It's like im not ugly, and actually when I talk with them It goes well. My critic is why I have to start every single fckng time?
Because women are in higher demand than men. That's the sad truth. Women do make the first move, maybe more than you realize, but they all tend to go for the same top 1% of men. If you aren't that, then you've gotta do some work, either to chase them or to become the top 1% that they chase. It's a sad reality but that's what it is.
I don't know if everyone has been paying attention to how things are trending and extrapolating, but the fact is a ton of men are looking at that scenario and saying, "eh I'm just done, I'm gonna stay home and enjoy the peace and quiet while it lasts. Less risky."
If that works for them then they can do that. I think if most left the house and tried chasing girls IRL rather than online that they'd be pretty successful once they practiced a bit. As an older man, young women seem a lot more thirsty than they ever were when I was young.
Uh... have you been around for the last thirty or so years? Apparently accosting women is harassment these days, so it's less hassle to wait for women to do the first step, I guess.
because gender roles.
you aren't a 'man' and she isn't a 'woman' outside of these roles. they are arbitrary rules, but people have deep emotional belief in them.
I agree with you. But we have to start changing anytime...
So... Let's change. They do more damage than good
i can change myself. I can't change other people. Other people seem to be embracing 1950s gender shit more and more.
