In the Tinder generation,artist malaysia lucah casual sex is a mere swipe away. But fast-swiping hasn't killed the romance of dating, nor has it replaced it with a casual hookup culture.
Turns out that friends-with-benefits relationships and one-night hookups are actually the least desired types of relationship sought on dating apps, according to the largest ever international sex and tech survey.

30 percent of respondents said they used apps to find some form of sexual partner.

The survey showed that a friends-with-benefits arrangement is the least sought-after relationship for dating app users. Only 8.1 percent of respondents said they'd used an app to find a friends-with-benefits relationship, where there's "no romantic connection, but regular/frequent sex". And, 10 percent said they'd been swiping for one-night stands or hookups.
Meanwhile, 15 percent of those surveyed said they used apps for long-term relationships and 14.9 percent said they'd been looking for short-term relationships, like a string of meetings or dates. And 11.5 percent have used dating apps for chatting and sexting with no real plan to meet up in person. Sounds a bit like breadcrumbing.
But is this study indicative of what most daters are looking for? Publicist and online dater Holly Forrest says she's used dating apps to find friends-with-benefits in the past. "I've had a few successful friends with benefits situations come through Bumble which was fun," says Forrest. She says in those situations it was all outlined before the first date and felt "contractual".
She feels there's a pretty dominant hookup culture on apps. "On dating apps it seems to be a sea full of one-night-wonders, rather than someone who is interested to get to know you as a person," says Forrest.
PR manager Diana Villegas says it "really depends on where someone is in life". "When I started using tinder I wasn't looking for anything long-term. Afterwards that changed," says Villegas. She has a point.
Online daters should take heart, nonetheless. Dating apps aren't all about hookups and casual sex, and it looks like people are still out there looking for love.
There's hope for all of us yet.
