Should a girl ask a boy out on a date?
What do you think? Below are the opinions of some teenagers. 女孩子該邀女孩子出去約會嗎？你覺得呢？以下是幾位青少年的看法。
What the girls say:
“I wouldn’t ask a
boy out, but I’d make sure he notices me. For example, I’d hang out in
the places he hangs out. I’d also let him know in an indirect way that I
don’t have a boyfriend. That is, I’d glance at him and hope that he would
look back. Then he’d know that I am interested in him. But would I tell
one of his friends that I like him? No, definitely not!” (Shelly, 16)| 聽女孩子怎麼說。『我不會約男孩子出去。但是，我會確定他注意到我的存在。例如，我會去他常去的地方。我會用間接的方式讓他知道我沒有男朋友。也就是說，我會看他一眼，也希望他能回看我一眼。他就會知道我對他有興趣。但，我會 跟他朋友說我喜歡他嗎？不會，絕對不會！
“A girl can
definitely ask a boy out. I’ve asked guys out but
not as a serious thing, like we are boyfriend and girlfriend. We go out
just as friends first. I may say, “How about going to the football
game?” And I’d try going out with a group of people the first time.
It’s easier and less awkward. Also, this way I get to see how he
acts around other people.” (Helen, 17)
What the boys say:
“I wish more girls would ask boys out.
I think it’s great when a girl calls me and asks me out. In fact, it
shows that she is outgoing. I’d also know that she is a mature
person who’s not afraid to show how she feels. I wish I knew more
girls who were sure of themselves.” (Mark, 17) 聽男孩子怎麼說：「我希望有更多的女孩子主動約男孩子出去。我認為當女孩子打電話給我約我出去，那感覺很棒。事實上，那顯示她很外向；我也會知道他很成熟，不害怕表達自己的感覺。但願我可以認識更多有自信的女孩。」
“Would I like to
be asked out by a girl? I don’t think I’d like it. Asking is the guy’s
job. That’s the way it has always been. I’d like it if a girl dropped
hints. But I wouldn’t want her coming out and asking me. It would make
her seem easy or aggressive. (Timmy, 16) 我想被女孩子約出去嗎？我認為我不會喜歡這樣。約人出去是男人的職責，一直以來都是這樣子的。我會喜歡女孩子給暗示，但我不想女孩子來問我，這樣使她顯得隨便或是過於主動。
