Search Results: safe sex

The unwritten rule is, you don't have sex on the first date. First dates are SUPPOSED to be laid back environments where you build a comfort level with the other person, with an easy escape route if there's no "spark" or exhibit any red or black flags. And I tend to operate under the assumption that women have less interest in sex than men do.

But this social distancing looks like it's going to take awhile, with curfews and lockdowns implemented in several US states (including my own) and the rest of the country will follow in short order. We're looking at a scenario where we're likely to be communicating with our match via texts and phone calls for MONTHS before finally having a real date once meeting people and physical contact are safe again. By this point, you will know them better than your average first date, with most of the screening and comfort building done with these late night phone calls. Given these circumstances, is sex on the first date more of a possibility than it used to be?

Am I overthinking this? After all, the legal age of consent's 16 here, so it should be alright, right? There shouldn't really be anything wrong with it, not from a legal perspective anyway. And I'd be orchestrating this in the youngest locality in the UK (Slough), one which doesn't have a university any more, no more clubs or bars- there's literally nowhere in town for young people like us to socialize. But still, I dunno; of course, to avoid any potential liability issues, it'd be safer to go with '18-25', and leave it at that. But the thing is that, like I said, the university which used to be in our town relocated more than a decade ago now; and the overwhelming majority of single girls in town who're even remotely attractive, and possess the slightest bit of intelligence, are sixth-formers or college students, in the 16-18 age range. And without them, I know full well from the few singles events and single groups I've given a try in this town that it'd be a total sausage-fest- there's very little chance it'd be successful without "lowering the bar", so to speak. So, what d'you reckon? Should I go with the '16-25' age range? The '18-25 (or 18-29)' age range? Or just abandon the notion of orchestrating a dating event (or several) entirely, and just do what every other Indian guy here (who doesn't want to get involved in the criminal sex trafficking rings, that is) winds up doing if they're single for long enough- i. e, cave into to the pressure, and accept my fate, along with the arranged marriage my family's oh-so-desperate to line up for me?
