Information about Casual Sex
Casual sex refers to certain types of sexual activity outside the context of a romantic relationship. The term is not always used consistently: some use it to refer to any extramarital sex, some use it to refer to sex in a casual relationship, whereas others reserve its use for one-time encounters stands, promiscuity, or to refer to sex in the absence of emotional attachment or love.[1][2]
An extended hookup sometimes refers to prolonged instances of casual sex interactions. This is a situation in which the involved parties occasionally meet for casual sex multiple times, always without a long-term commitment. This is a casual relationship specifically for sex and without commitment.
The term "hookup" gained popularity and attracted media attention during the late 1990s and has been widely accepted by Generation Y-ers.
