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.

Ultimately you must do what your heart tells you.
