Understanding men and women

I just don't get them. Why is it that when a man is with his woman, he can sometimes act like she isn't even there? But, the moment she is ready to walk out, he becomes very attentive and is concerned? It seems like a game. I know they say based on our history men enjoy being the persuer, but let's get real and come in to the times. In the age of cougars and kittens, and what other animal name they deicde to give women how can men still say they should be doing the chasing. We women at this time in our history we should be able to go after what we want. There is nothing wrong with taking the initiative and letting a man know that you want him.

Now, the flip side is that these women are viewed as whores. Why is that? When a man goes after women he is cool and that is expected, but a strong woman sees someone she wants and goes after them, she is too aggressive. How different these perspectives are. Think about your gender role and how it defines you. Do you fit the role that has been laid out for you by society? your family? your culture?
