One-night Stands

Don't you think it's weird that one-night stands are seen as acceptable, yet if somebody admits to sleeping around, they're labelled a slag?

I'm not sure one-night stands are seen being acceptable. At least not in my eyes.

I've had a few one night stands and none of my friends think I'm a slag. Generally it's the people who don't know you who make the dumbass comments..and who cares what people who don't know you think anyway?

Humans are pleasure seeking creatures. I happen to enjoy sex & I'm not interested in getting involved in any sort of relationship right now. I've been travelling for the past 3 years, so I can either starve myself of sex for 3 years because I'm not dating someone, or I can be realistic and occasionally have some safe fun. I chose the latter!

I like that :smile:

But still, I lost some respect for one of my male friends when he had a one night stand. But he annoys me anyway :p:

I hardly think one night stands are seen as acceptable by some people, don't see the problem myself, who says sex should be restricted to people in a relationship? would mean a lot of frustrated people out there

I agree.
I personally don't understand how people can get any proper satisfaction out of one night stands.. but we're all different I guess. I could never feel comfy enough with a stranger to sleep with them then leave the next morning. I'd feel like dirt

I don't see a problem. If both parties are up for it, where's the harm?

Yeah, I've never had a one-night stand and at the moment I don't intend to...

A one night stand doesn't have to be with a stranger though. I've ended up sleeping with a few of my not-so-close friends, so it's not as if I'm just renting myself out for one night to whoever turns up. They have all been people I've had some interest in but with whom a relationship isn't possible. As I've said, I travel a lot and live in a town with a large transient community. Either I'm leaving town soon, or they are..so does that mean that if there is mutual interest we should deny ourselves of fun because we aren't 'dating'?

I consider anybody a slag who sleeps with someone full well knowing that its [going to be] a one night stand, without telling the poor bloke/girly about their intentions. Its deceitful and evil. As long as your not hurting anyone there is nothing wrong with plenty of one nght stands. In fact, I wish I'd had more when I was single... :rolleyes:

not that you're being judgemental or anything...

one night stands are exciting though!! because theres sometimes a risk of being discovered/caught whereas its expected in a relationship. and one night stands are often quite passionate, which can give people even more pleasure than standard relationship sex. its also a way of having sex without getting emotionally involved!

having a one night stand or two (or three...) doesn't make a person a slag; i've had a few and i don't know anyone who would consider me to be a slag.

slaggishness (woohoo, new word :smile:

) in my opinion is less about the particulars of a person's sex life and more about a person's general demeanour. it's hard to explain but i know a few virgins who are slaggier than some of my friends who've had quite a few sexual partners and engaged in casual sex.

Most situations which result in one night stands make it fairly clear that it is a one night stand. I'd be suprised if anyone you slept with who you'd met in a club was expecting much more than sex. If more happens, great, but I don't think you need to worry about setting out terms and conditions!

I think this is where a proper definition of a one-night stand needs to be made. I would be against a one night stand if it meant two complete strangers sleeping with each other and that being that. It's almost prostitution really... But if it's a more casual relationship, that's not so bad I don't think.

its not socially acceptable most of the time, especially for women. i miss the days of one nighters :'( sex with my bf is infinitely better but it doesnt have the same excitement as when you are doing something you shouldnt.
