Last week an anonymous student published this article in the Daily Princetonian. In it, she discusses the mistakes she made her first year at college, and the way they've taught her to hate the hookup culture:
I was so sheltered and naive as a freshman that I can barely believe I am that same person today. And I just wish someone had told me that the reality of hooking up is monumentally different from what I was expecting. I wish someone had told me that you don't get into a relationship by meeting someone on the Street and taking him home or that they won't even text you the next day. I wish someone had told me that when a guy says, "Hey, I want to show you this really funny video, but it's in my room," he's going to show you much more than a video. And the awkwardness that happens when your hookup flat out pretends you don't exist the day after? No one warned me about that!
