The first one is just knowing your truth. The second one, like I've said, is communication. And it feels awkward to have this communication sometimes before a hookup - particularly if we don't know them very well. But I think it's just about practicing really small like sound bites of communication. It might be that they want or don't want their relationships. Just having that light touch point, I think, is really important. After the communication also brings us to the point of consent, which I think consent is the sexiest thing in the world.
This week we dive into the psychology behind hookup culture and casual dating in our 20’s. We are joined by the host of The Openhouse Podcast, Louise Rumball, as we discuss the cultural and societal changes that have contributed to this sexual liberation, what happens to our brain during and after a hookup, empowering ourselves through pleasure but also healthy boundaries and the science and personal stories behind why casual dating may not be for everyone.
