7 Focus Question In a recent study, 70% of teens said that the boy usually asked the girl out on a first date; only 3% said the girl usually asked the boy out. The rest of the sample said that the decision to go out was a mutual one.  What do you think about these findings? Are they true to real life in Garnet Valley?
