Sex, Money And Love: Romance And Dating In A Material Age

Sex, money and love: what South African university students say about romance and dating in a material age. Transactional sex – the exchange of consensual sex for material support like gifts, money or food – occurs on university campuses in many parts of the world. South Africa is no exception. Some scholars have highlighted the importance of understanding transactional sexual relationships beyond seeing it only (or mostly) as a way for young women to mitigate poverty, or because they want to enjoy the advantages of what is perceived as an elite and glamorous lifestyle. It’s more complicated than that. We came together as a trio of psychology scholars to explore how young South African female university students construct themselves as sexual beings, and negotiate dating and intimate relat...

Dating A Virgo

Dating A Virgo In dating, a Virgo will probably need his or her date to do most of the work of initiating. Someone who's a bit more naturally flirtatious and aggressive, yet honest and open will help get things started. Virgos can be a little clueless or awkward in the initial stages of the dating process. Sex is a very intimate thing for Virgos, and they will take the time to vet their potential partners rather than settle for a casual hookup. They have to trust and respect you on some level before entering into a sexual relationship. Virgos want to learn as much as they can about potential lovers and are genuinely interested in what you have to say.

10 Rules Of Texting For Dating Singles

10 Texting Rules For Dating Singles - Texting Guidelines and Dating Etiquette. I've found that texting is generally seen as a nuisance for people over the age of 40. For one thing, most of us have fingers that are NOT bony. Those little tiny buttons on the cell phones are ridiculously small.  Plus, many of us have to find our reading glasses so we can even SEE the damn keyboard anyway! Women have the extra challenge of long and/or fake fingernails. Glamourous, sexy, make your hands look great. However, they have absolutely no traction on those little tiny plastic buttons on a cell phone keypad. So then why is there so much hesitation when it comes to picking up the phone? Has texting become the newest addition to the list of "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em?" I believe the growing prefer...

Dating Over Zoom? Don’t Be Surprised If Those Online Sparks Fizzle In Person

And while a lockdown engagement might be a bit extreme, it’s entirely possible that two people have grown to really like one another over the previous weeks and months. Maybe it started with a match on a dating app, followed by flirting over text. Then came regularly scheduled Zoom dates. Perhaps they’ve even started envisioning a future together. Now, as states have relaxed restrictions, some may have decided on taking the next step: an in-person rendezvous. What are the chances that their online connection will lead to true lov...
