Although the relationship issues in the couple have changed, a good portion of the girls still step when it comes to taking them the first step.
Often, not out of lack of desire, but out of fear of prejudice of the other party or other ideas whose origins are very distant in time.
According to research, it is not only gender that influences taking the first step, but above all the psychology inherited from generation to generation that tells us that "men shoot, women choose". A sexy female in the traditional sense is what allows the male to take her in defense, to be powerful and to have control of the situation, which goes against women’s struggle and movements to feel equal to men in every aspect of life.
Researchers from Columbia University decided to test whether a woman could take control by making it the first step in a relationship. What they noticed was that the women themselves, in turn, were looking for an ideal partner who "could allow them to remain passive" to take on the role of "strongest" when, in fact, it was the woman herself who controlled the relationship indirectly. , indirectly.
According to this study, women are "taught" by society to be the fairer sex in the couple, and to be in line with the norms behave as vulnerable, fragile and as if they need the protection of the partner. However, most of them managed to find other ways to be in control of the situation, without having to be persistent, assertive or raise their voice.
