A lot of it has to do with the harsh punishments for "sexual harassment" that there are nowadays. While there are a few well-intentioned men out there trying to pursue their love, there are just as many creeps who would use that protection to harass women. If you chase a girl after she says NO, you've now jumped into the realm of sexual harassment. Part is legislation, part is ego.
