I just read this article re: the sexual behavior of college students. This article reports on research done by Mark Regnerus, who wrote Forbidden Fruit that I wrote about several times a month or so ago. And it made me chuckle because at BYU (where I did my undergraduate degree), we had something similar to “hook-ups,” although they didn’t involve casual sex. BYU undergrads had what we called “friends with benefits” or “NCMOs” (non-committal make-outs).
And for what it’s worth (because I’m sure everyone here is dying to know), I never had any NCMOs. [Of course, I got married when I was 19 . . .]
