Which sex has things easier in courtship?

In todays society we still have pretty rigid roles for men and women.

Maybe its physiological.. IDK. Not making judgments here, just stating how it falls out there in the real world

1: Men have the responsibility to ask a woman out, flirt with her, and generally be the initiators on everything.

2: Women have the responsibility to say no when the man doesn't measure up to their expectations.

Both responsibilities have their pro's and cons.

Women have it pretty easy in the beginning of a courtship/dating scene.

. Unless they are competing for a guy with another woman or asking a guy out who is already "taken" it is easy for her to get a date. This tends to make her picky about who she dates. She has standards.

The only real hard part is keeping the relationship going after the first,second, third date. Young guys are hard to hold onto and tend to get bored or frustrated by a call to responsibility, LTR, or marriage.

Men have a hard time getting a first date.. or a second date after the first.

But have it really easy if they can get past the third date. If they truly want a LTR.. then with just a little effort most women are willing to commit in this society.

They are EQUAL:

Start by looking at other people. They look different from you, but built the same.

One head with a brain, on a neck, on shoulders, sitting on a chest with a heart, Get the idea?

That's why we are all equal. Other people have talents different from you, but you still have what they have as far as Brain and Heart. If you are a guy or a girl? Doesn't matter, One head with a brain, on a neck, on shoulders, sitting on a chest with a heart. Granted girls have breast on their chest, but its the heart and brain that are the target. Girls Love and Fear. Guys Love and Fear. Guys want women, but are afraid of women. Women want guys, but are afraid of guys. We are equal when it comes to Brain and Heart. When a guy makes an approach on a female, if she says YES, he got picked up. If she says NO, nothing happens for either. A woman who never gets approached wishes someone would or wonders why no one is? A woman who makes an approach is often misread and undesired events take place. We are both sexes equal. Desire and Damned or Damned and Desired.

It's hard to say, Women generally have it easier because its the guys job to go up to her and flirt so all they really have to do is just wait, look pretty, and smile and that's it. But once again maybe a guy as well because we have the ability to go up to any girl we want and start flirting while a girl will be waiting for a guy to come when the guy can just chose when

'Courtship' is completely tailored to women. If men had our way, we'd bang chicks the day we meet. We have to actively find and 'court' women and all they have to do is wait for a guy to show up and sweep them off their feet. The workload is 80/20, and the only way for a guy to win is to not play. Use logic to talk your way out of traditional courtship. It's unnecessary.

I'd say we guys do. Because, in general, guys are the ones who are 'supposed' to ask the girl out. I'm not saying this happens in every case but we all know it's prominent. A guy, if he likes a girl, can flirt with her. As can a girl with a guy. And equally so, can a guy tell a girl he likes her and vice versa. But usually it's up to the guy to do the actual asking out. So that's my answer.

who said guys have to be the ones to ask the girl out? if I really liked a guy i'd probably go up & talk to him. I think its equal. guys are the ones who chose to go up to a girl they like. but some or most guys like the idea of a girl making the first move because they're worried about getting rejected.
