Predictable sexual
behaviour is popularly believed to foster trust, healthy relationship
building, social security and team building. With sexual preferences
evolving, this is an interesting time we relook various aspects of
sexual behaviour.
Conversations
(verbal/electronic communication) are the core focus of this
analysis. There has always been a debate* on spontaneity vs
consistency in the sexual conversations. A sample space from one of
the most used dating apps were asked about their preferences on
various aspects of their exploration of sexual preferences of their
partners. A surprising 81.9% felt that clear, crisp and straight
forward conversations are boring because they tend to be predictable.
Universal facts (29.3%), daily personal events (61.4%), career
achievements(32.2%) and passion of life(45.0%) are marked as major
turn offs by the participants.
That raises and
interesting question “With a person you haven't met before, what
creates the spark of interest?”
Looks,
understandably, remain in the top 53.2%.
What followed,
stunned the team of researchers
Element of surprise
(32.7%), Adventure – Complexity in reaching out to somebody
(31.2%), Anticipation (25.3%)
This implies that
the sample group favoured unpredictability as a major turn-on in
their sexual exploration. This could be largely attributed to the
fact that some values – Honesty, straight-forwardness, emotional
transparency, intellectual honesty and so on – are pretty much
understood and the participants consciously and carefully avoid
conversations in these areas.
When asked to
explain, unexpected delays during rendezvous or dates increased their
feelings of intimacy because they share their care and rush of
emotions clearly. Participants (roughly 67.1%) thus favoured a touch of
raw emotions compared to conscious (and controlled) exchanges of
ideas.
The transformation
period from expressing interest to realizing the interest to a
convincing level in both the partners is crucial for dating apps.
The results of this study will uncover many potential research areas
around the elements of surprise in budding relationships.
