This week I am speaking to Aunty P, one of my lovely friends.
We will be discussing hookup culture and casual relationships, sneaky links, and catching feelings.
I have been deep into researching these topics as I have been wondering if hookup culture mostly benefits men.
Is hookup culture liberating us or harming us?
In most cases, women have to suppress their natural emotions to engage!
Dodging catching feelings.
Are we built psychology mentally and emotionally for constant casual flings?
Are you benefiting psychology and sexually from the impact?
Is it encouraging us to disconnect from our emotions, or instead has it encouraged us to manipulate and play games?
I have been looking into what the possible harms of the culture are, as I have rarely seen friends with benefits situations end positively.
I’ve seen the fallout and drama of what are meant to be casual relationships. It seems like a lot more emotional labor than what it is perceived to be.
Research shows links to high levels of anxiety and depression.
The orgasm gap is stark when it comes to one night stands
6 Popular scientific studies have found a correlation between casual sex and a variety of negative mental health consequences like anxiety, sadness, feeling bad about oneself, regret, depression, and poor self-esteem.
We’re not here to judge, we’re here to discuss as two women with a very different outlooks on the topic. I hope you enjoy it! And don’t forget to give my podcast a rating!
