That would fall under "male that pursues".

no i dissagree 100%, it would fall under male that doesn't pursue. i take pursue to mean "try and win over", if she gives you an unambiguous green light there is no winning over needed.

Winning someone over? They either like you or they don't. *confused face*

Yes thats how I feel as well. How ever a lot of people have the attitude "if they just knew me better, they would like me" so they try to convince them into going out with them again, and then accidently meet them in the supermarket, and then accidently break into their house and put photo's of themselves in your house and then rifle through your clothes and then the police get involved. Love hey, some people just can't accept it. But that would be pursuer (turned into a stalker for those without a sense of humour and can't tell when i'm joking)

That's stalking, not pursuing.

See, I try to be polite and not misogynistic and this is the treatment I get.

Do you think I was being rude or condescending?

Yes, but all women are that way to me, so it's nothing new.

She wasnt condenscending, you asked for something thats quite subjective(depends on each person opinion)and she answered that you should start thinking for yourself on this matter.

On topic: male that pursues after he is "sure" that things could work out well between him and the other person.

I can be pursuey, but it's quite rare. Maybe only a few people in my life. Mostly, I just tend to fall into things.

I never pursue. I've had 2 girlfriends in the past but both went after me. I got into the relationships because I presumed "that's what normal people do" but now I have accepted that I am asexual. Since then, I've been focusing on my passion.

So now all of the sudden most females pursue?

Which species and on which planet is that?

Facebook stalking/commenting considered pursuing? ;P
Long Distance crush :O
She's still an undergrad, too early to pursue. O:
and I'm pathetically still in undergrad; and slowly losing motivation (don't want to end schooling, but I just can't find it fun enough to concentrate and take it serious).......too early to be a pursuer. ^^;

+1

I think that clever females can pursue while making the man think he is the one pursuing, but that wasn't the question...

That "green light" is often not unambiguous. I always think that women are not traffic lights.
