Not really "undecided", but we do take turns...I tend to initiate sex more often than he does though.

I don't think I'm "undecided" so much as I just don't think it matters/think it depends on the situation. I'm not really sure I think there are many situations in which one sex definitely should NOT make the first move other than instances where it would be socially awkward or something like that.

Exactly!

I don't think it's fair to say one person or the other should make the move. It really should be mutual, and it shouldn't matter who starts it. Every relationship is different, sometimes you find timid partners and other times you find wild and crazy rabid ones.

I don't think this is a gender specific answer. If you're horny and need sex, I do not see a problem initiating sex, regardless of gender.

I don't think it should always be one person, unless maybe that is just the power exchange dynamic of the particular relationship.

Depends on the couple. I tend to lean towards guys putting the option out there and letting the girl make the move or have the final say. But, that doesn't work for all couples.

Totally agree with indiglo. Its 2011. If your a girl and you want to get laid its as much your responsibility and ability to step up to the plate as the guys. Esp and unclear signs leads to unnecessary frustration and fighting. Clear open communication leads to fewer missunderstandings, hurt feelings and you probably getting some a lot more often.

For me it has been both; some guys just might need a push. despite a macho image.

It doesn't matter, we switch depending on who's horny!

Don't think its really an action that belongs to one gender, more of a whatever happens happens.

It doesnt matter who makes the move as long as both are consenting to the sex. People take sex too seriously lol

It's all based on personalities. Some people are more timid and shy while others are go getters. I think it's all dependent on the situation and the people themselves. Me personally....I make the first move!

i didn't vote. I don't think it's fair for society to place the burden on men to make the first move. I think if both parties exhibit interest, and if one of them feel like it's right to have sex, then go for it, regardless of gender.

I sometimes feel like my partner may be too shy to make a move, so I usually instigate sex. There's only been a couple of occasions where my partner has instigated sex.

also, there are couples here that are not hetero, and are either male- male or female- female, so this question isn't really appropriate for them....

Thanks everybody for the feedback. Ms. Spice I stated in an earlier post I wasn't trying to offend anybody by posting this question it was just one in general and I kind of figured if it was a question that somebody didn't want to answer they would have ignored it. Thanks for the post

I think both should take turns. It's a fact of life that some days, the guy will be hornier; others, the woman will be.
