What Is A Dating Culture?
A Dating Culture Is Something That I Like To Define As A “Certain Way Of Dating In A Specific Culture In A Specific Time That Has Developed Through The Centuries Through Different Practices Of Courtship and Molded By The Societies Expectations Of The Behavior Of Both Men and Women”.
Yes, This Is A Really Long and Elaborate Definition Of What I Am Calling A Dating Culture.
It Is Not Something That Was Invented Yesterday, It Has A Distinct Historic Background and
Is Also Defined By How Men and Women Respectively Are Expected To Behave In That Specific Culture
From Ancient Times Up Until Now.
So With This Being Said, Let Me Now Discuss The Two Words That Make Up This Abstract Behavior,
Culture and Dating.
How Our Culture Defines How We Are Dating
As I Wrote In A Previous Article, Courting Rather Than Dating Is Something Every Culture as Well
As Society Throughout Time, Has Certain Unwritten Rules Of How You Should Do and What Is
Expected Of You, As A Man Or A Woman, and It Is Different In The Modern World Between Different
Societies As Well.
These Rules Are Something Each Individual In A Specific Society Learns When He Or She Is Growing Up.
If You Suddenly Are In Another Culture, There Might Be Different Ways That You Are Supposed To Behave,
No Matter Which Gender You Have.
In Our Western World, Despite The Fact That Many Women Claims To Be “Independent” or “Feminists”,
The Latter Word Is Ambiguous Since Many Women (In Some Countries Men As Well) Define It Differently,
Depending On Their Culture, But Most Women Still Expect The Man To Pay For The Dinner (Or Coffee Etc.).
This Is A Typical Feature Of The Western Dating Culture Today (2016) Yet This Wasn’t Invented But
Has Slowly Developed Through The Last 50-100 Years, Since Dating Didn’t Occurred In The Old Rural
Society, Where Parents Often Chose Their Child’s Future Husband Or Wife, Which Was Then An
Economic Arrangement Between The Two Family Heads (The Father Of Both Groom and Bride).
My Dating Advice About Culture
When You Are Dating Today, You Should Be Aware Of The Culture In The Country Where You Date,
Otherwise It Might Become A Catastrophe For You. I Will Give You An Example Below.
In Some Cultures It Is Considered To Be Polite If You Put Some Food On Your Date’s Plate,
No Matter If It Is At Someone’s Home Or In A Fancy Restaurant.
In Other Cultures This Might Be Offensive Or Considered A Big No-No,
Something That Is Only Acceptable For A Parent To Do, To Help His Or Her Child To Eat
But Not For An Adult Individual.
This Is One Of The Cultural Differences That Actually Can Become A Relationship Maker Or Breaker.
