Sarge, on meeting them half way:

Consider that you and every other guy wants to just be super awesome and stand there and have women throw themselves backwards on your dick and fuck you senseless without you even having to open your eyes when you blink.

Consider that until we figure out how to do that, trying to do everything possible to make sex happen is going to help make sex happen.

I have lots of stories about women giving me IOIs where nothing happened because I just stood there waiting for them to initiate. They won't initiate in the ways I was looking for because they were not sufficiently motivated. I wasn't good enough looking, or wealthy enough, or famous enough, or powerful enough, or whatever.

So until we figure out what the magic "it" factor is - and remember, I have to do this for men AND women, mind you! - we are going to have to put in some effort and meet them half way sometimes. Because that's how things work in reality.
