Dating Smarter w/ Dr. Helen Fisher & Dr. Justin Garcia

<p>Dating - for most of us, it's a necessary evil. We fear rejection, don’t know where to look for our people, or simply feel it's a hopeless waste of time. But as my guests on today’s show can attest, the research behind dating may tell a different story. Today, I’m joined by Anthropologist Dr. Helen Fisher and evolutionary biologist Dr. Justin Garcia of the Kinsey Institute. They pulled data from 5,000 American singles ages 18-89 as part of Match’s annual Singles in America survey, and the results are fascinating. People dating more consciously - hookup culture is dead, and singles are prioritizing things like political awareness rather than looks. We’ll unpack their findings and why today’s singles should be more optimistic than ever about finding their match.</p><br><p><strong>Show Notes:</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://sexwithemily.com/sexiest-gift-guide-ever/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sexiest Gift Guide Ever: Emily’s Picks for 2022 Holidays</a></li><li>Article: <a href="https://sexwithemily.com/cold-weather-date-ideas/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Cold Weather Date Ideas</a></li><li><a href="http://sexwithemily.com/magicwand" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">7 New Ways to Use a Magic Wand</a></li><li><a href="https://www.singlesinamerica.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Singles in America Study</a></li><li>More Dr. Helen Fisher: <a href="https://helenfisher.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Website</a></li><li>More Dr. Justin Garcia: <a href="https://kinseyinstitute.org/about/profiles/jgarcia.php#:~:text=Professor%20Garcia%20has%20a%20dual,PhD%20minor%20in%20Human%20Sexuality." rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kinsey Institute Bio</a> | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/drjustingarcia/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/drjustingarcia" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter</a></li></ul><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
