Is it normal to be afraid of the opposite gender?

I'm a girl and I'm deeply afraid of interacting with the opposite gender. I have not been around guys much when I was young or when I was a teenager. I'm always afraid to approach men, especially really good-looking ones for anything. Is this normal?

  • Men aren't as frightening as they look. They are just like girls, only with chest-hair and penises.

  • Honey, just where something low cut. And they'll approach you.

  • Yeah, it's fairly common to be nervous and awkward in the company of the opposite sex, especially if you are not used to it. I would think it is more common in males, but that may be because I am one. You just need to learn to relax, I think.

        • You are the one who brought it up. I believe if the OP wanted it to be a factor in her question, she would have brought it up. I resent your calling me names for asking exactly the same question you asked. Perhaps it's you who have the "hypocritically narrow mind".
