“The cons [of hooking up] center on the issues of gender inequity. Girls get tired of hooking up because they want it to lead to a relationship (the guys don’t), and, as they get older, they start to realize that it’s not a good way to find a spouse. Also, there’s an increased likelihood of sexual assaults because hooking up is often fueled by alcohol.”

what i would like to know is this: how in the HELL is it still acceptable for anyone, let alone a man, to write like this? could he at least validate his assertion that “girls get tired of hooking up” with some kind of research? also, “it’s not a good way to find a spouse”? oh, yes, how could i forget, that’s what ALL females are looking for ALL the time—a spouse. girls don’t like to hook up as much as boys because hooking up won’t land a rock on your finger.
give me a fucking break.
