default value for a static property

I like c#, but why can I do :

public static bool Initialized { private set; get; } 

or this :

public static bool Initialized = false; 

but not a mix of both in one line ?

I just need to set access level to my variable (private set), and I need it set at false on startup. I wouldn't like to make that boring private _Initialized variable, which would be returned by the getter of the public Initialized var. I like my code to be beautiful. (NB: my variable is static, it can't be initialized in the constructor).

Thanks

You could use a static constructor

static MyClass() {     Initialized = false; } 

However, as has been mentioned by others the default value of a bool will be false.
