Fair and valid and I agree that fulfillment could be driving some of these statistics. Certainly questions of consent and personal enjoyment are contributing to the outcomes. The data looks at more than just hookups, measuring trends that go beyond one night. Again, everything you mentioned could be a part of what we’re seeing.
Drunk sex is a tricky topic. When people are drinking and no one is capable of making a sober decision,what do we do?
As for one night stands, maybe they’re a relic of the past. They are often risky and awkward. I hope we don’t revert to some puritanical concept of sexuality. It should be perfectly acceptable to be sexual. I think our cultural history of repression is abhorrent.
