Traditionally, men have dictated proceedings during a romantic encounter, but a new study suggests this could finally be changing.
Researchers in Kansas have analysed data from a survey of more than 20,000 heterosexual college students describing their most recent date.
They found that only around a third of dates (36 per cent) now involve the man asking the woman out, paying, and then initiating sex.

I am interested in the time period your remarks are focused on. I graduated high school in 1967, not a virgin and college was shall we say interesting. My guess is things changed a lot in the 80’s but area of country may have something to do with it.
That was in the mid-late Seventies or even very early Eighties in the Northeast.
I never understood it at all. But I found the person right for me, and am still with her to this day...lucky me!
That’s what counts!

No need for the others...they’re banging before they even get out of the cafe.
Indeed...made those days fade away, which is good. Some guys, as they age, long for those days, but not me! Granted, I would’t mind having my 21 year old body again, but...whattya gonna do???
Well I snuggle up with by baby and SMILE!
Mr. GG2 invited me to go shooting at a private hunting club. Picked me up, bought me lunch and paid for my ammo. 😉

When a man can routinely make their female “partner” achieve orgasm, the Women is much more likely to be satisfied in the relationship. I think it has to do with chemical/hormonal reinforcement of or biology. So guys it’s all back on us. As usual.
My husband initiated our first date.
Sometimes he paid, sometimes I paid. Sometimes we just went to a park, each other’s house, or spent time with friends and talked. We didn’t have to go someplace special and spend money, we just liked being with each other.
Intercourse before the ring? Not happening.
Been together 32 years, married for 29.
A man would be an idiot to ask any woman on a college campus out on a date. The risks aren’t worth it. The mere act of asking for a date is equal to “rape” in the modern feminist mindset.
I have dated. A lot. I am unmarried by choice. The one thing that I learned. Women have ZERO respect for a “nice guy.” None. They will all say they do. But they don’t.
Paying and initiating sex? Sounds like 2/3 of Congressional democrats.
One lesson I eventually learned:
Just as it’s easier to get hired when you already have a job, it’s easier to get dates when you’re already dating someone.
A guy who isn’t currently in any kind of relationship, and if the other person knows that, isn’t going to have any “hand”, as George Costanza would put it.
Classy group you apparently run with.
Interesting. What was your kid’s decade in the frat?
Men asking college women out runs the risk of being accused of “violence” or “stalking.” For speaking about her attractiveness to him, or his suggestion to spend some time with her.
Now that's how a guy should date a conservative woman!

You’re what’s called a purple unicorn.
