Maybe I am getting old or maybe I just don't get North American girls anymore. It seems to me that the art of seduction is not dead but it has one foot in the grave. There are no longer those wordless moments where you close your eyes and then kiss or mutually disrobe in silence to get down to it.

A few weeks ago I was sitting on a park bench with a girl and I said to her "kiss me" and she said no. I could have simply made a move and tried to kiss her, but I asked first. In another situation with an other girl "suck my dick" got a positive response.

Edit: Is it six of one and half a dozen of the other to say "kiss me" as opposed to "I am going to kiss you now"? The whole suck my dick thing was obvioucly contextual.

The question here is whether women want a man to go for it or talk their way through it?
