1. Girls are mammals.
2. Girls fight ALL the time.
3. The purpose of the girl is to flip out and kill people.
Maybe there wouldn't be so many loveshy guys if they'd just realize that women are freaking human beings, just like them. We largely think the same, like to do the same things, operate exactly like you. One thing that most of us do NOT like is to be treated like aliens. Do you really think that half the world's population is terrifying? That is pretty sad. And really, just another form of misogyny. Only instead of hating women, you are placing all of us on a pedestal and assigning us all the same attributes. It's not much different from saying "all black people are scary" or "all men are rapists." Do you see now why you probably don't get many dates? Nobody likes a bigot.
Oh yeah and this goes for Anyways and mat_mantra too. God I can't stand nice guy misogyny.

Actually, I don't get many dates because I'm terrified of pretty much all casual social contact, with girls or guys.

Isn't 2/3rds of the population female?

No... I think it's 51% female.
benji:
It's 51% in the US. If we're talking world, I think women gain a few percentage points.
But there are lots of reasons why men find it hard to talk to women and I really don't think many of them could rightly be called "misogyny." There are plenty of people who are just shy and introverted to begin with, and you add to that the factor that you're specifically allowing another person to judge you by saying yes or no to a date, it really can be intimidating for the person doing the asking.
So if it's really easy for you, and you think an interesting guy is just being a wuss and not asking you, why don't you ask him?
