Document Summary
What has happened in the past 100 years to change dating. Automobiles ( who you wanna date, privacy, allowed people to leave the house courtship left the house and had more control over courtship, leave together on their own) 1950"s the first date script is in place: scripting theory. Explains sequence of behaviour (gagnon and simpson, 1973): interpret appropriate behaviour (dating and sexual situations, cultural scenarios : collectively developed guides that outline sequence of events and expected behaviours for a given social interaction, ex. If atleast 25% mention it then it became a script (75% might not include it) Today: ask out on the technology; maybe more collaborative planning, they may pay together. Female askers: man views her as sexually active/casual dater and have higher sexual expectations. Even when she just hints at him to ask her out: women saying yes: feel bad when saying no, men won"t say yes unless they like them.
