Why Make the First Move Day is Important

A

Empowerment and breaking gender norms

Making the first move goes against traditional gender roles where men are expected to make the first move in relationships. By celebrating this day, it promotes the idea that women can take control and be confident in initiating a relationship or showing interest.

B

Encourages authenticity and honesty

Not only does making the first move show confidence, but it also promotes honesty and genuine feelings. By taking initiative, one is being open and honest about their intentions without waiting for the other person to make a move.

C

Celebrates partnership and equality in relationships

Making the first move day celebrates the idea of equality in relationships. It promotes the idea that both parties should be equally invested and involved in starting a relationship, rather than putting all the pressure on one person.
