In some men's mind, you can look for hookups from one "type" or woman while looking for comittment from another. Only the woman is a ho in this case. Go figger.

And those who don't will, over time, find it ever more and more difficult to compete with those who do.

I couldn't care less how you choose to live. Just understand, if you are single and looking, being a woman who refuses to go there will make things more difficult for you. If you're not, it doesn't affect you in the least.

Why do you see it as a "problem"?

If women and men want nothing more then a hookup I'm more then ok with that. Whatever floats there boat honestly. but you can't blame just one sex when the other is so ready to give it up. The only problem I see is one sex blaming another for being easy.

i'm not calling anybody a 'ho' , but yeah, that's the idea.

"In some men's mind", hah, women do this too... just maybe not as often. Plenty of women know the deal , they would rather sleep with an attractive guy than date a loser who takes them seriously.

I don't see being Gay or Lesbian makes it any easier and possibly worse.

You are making an assumption not held by all that hookups are something LESS than something else. They are just DIFFERENT. A person can be looking for a cheap burger one night and a three course meal another. One is not less than the other, they are different.

For some of us, we aren't/weren't LOOKING at all. What worked at any given time was what we did. How was I to know that I was going to fall madly in love with my husband on the first night we were together. Was I LOOKING for a hook up? No. I was dancing. Was I looking for a commitment? No. I was dancing.

I mean how many people say to themselves, tonight I am going to go out looking for a hookup? I would bet if you do, you smell like a skank and won't get one.

Why is one "giving it up" and the other, presumably taking? Seems to me that it is mutual.

Women do it more often then they let on. Their little black book of rebounds,one night stands and FWB is always waiting for a relationship to end. Thing about guys...they'll always be there and willing no matter how long its been...because well...they're guys
