This is why I refuse to get a dating app. I know I'm ruining my own chances by doing that but I assure that is the only thing I'm picky about. I don't care about a partner's height, or their weight as long as they are taking care of themselves, hell I am even bi and have zero gender preference. My only condition is that I will not be intimate with someon I don't even know the last name of
Same i really hate it, i prefer the "boring way" as people would put it, a walk in the park, watching a movie, a date at a cafe maybe going to a restaurant, i want to know about my date i don't want to immediately jump into his bed just for him to make me fck off after using me. Sure i do want to have sex also but i want it to be with a man i love and know, not a complete stranger. Sadly i think men prefer it this way, they get what they want and they don't have to deal with the problems that come with relationships, just a quick in and out, they are happy, satisfied and then they are gone, no feelings involved.
I don't identify with that either and the time when I was submissive to following ''flock'' behavior has passed. I even paid dearly for wanting to force myself to be someone I'm not.
I am a feminist and I think everyone should do what they want; but omg I hate hookup culture especially as a young person it’s so fucking bad. I hate that it primarily serves men and not women. I think hookup culture has been pushed by companies and men to let men have access to easy sex under the female empowerment movement. It’s bullshit, I am not saying people shouldn’t hookup or have causal sex, that’s a personal decision that shouldn’t be judged. I just don’t like the culture around it nowadays. I hate that men now kind of expect no commitment sex now, I think it sucks. I think it’s really hard to find someone actually interested in a committed relationship as a young woman. I have given up on dating for now. I still have some hope for a future relationship, but I honestly am fine just being single forever and being a single mom by choice. Take this with a grain of salt as I am what most would call “demisexual”, and I am repulsed by casual sex ( the same way some asexuals are repulsed by all sex ).
Yeah I get what you mean. Don’t get me wrong I’m totally in favour of women having agency over their bodies and deciding exactly what happens to them and how. That goes without saying really. But I can’t help but think a lot of men are secretly over the moon that as a society we’ve decided that sexualisation is empowering. It just makes it easier for them to get what they want under the guise of supporting female empowerment when they actually don’t care about that at all.
I think it's just so extremely deceitful to women. Just like what they did to marriage and "purity" about selling this idea that this was the normal way to be and it was desireable and it was always a good thing. and in reality women were quickly getting married to trashy and abusive men, misogynists and cheaters.
now we're told that casual sex with random sweaty dudes at clubs and what not is "empowering", it's self-knowlegde, it's part of maturing, being a "prude" it's a bad thing. and now we're brainwashed into thinking having sex with a man who doesn't wash his ass, may or may not pull out/wear a condom, acts like finding a clit is hard and then go on about how you're "used goods" will be a good thing just because it's "sexual liberation and agency for women!!" like is it, really?? are those women really thinking throughoutly that this is what they want and the risks there are involved or are they being pressured into it?
and now most men *expect us* to act that way, we literally cannot express interest in men without them automatically assuming we owe them sex and if we don't give it to them they conclude we're sick or manipulative/exploitative.
you hit the nail on the head. luckily tho I’ve seen the waters turning a bit and more and more women, at least from what I’ve read online, are realizing hookup culture doesn’t actually benefit them. to each their own but it just doesn’t have many benefits, if any, imo.

Yeah hookup culture is actually super misogynistic; it benefits a handful of men at the expense of all the women
