The general consensus is yes, it is appropriate and encouraged for girls to ask guys out. Numerous members and users chimed in on this subject, and nearly all agreed. Some excerpts from those contributors follow:
* I'm a fourteen year-old guy and I didn't think anything was wrong when I was asked out by a girl. * There is nothing wrong with asking a guy out. * Definitely. * There is nothing wrong with a girl asking a guy out. Most of my friends were asked out by there girlfriend. * Yes if you like him then ask him out. Apparently many guys prefer to be asked by the girl, it takes the pressure off them. They do not need to deal with the anxiety associated with potential rejection. One member mentioned that he would prefer not asking and being able to be near the girl than to take a chance by asking and being rejected.
Not all contributors agreed. There is a small number who contributed who felt it is the role of the guy to ask the girl, that it is the gentlemanly thing to do. Some even believed that a girl who would ask a boy out is being too aggressive and somehow unattractive.
Consider though the adage, "Nothing ventured, nothing gained," and the thousands of similar cliches in the various human languages. There is no gain without fear of loss.

i don't think so, it depends on who you are and how you feel about it. usually guys ask the girls out, but iv had girls ask me out before and its the same thing happening.
Extra: OOOHHH!
Yes. In fact, if the guy is interested he should be stoked. Yes, It is TOTALLY OK to ask a guy out. If a guy is shy he will never make the first move on a girl. He would usally want the girl to make the first move.
Then she is a smart girl. Boys often are shy, and reluctant to be vulnerable. If a girl likes a guy, she should be straightforward and let him know. If a guy is asked out be a girl, he should feel honored that she is willing to risk the embarrassment of being turned down. The cultural hang ups about who should ask who out are stupid.
its 100 percent ok you cant always wait around for a boy that may be scared to ask
Yes. Half the time, guys ask girls out. but the other half of the time, girls ask guys out.
