> Women generally do that thinking
Funny how the stereotype reverses after marriage.
While dating, the trope (especially with platforms like OkCupid) is that the man has to perform all the emotional labor:
He has to write tons of messages just to get a first date, pick a good restaurant (and pay for it!), be witty and entertaining all evening, and be just the right amount of seductive (but not come on too strong) in order to "win" a second date.
- ZenoArrow 9y agoDating isn't one-sided. A woman is still expected to be charming/interesting/fun to talk to. If a man sees dating as one-sided, are they really that interested in the person they're conversing with or are they just trying to trick them into bed?
- klipt 9y ago> Dating isn't one-sided. Initiating a relationship is indisputably one sided. The gender roles are so strong that many girls would rather say "when are you going to ask me out" than "will you go out with me"?
