Facts About Causal Hookup Culture

Lots can be said of our modern casual hookup culture, but there is also a lot of interesting science behind the phenomenon that is the casual hookup. But where does science fit into all of this? Has anyone done any studies of hookup culture? Why do we do what we do? Why are women so lament-y about it all, and some men so gung-ho? Is casual sex in our genes? Why are some people loving it out there and some pretty angsty about one-night stands? Turns out these questions and more have been asked by researchers, and some rather intriguing results have been uncovered. At the end of the day, we are all just animals and our libidos are evolution's way of keeping the human race alive to pass our genes on for millions of years (hopefully) to come. Whether you are into casual hookups or not, we don't judge, so go on and let your freak flag fly high. We have teamed up with dating blog The Single Society to scour the Internet for the most fascinating studies and scientific facts about casual sexual encounters. Have a bad/funny/cringeworthy random hookup story? Oh, we love those!
