With the vastly growing popularity of technology, millennials has taken the tech route as the primary source of communication.The constant communication through technology has made courtship somewhat extinct. Tinder is an dating app which has been construed into a hookup avenue for young adults, this ease of access has made it harder for people who are looking for a serious courtship to find true love. This way of communication has handicapped some millennials of not knowing how to approach a person formally. Commonly this generation does not look for love on dating sites, but instead through social media. There has been love stories throughout the internet of a love connection through sending DMs ( direct message ), but is that considered courtship? As a young single woman dating , I have experienced this form of "courtship'' way too often.Nowadays ,this generation has set the bar so low for dating that people settle for that standard.For example, if I'm "dating " a gentleman and ask him to go out for a movie or food often times its seems as if its taboo to ask for a real date.I'm not saying that dating should be in the form that we see in old time movies but why can't it be? This generation commonly wait until after they have established a relationship with a label until they actually consider going out with each other. This practice is often caused by millennials dating multiple people at a time; they can't afford to get caught with another lover or either afford to take them all out.Netflix and chill is also the norm for dating that is popular with young people. This practice consists of watching Netflix and it ending in making out or sexual intercourse. So, young men expect a woman to give up her most sacred part of her to him, but put in no effort or do the bare minimum in order to receive it. You can stand up for your moral beliefs and wait for the gentleman who could meet your expectations , but the practice of talking is so normal that it is hard to find that guy. So, what do you do just wait for a proper courtship that probably won't happen or lower you standards? Well, it has come to the conclusion that we have indeed lowered our standards with this form of dating for the mere reason that we don't want to be left out or alone no matter what the circumstances may be. I believe that if young women take a stand and don't be afraid to tell a potential lover what they expect, all the wrong candidates could be thrown out early before feelings get involved.Tuesday, March 7, 2017
