Description

Almost every dating coach tells his or her clients not to chase the opposite sex. However, if both sides listened to this advice, wouldn't that lead to a stand-off in the sexual marketplace? It would, if both sides were indefinitely equal with respect to their power balance – and this is not the case. In general, the more powerful force the less powerful to act. This is the power of attractiveness in sexual relationships. “Don't chase” only works if you are more attractive than the other party.
