While I agree in part with you Lixy, I don't think that I behave more passively because of what other people would think of me if I didn't.

For my own part, I have more respect for a woman who actively goes out to find sex than a woman who more passively just 'never says no' and would be more likely to label the latter 'a slut' than the former, who I'd view as a 'woman with a high libido'.

In my own case, I think it's fear of rejection, issues of not putting myself in a position where I can't back out, and not feeling the neccesity to be aggressive which stops me from behaving that way.

It's worth noting that I'm not an aggressive person in other aspects of my life either....I'm never first in the queue for anything, I don't drive aggressively and I don't expect other people to put me ahead of themselves. I think it could be said that men are simply just more aggressive in all aspects of life than women - and there's a reason for that - it's called testosterone.
