I doh know who have it harder cuz I never stepped in ah woman's shoe...what I do know is dat is we men the vast majority ah de time who duz have tuh put we self out dey tuh make de fuss move, setting we self up fuh rejection. Women have the 'luxury' of having men come on to them, then they can pick and chose who dey want to deal with.

Now when I say luxury, I don't mean that it really is, becuase getting too much unwanted attention, or attention from the wrong kinds of people can be quite burdensome. And the fact that societal/traditional/patriarchal norms dictate that women must not be the aggressors can at times leave them at a disadvantage...after all fellas it's "okay" for us to pursue someone we're interested in, whereas if a woman does that, she runs the risk of being labled in a less than complimentary manner.

The whole dating thing can be overly complicated at times...I guess it helps if we all approach it with an understanding of the perspective of the other side.
