WASHINGTON – The polls have been tabulated. A traditional dinner date and a movie are more popular among Capitol Hill interns than “hooking up.”
The Independent Women's Forum released the results of a poll Thursday at its Third Annual SheThinks Campus Sex & Dating Conference.
But what's “hooking up”?
Kristen Richardson, campus program manager for the Independent Women's Forum, a conservative women's group, said it was difficult to get a clear-cut definition.
“When we talk to students, hooking up is very hard to define,” Richardson said. “A lot of students will say it's casual sex, a lot of students will say it's just kissing, a lot of students will say it's just hanging out. Some people even go so far as to say, ‘Oh, hooking-up? It's a date.'”
