The Old Wives Rule
You may have heard your grandmas, aunts and old folks talking about "when it was their time", about love and dating 50 years above; they would say women were more demure and not aggressive, they wouldn't dare wear skimpy skirts or revealing clothes. But that was their time, if you wear floor length skirts and buttoned up blouses up until the neck; or still be super demure and prim in this modern time, you'd be considered either going for the "mother superior" role, a "snob" or a "single forever" type of person. Well, that may not be the absolute truth, but how would you get to find the love of your life without adapting the present dating rules in your love life.
The modern woman and the modern lifestyle
Everything changes, and even dating rules change too. When things change, you have to change in order to keep up. The rules have changed and became less restrictive now. The doors of change will always be open, each path changes through out the years, its up to you to figure out where and what path you should follow to find your partner. Fifty years ago, women have this fixed role in the society, a well defined role that everyone thought would not change. Women were housewives, end of story. They just stay at home and tend to the house and care for the kids while the hubby is still at work. Men were the leaders, women were the followers.
Here, in the present, women are also responsible when it comes to providing for their families, there are many moms who work and at the same time fend for their kids, their husbands, their homes and their careers. Men and women know what they need to do, and that's setting aside the traditional beliefs in order to make way for a better tomorrow.
There is women empowerment now. Women can have a say, they can manage well by themselves and take care of themselves. But it's still simple better if someone would watch your back for you. Everyone deserves to have a good and faithful partner to spend the rest of their lives with. Two is always better than one, and that date could be the one for you.
