"Women are more relaxed about their own sexuality thanks to shows like Sex and the City," Dubberly notes. "They realize that they aren't 'bad' girls if they sleep with men — and men are slowly beginning to realize it too."

Good heavens. I happened to watch a single episode of this show once, and anyone of either gender who gets any kind of direction from it is among the most shallow, infantile "adults" on the planet.

Actually it takes about 3 dates. And if she will date you the second time then you have about a 90% chance on the third date.

I saw an article about sex and the city, where it claimed they are responsible for the newest craze in the highest (3" and above)and most brutal heels.

In fact, podiatrists are doing big business from this show. Some are even being asked to operate so people can fit their feet into the abnormal shapes of the shoes.

I never hear a single redeeming thing about this show.

I date all the time and I always wait for the woman to make the first move. I've currently dating 2 or 3 girls now, we've been out 10 times and I haven't gone for a kiss goodnight yet.
I guess being a gentleman is out... that or I need a first base coach.

The only glitch is if you and your partner aren't on the same page.

My. The only glitch? I guess that AIDS, VD, unplanned pregnancies, rape, abuse, and becoming prematurely emotionally invested through physical intimacy are no longer "glitches" in the new millenium.

From what I've seen, there are a lot of those out there.

A wise friend of man gave me two pieces of advice long ago:

1) Never date a woman that has more tattoos than you do.

2) If she'll do it with you on the 1st date, she'll do it with any man.

Based on my own experience, 3 to 4 weeks worked well for me. I preferred to
have the woman make the "final" move, at that point there wasn't any room for
any misunderstandings. Each woman admitted that they would have preferred me to make the first move.

They also had doubts as to whether I liked them or not since I didn't make the first move. I believe it is always a good move to go for the kiss good night, even if you prefer to ask before going for the kiss. If you get rejected, it doesn't mean she doesn't like you, but atleast she knows you like her enough to want to kiss her.

Not exactly.

While it is true that:
If she will do it with you on the first date, she'll do it with any man.
If she will do it with me on the first date, it only means she is a normal woman faced with an overwhelming sexual attraction.

"But waiting for a while to sleep together, to me at least, indicates a level of intended seriousness about the relationship."

That sounds right to me, but your mileage may vary ;-)
