Women are all guilty of it and we will continue to be guilty of it until one day there is a movement where women don’t rely on the man to always make the first move.

This is the age where women are looked at as strong people and we have just as much respect as men now more than ever, so why would flirting be any different?

We ask for higher pay in jobs, higher positions, better treatment in social settings, etc. but we also, on the other hand, demand chivalry and old-fashioned dating.

Ladies, you cannot have your cake and eat it too because then we are putting the men in a position we were in many years ago.

I like to call this position the “always losing place;” no matter where you are in a situation or a conversation, you always end up wrong.

The idea of feminism doesn’t allow a person to pick and choose when they want to defend femininity, it’s either a person is all-in or all-out.

When it comes to dating in today’s society, there is no black or white answer anymore. Everything is on a grey scale.

I’ve seen it many times where a woman feels insulted because the man she likes doesn’t ask her out, but when he does, many women also feel offended saying if they wanted them to ask, they would make it known.

This leaves women in an undateable state because sending mixed signals never helped anyone in any century.

There used to be a set of unspoken rules on how dating works and now it’s been thrown away and used as the “call for the weak girls.”

I can’t count how many times women have called other women weak for wanting a man to sweep her off her feet.

I am neither for nor against how men speak to women or how women speak to men to get their attention in an intimate way.

I want to raise the question, “Is feminism taking away from our chances of love?”

For some women, yes, and for other women, not so much, but it’s to say it has impacted dating over recent years.

If you’re in a relationship, step back and look at it from a different point of view. What kind of girlfriend are you?

Ask yourself serious questions like, “Am I too dependent on him?” More importantly, answer them honestly to yourself too.

If you’re single, take a step in and see what the men are going through and try to make some kind of balance work.

Balance is the key to everything and to make feminism and love work, there needs to be a lot of taking and giving.
