How come I was born without the "pursue women" gene even though I'm a man? Growing up I always thought girls would approach me and ask me out. I had to be told that that's not how it works.

>>34585310That doesn't answer my question
>>34585274Probably because your dad never taught you anything.
>>34585274Saying you were born without this "gene" is a little overdramatic. You probably just never came to that realization, concluded that by observing the world and people interacting around you, or had it explained to you. It's really not that deep.My anecdotal experience with something similar is that I didn't realize you could hang out with your friends outside of school until I was in 7th grade. It's incredibly stupid but I legit just never thought that was something you could do. I wouldn't go so far as saying I was "missing a gene". Now I make plans and go out with friends all the time
>>34585374You shouldn't need a dad to tell you that it's your job to initiate. That's something most males understand instinctually.
Stick figure incel spam
I thought we lived in a society where men and women are equal. It was a lie. Actually the onus was entirely on me to initiate. Well, enjoy your lives without me.
>>34585274Prenatal hormone exposure plays a bigger role in behavior than genetics. If you feel certain male behaviors don't come naturally to you, you may have had abnormally low androgen (male sex hormone) exposure prior to birth.Measure your index finger, then your ring finger. If your index finger exceeds or is equal to the length of your ring finger, you have a high 2D4D ratio, indicative of abnormally low prenatal androgen exposure (you didn't get enough testosterone when you were a fetus, basically). Many behaviors are predicted by a high 2D4D ratio, most of them negative. Behaviors linked to a high 2D4D ratio include: low athletic ability, depression, elevated risk of obesity, elevated risk of heart disease (even after controlling for obesity), lower aggression, and significantly lower promiscuity/sexual aggression. That last one might be why it never occurred to you to approach women.Of course all this goes out the window if your ring finger is bigger than your index finger, but I'd bet it isn't if it never occurred to you to ask girls out.>>34585402This is true. If you had to be taught this, something went wrong.
>>34585274You might just not have a strong libido, or you saw a lot of shows where girls asked guys out, or you are just stupid about that one particular thing. It isn't something to really care about. That said...1. Women want a man who will purse them. They want to be wanted and nothing is a more obvious signal that they are wanted than a man asking for their attention. If you want to date a woman, be confident and ask one out.2. You MIGHT just...not be attracted to women. It is really quite rare, but its ok to not want to have sex. It isn't food or water. 3. Get some strength training in. Seriously, doing some curls and climbing a flight of stairs will massively help a lot of the kind of hormone problems that plague the modern male.
>>34585475>Women want a man who will purse themWhy don't men want a woman who will pursue them?
>>34586027They do, but it never happens so they give up.
>>34586027English is a bastard language and I hate it.But yes, women want a man that will buy them purses (and other things)
I might be lacking the same gene as well, since I've never fallen for the 'sex sells' shit, women's awkward seduction/flirting to get me to do them favors, or this supposed urge to 'protect and provide'.No I am not a fag, I do like women, but I do not get the concept of approaching or these social sparring matches that people do by lightly flirting, it all seems so animal-like, like drone behavior.My brain may just be broken
