What is your opinion on "Casual Encounters?"

[onewingedangel666]

I was thinking what other people think about this. Both in person and online.

Like if you meet at a party or in a chat place and hook up for the night/sext.

I honestly have no real opinions on it. What about you people?

[Karkat]

I don't really have any opinions on it. I don't think it's something I'd be all that into, but eh.

[dakeep18]

I think their a great thing...it allows you to explore your body, find out what the other gender likes overall its a win-win in my opinion

[UnknownError]

Sexting is whatever. I've done it plenty of time in my life lmao and I don't think its that big of a deal. As for hooking up at parties, as long as everyone is safe, uses protection/is on the pill or whatever, consents and respects each other then why not. Life's too short. :P

[TheN3rdyOutcast]

It's more like prostitution than a relationship, (although I have nothing against prostitution). And not ideal for someone more romantic based like me.

Sexting is what it is, but I feel like the hookup culture caused our generation to forget how go actually date, the whole talking thing also had a part in it. I feel like hookups created a normalcy to sexual situations and just added that much more pressure for girls to make the right choice, not that guys don't make a choice it's just there's the whole double standard thing where cultural girls are expected to be pure and perfect yet guys want them to also be sexually eagar, it's just unwinnable but that's enough of me ranting about gender inequality

That has less to do with hookups themselves than sexism in general.

I think it's fine, about the only problems with is is risk of STIs. As long as you can be sure they don't have any, go ahead. WIth Sexting though, sure, you probably won't get an STI, but there's always the risk of (with photos) people posting them online, so be careful with that bit.
Though it's not really my thing anymore, I know a ton of people which do it.
Also, only do anything of the sort if you're legal in your country. I can't stress this enough.

I have done it. It can be fun, but I would stop if I found a girl or guy I really wanted to go steady with

I agree with this. Well not the guy part lol but...

lol it's all good

[James Dean]

I would be careful about it, and don't say "I didn't tell you so" if something bad happens.

[Maiden]

Casual sex is fun, but obviously it's your own resposibility to make it safe.

[Uranus]

I think its ok but you should always be careful. If your partner is into Casual Encounters it probably means you're not the first, meaning you should be very careful about Std's and Sti's. It's ok, just be careful

[Abhorrence]

I don't know what I think. I mean I like to believe that sex is meant to mean something but I've had enough casual encounters to know that it means absolutely nothing. It's just a thing.

[jordanhardy]

I love them, I've done it quite a few times, it can be fun if your careful

[Emerald Dream]

I really don't have anything against it, but I think I am pretty much at the point in my life where I wouldn't want to be with someone that I didn't really trust. I have to be in some sort of close relationship with another person to get physical. I don't think I would randomly just "hook up" with anyone.

If that's your preference, however...then it's great that it works for you. I really don't see the point in saying be careful (not going to get all preachy up in this thread), because mostly anything involving sex has some type of risk. Just trust your own judgment. :)

[geecastrell]

My opinion is that it is totally Ok if you are safe, so long as the experience isn't going to leave you upset. I know that personally, if I had a one night stand I would gain an emotional attachment, and the lack of feelings from the guys part would leave me upset. I think it really depends of the effect that its going to have on the individuals.

[Melodic]

I don't have judgements if someone else does that. I can say, I'd never sext or hook up with a guy I didn't know well, trust, have some sort of bond with.

If you feel for one another and it's more than just a 'I'm horny. I want u' kinda thing, it's cool. If it is a 'I'm horny. I want you' kidn of thing, shame on you.
