That depends on the relationship between the people involved

I should have mentioned this question was inspired by a conversation with a co-worker and their opinion about the way you should pursue relationships with the other sex. Which properly reflects some sort of larger dating advice conspiracy which tells you how to act.

Power balance isn't something to worry about but feel free to object.

Breaking them down into different cultures sounds okay, but is there some other general consensus?

Are you sure its not a question inspired by my reddit post on this exact question, lol?

Any evidence that is indeed the case? My take is that it's a coincidence.

Actually, I realised later that it was indeed a LessWrong post. I take it's a coincidence, but interesting, now.

In any case, the question isn't explicitly answered by any published research answer.
