Men have an upper hand when it comes to dating and relationships

As much as the majority male and some women will disagree; dating and relationship is as archaic as it sounds is a patriarchal game. (I am going to ignore temporarily the whole women can ask out and they should pursue a man too, for the sake of this argument)

Because when a man decides if it's a serious relationship, when he chases and when pursues a woman it's a completely different story when he suddenly says he wants casual/FWB/not looking for relationship. They call the shots; the women give them a chance if they are fairly decent.

To the men who don't agree, you are not taking enough risk and putting yourself out there and getting rejected. As a woman it's all the more tough!!!
