So there is this article in the NYT that talks about the "new" hooking up. In which hooking up isn't just the sex with a friend no strings attached phenomenon that happened years ago, it’s more of a let’s hang out and see where it goes. The article says that people chose to "hook up" rather than date because it takes off the pressure of a relationship. A survey done says white females are more frequent daters...meaning they actually take the time to know the person and the never daters, just hooker-uppers (if that’s even a word) are black males.
So what do you think of this “new” trend? Is it really new or more modified because of all the dangerous situations we could get ourselves into by doing the old hey...wanna have sex...attitude. It should make us think of what type of dater (if that) we are. Do we go out with friends and hope to meet someone, fall in love and get married or is it just hey…lets hook up?
