Are Women to Blame for Hookup Culture?

Men do use women. But women do use men also

Gen x weighing in, young women have been told since the 70’s that they don’t need men. My mom was 21 in 69, everything in counter culture pushed towards free sex. She grew up in small town Florida in a close multi generational family, and I was born in 73 to an unwed mother, she didn’t want it that way and took full responsibility for her decision instead of exercising her new found right to abortion. I have watched the destruction of the family unit on tv and in movies my whole life. I remember when Lucille Ball being shown pregnant on tv was controversial! We have moved very far very fast since television has been around.

“…and am I a top man??” 😂

It takes two to tango... Both participate in hook up culture, so both are responsible. Either party has the power to say no.

I honestly think a huge part that most people miss out on is the fact that there is the silent majority that don't actually do anything these people are saying. Most that are not posting on tik tok, having private Instagram accounts and just living their lives don't sleep around, don't hook up constantly, aren't being flown out to places aren't demanding men pay for everything or expecting certain things of women. It's easy to generalize but I really don't think the silent majority are as bold as people are making them out to be. I really don't. Also it's not "women's fault" and it's not "men's fault" they are a product of their upbringing so while yes in simple terms it is their sole responsibility each for the things they do, yes I agree, you cannot say it also wasn't what they have been told growing up or seeing literally everywhere, movies, music, media, magazine, books you name it. It's more complex so a blame game is a very rudimentary and and frankly silly way of looking at things.

When you surround yourself with crazy people, you may think the world is crazy.

Where is this woman getting her statistics??

My wife started staying home in her mid-20s. She bakes bread, knits, etc. We are on kid 5 and love our life together.

Personal responsibility

That’s a clear case of someone actually agreeing with the other person but deciding to argue/oppose them just for the sake of being a pain in the ass.
