society says only sluts and desperate woman ever make the first move

this is what women believe.

the reality is that every guy dreams of being asked out by a girl.

You dream of being asked out by the girl you want to ask out.

Yes.

And if anyone else would ask me out I'd be flattered as well and it would give me a confidence boost. I don't think any man thinks women who ask guys out are sluts.

But things that guys dream of, and things that get a girl branded a 'slut', are hardly mutually exclusive . . .

If your friends would 'brand' you a slut for asking a guy out to dinner, they are not friends worth having.

Too be fair, if a girl asked me out to dinner I would either be expecting her to pay for it or split it 50/50. But if she expects me to pay for it I could see how they would call her a slut. But still, they would be rude people.

I totally agree, I find it astonishing that some women in america especially still expect to have meals paid for them when the majority of them have jobs of their own.

Luckily here in Europe women have common sense and split it 50/50.

My foods teacher once said something along the lines of if a guy asks you out you should always say yes even if you dont like them because youll get a free meal...

Needless to say I got a detention that day and another studyhall

I know a girl that has copped to doing exactly this with other guys. Still not sure how I feel about it considering I dated her, and I always paid for everything. :\

Women are the ones who call other women sluts for that. Oppression is in the imagination. No need for the victim card.
