We had a chance to sit down with the multi-talented, Zoe Strimpel before she heads off to How the Light Gets In festival at Kenwood House. We spoke with her about dating, relationships and does gender really matter when it comes right down to connecting with someone special?
That all men on apps are awful.
You’re asking the wrong person with that one!
The stakes are so high when it comes to gender. In dating, people’s true beliefs and preferences are revealed: what they want or expect a person of the opposite sex (in the case of heterosexual dating, which is what I study) to be. It tells you a lot about society’s true state of affairs, where gender is concerned.
I’d say not. A lot is made of the differences but I think the biggest differences are always between different people, not necessarily between the sexes.
Oh gosh. We can learn what people want, how they think you ought to go about getting it, and lots of new lingo! This is interesting for a historian, especially when you see old desires (e.g. for marriage and kids) hankered after in such contemporary settings.
I’m still learning!
I’d say just wait: it all gets so much better – at least for some – in their 30s.
We seem to be moving more towards polyamory and open relationships, and more creative use of technology. But on the other hand, traditional formats seem to hold firm. It’ll have more variety, but the old classics – marriage and romance – will also remain for some time to come.
