Do you think society is too oversexualized?

Question

Do you think dating has been ruined due to hookup culture?

Aerissa_Jade · Accepted Answer

In some ways it has, in others it has not. What I mean by that is far too many people are prudish about it and not open enough when they should be more so. They think sex is just for having babies and nothing more... those people should open up about it.

Then there are those that would do it with anyone without question, they should tone it down some.

In reality, sexualized only matters to those who make it matter. If you think of how animals on a farm or in the wild act, humans are not much different... except they impose society rules on something that is otherwise so natural.

Too many people think of things like nudity is bad or equals sex or make a big deal out of what someone is wearing, when it matters not and they sexualize something as simple as clothing, that is oversexualized.

In the US sex and sexualization is a huge thing but in other parts of the world it is not and they are far more open about it.

Then again if someone is never going to get married, has no plans on ever doing so and has no plans or any interest in a long term relationship or anything like that. If they do the hookup culture is that really so bad?

Yes it’s definitely part of the reason as well as social media , I feel social media played a big part on damaging the foundations of relationships by making people feel like everyone is a cheater everyone backstabs, and betrays , Most people today have become very selfish when it comes down to things , it’s basically there way or no way , sadly finding true love today is harder to come by because of all this nonsense that is drilled into our heads. Most people don’t trust each other anymore , and think grass is greener on the other side. Thanks to social media and porn. Most people do not know how to remove selfishness for their partners’ they only want what they feel is best for themselves , why so many relationships are ending these days. If you want to experience true love you have to prioritize your partner the same way they prioritize you , remove selfishness for each other , and more than likely you will meet someone that values and appreciates you and no one else. It’s sadly hard to find these days

I would say yes 100%. The moment people had a chance to get without responsibility they went for it and made it look that´s all a relationship is about. Many followed that idea and have made it harder for all to find a partner for a long-term relationship.

Billlewis · Answer

I agree with the premise of your argument, with just a couple of minor differences.

I think dating has become oversexualized for men, but not necessarily for women. I think we can all agree that the single biggest reason for the sad state of dating nowadays is that sex has become far too easy for men to obtain, thus resulting in their almost universal failure to put forth sufficient effort to accomplish the most important goal of all -- pleasing the superior female, ideally while also being restricted from having any access to her warm, sweet p_ _ sy with anything other than his mouth, lips and tongue.

That doesn't, however mean that ahe should suffer the same subjugation. Deep down, many, if not most, sexually frustrated men secretly hope that you'll eventually opt to date both of us, while only allowing one of us to mount, ravish and release, while the other one only gets teased.

It is a symptom of western society being in rapid decline. See my Mytake

SotiCoto · Answer

Those are two very different questions.

Admittedly I'd answer both of them a tentative "Yes" ...
BUT I want to stress that my problem with the sexualisation of society is the polar opposite to the usual stance. As in they treat sex as something special when it isn't. It is just a body function... like farting. The usual opposition to oversexualisation is too busy treating it like some sort of precious ritual or whatever... and that is even worse.

ICanSmellTheCosmos · Answer

Never did hookups. Never congratulated my male colleagues who were horndogs. I hate the casual sex culture.

That said: hookup culture will die when women choose to exercise their control over the bedroom. I can't speak for many parts of the world where women are treated like sh*t, but in civilized corners of the globe, free sex happens because women allow it.

PBandJ_Nerd · Answer

I'd say it is hypersexualized. And no, I don't participate in hookup culture.

exitseven · Answer

It has always been that way. The difference now is that people see sex as a past time a d not as an expression of love.

I'm celibate, but even though I was born at night, I wasn't born last night. There was no gun to my head on prom night.

CrabCakes11 · Answer

Not really. “Dating” isn’t ruined by anything. Just stop using hookup apps

tryingitagain · Answer

Yes and no. I think nudity and state of dress is overly sexualized. We've created so much drama around that, and it's sad. Nude doesn't mean lewd.

Hook up culture is destructive to long term relationships without doubt

yoonk478 · Answer

I don't think it's over sexualized, I think it's the fact that sex in general is becoming very like normalized I guess in the sense that people will talk about it like they're having tea or having a cup of coffee with somebody basically.

LiamS95 · Answer

Yes, there is too much emphasis on quick sex with no love or feelings other then quick sexual satisfaction.
