Very cool idea. I love this.

This was one I did not think I was that interested in, but then found myself shouting "Yes!" on the inside, and reading every word. Because what Randa Sakallah is curating is not only people - but connections, and stories, and love, and that is what we are all interested in, wherever we are, and whatever we're reading, from Jane Austen (yes) to Proust to the New Yorker to Hot Singles. Thank you, great conversation!

It's fun how many different topics are covered on Substack, and all the different ways they are covered! We all kind of fit in somewhere and there are so many unique takes, it's pretty cool!

After a long relationship l decided to be single. I bought a motorcycle and soon wanted to date. Introducing myself to women is easy. I'm seductive, so meeting women along seawall or shopping is easy.

"But," when l dated on POF, l met many dysfunctional women. I found teachers had issues. I met two psychotic women. I met older women. I met busy women just wanting to get laid. Rendezvouses, weekend encounters, meet ups. Women are just as sexually aggressive as men on west coast. They have sense of entitlement. I prefer Eastern.

Women are equal to men on West Coast. They have good educations, jobs, pay, and women sometimes set higher standards that cannot be met by men so they remain single.

Best intimate women l spent with were foreign. Im still friends with. I met face to face. That way could hand them a flower, smile, and ask there name. I would walk with them and if kindly permitted me to hold their hand on the trail.......

Oh, heard vaccinated sex partners may pass substance(s) through body fluids to un vaccinated?? Just be safe.

Interesting take on what is hot and the single culture ! Wisdom, if it ever exists at all, is unlikely to be found among the living or the dead since everything might be dynamic, independent and self-indulgent.

I like your candor and honesty. It's a refreshing set of traits that should garner you a few dates. You will have to judge whether you get the same in return. I imagine declaring a person "hot" might encourage them to stay in the game versus settling down. Check out my piece on Ready To Love. Peace and tranquility, xk
