Thirty percent of women who use online dating services have had sex on a first date, according to a study by Sexuality Research & Social Policy, a journal of the National Sexuality Research Center. The research was conducted by Paige M. Padgett, Ph.D., and published in the June 2007 issue of the journal. The name of the study is Personal Safety and Sexual Safety for Women Using Online Personal Ads.
While the 30% of women having sex on the first date may surprise people, even more shocking is that out of that number, 77% of them didn't use any protection during the sexual encounters. Some online dating services make it easy for people to meet up for sexual encounters by offering "Intimate" or "Erotic" services to members.
"Risky behaviour like this, from both males and females, is contributing to the dramatic rise of sexually trasmitted diseases," says Joe Tracy, Publisher of Online Dating Magazine. Online Dating Magazine, a consumer watchdog publication for online daters, also contains an STD Info Center with educational information about sexually transmitted diseases. "When you have unprotected sex with people you are meeting online, you are playing russian roullette with your health. It's not a matter of 'if' you'll get a sexually transmitted disease, but rather 'when' and 'how many'."
Safety measures some women use before meeting a man, according to the study, are:
1) Googling him.
2) Running a background check.
3) Not giving any personal information (like address, phone number, etc.).
4) Revisit subjects already discussed to see if the man is lying.
5) Gut instinct.
The study shows a strong popularity of online daters using email to communicate with each other. Some women set sex boundaries via email, others made it clear there would be no sex on the first date, and others didn't discuss the subject at all.
The study showed that neary 3/4ths of those who had sexual encounters never discussed STDs or AIDS. And email apparently played a major role in how far intimacy went so quick. From the abstract:
"The high frequency and intensity of email communication prior to meeting in person cultivated acceleration of intimacy for the individuals involved and may have affected somen's decisions to engage in risky sexual behaviours."
The study used a survey placed on various online dating services and targetting women. The survey was completed by 740 women of which 568 said they had met someone in person. While 30% had sex on the first date, some were specifically looking for that.MORE

Despite what they may say, almost every woman enjoys receiving a gift from her partner or date. Giving the woman you love a romantic gift is a gesture that shows that you have been thinking of her. But you should put some careful thought into what sort of gifts you buy and when you buy them. Buying a gift every time you go out will simply diminish the surprise element of your gesture, and buying an inappropriate gift will make your good intentions appear thoughtless.
If you want to buy a gift within the first few dates you should keep it really simple. Flowers are probably your best bet. You won’t really know enough about your partner to buy anything else – even chocolates can be tricky until you have found out more about her. She may be allergic to chocolate, she may only like dark chocolate or soft centres, or she may be dieting…until you know these things about her, even something as apparently simple as a box of chocolates can be the wrong gift to buy.
Larger items like jewellery are a definite no until you have got to know her properly. Buying gifts like this early on in a relationship – even if you do know what sort of jewellery she likes – may put her off and make her think that you are getting too serious, too quick. In time, you can start buying items like this but only when you are sure that the relationship is going somewhere and that she will not feel overwhelmed by your expensive gift.
Trips and short breaks to romantic destinations are a great way of surprising her – but again, these should be reserved for later in the relationship. If you make a gesture like this early on before you even get to know her properly, you may find yourself stuck in Paris for three days with a woman you don’t even get on with that well! Plus, she may be angry about you assuming that she’ll go away with you by buying the tickets without even consulting her.
The best way to decide on gifts for your loved one is to listen to what she says. You can find out a surprising amount about a person just by their general conversation, and by picking up on seemingly small talk you can really get a feel for her likes and dislikes. But until you have found out more about her and you are sure that she is comfortable with the relationship, hold off buying those larger gifts and stick to small, simple gestures.
