Hello CHH subscribers! I have some fun goodies for you this summer Saturday.
Free Article of the Week
I’m removing the paywall from my article several weeks ago about how men getting more muscular will generally not cause women to reject them for being to ripped. Controversial, I know! But anyway, given all the talk about the myth of men rejecting women for making too much money, it felt relevant.
Surveys
Sex and power dynamics survey- this one is for everyone, even if you’ve never had sex or been in a relationship. Most of the questions are about what you would like, not what you’ve done. I know this might not align with the lifestyles of super-kinky people who read this in a BDSM context (although there’s a couple questions about that) but it’s intended to be for the general population so just try your best.
Married sex survey- this one is for married people. Yes, I will ask about your sex life. You can even overshare in a long-form section.
Dating survey for everyone, regardless of relationship status. If you are in a relationship, there is a section that will ask you to answer for your previously single self.
In case you missed it…
Am I Bad at Dating? No, It's An Entire Gender Who's Wrong
There’s one piece of oft-repeated fiction that won’t seem to die—the idea that having a career (not specifically delaying dating to work on a career, or being too busy) is romantic kryptonite for women. Much like the “people aren’t having kids because they’re too
Is The World Ending, or Are You Mentally Ill?
You don’t see this stuff quite as often as you might have in 2020 or 2021 (although recent events re: Iran are kicking it up again) but every now and then I’ll see someone (sometimes even *scary music* in real life!) casually mention that humanity doesn’t have long left, or at the very least, that the world is steadily getting worse in every possible way, so any efforts to make your life better or plan for the future are futile. They will discourage having kids, buying a home, saving money, or doing anything that assumes a tomorrow will exist. Since this weekend, I’m seeing a big uptick in this behavior, but the phenomenon is nothing new.
Do Women Have to Lie About Their Jobs to Get More Hinge Matches?
Last week, I wrote relentlessly about sex, culminating in the following quote, of which I’m still quite proud:
Survey feedback on this question:
>Would you find it appealing to be the "pursuer" in a dating scenario? (ie: the one who makes the first moves)
>Yes
>No, but I'd want to be the pursued one
>No interest either way
The third option is confusing, it makes it sound like you'd prefer that no one make the first move (i.e. you don't want to date). I'm answering as if the option is "No preference either way" which I'm guessing is what you meant?
Hiya is the sex and dynamics survey meant to be closed?
