It is more PC to call it a self-limiting act instead of an abnormal sexual practice?

Is everything not leading to procreation "abnormal"?

No... As with all things human there is the abnormal, and there is the normal. You know, yin-yang.

You can also just watch this video of Cheryl Cole... Never heard of her until about 3 minutes ago and her high heel scene almost made me release some liquid stress when I saw her frilly drawls and wet legs.

Ducks rape other ducks in nature. It's "self limiting", but occasionally I have ducks dies because of it. I get a real kick out of it, just like everyone else here based on the above statement.

Rape is an act of force. How is consensual sex an act of force?

No, abnormal is what is not normal.

As Bill Clinton would say, arithmatics. If somewhere between 90% to 99% aren't doing it, it ain't normal.

Why are you being so obtuse. It doesn't take a college degree here. I know it is pushing the boundaries of the liberal mindset, but give it a try.

Quote:In January of last year, Roman Sidorenko and Alexander Kukhtenko had an idea to break their sexual dry spells the way they solved many of their other problems: with an app.

"We wanted an easy way to find sex, basically," says Sidorenko. But the two friends (who describe themselves as "pomosexuals") were too impatient to use the available dating apps on the market, all of which required them to spend hours flirting with potential flings via chat or text message before getting a date and, possibly, sealing the deal. They knew there were horny people around them looking for sex — and nothing more — but had no way of figuring out where, and who, they were.

"We thought it would be cool to use an approach like Uber," Sidorenko says. "Where you basically create the request, and you get a car pretty soon. We thought it would be cool to have something like that to find a sex buddy."

From that brainstorm came Pure, a new app that brings the on-demand convenience of Uber or Seamless to the bedroom. On Pure, users designate their gender and the gender(s) of the people they'd like to sleep with, specify whether they are able to host or not, and are shown any other willing users in the surrounding area, each with an "Okay" or "No Way" prompt. When two users are mutually attracted, they're given each others' coordinates to meet up. There are no profiles, no lengthy chat sessions, and all unfulfilled requests vanish after an hour. Confidential user feedback keeps creeps at bay, and people who repeatedly no-show are banned.

Pure, which will launch next week pending approval by Apple's App Store ("we have a plan B," says Sidorenko), is the newest entry into one of the hottest subgenres of consumer tech: the minimalist hookup app. In olden days, people hoping to get their rocks off using the Internet had no choice but to try their luck on services like Match.com or OkCupid — which require them to fill out profiles, choose flattering photos, and spend hours crafting messages that likely went unread — or wade into the sketchy backwaters of Adult FriendFinder or Craigslist postings. Now apps like Tinder and Bang With Friends are offering itchy-fingered users the chance to cut out the chitchat and get down to getting down.

"People are becoming comfortable with a format of online dating that once sounded scary," says Dan Slater, author of Love in the Time of Algorithms. "If these new location-based, on-the-fly apps are largely for hooking up ... perhaps more people out there are looking for quick sex than had been originally thought."

Easy hookup apps aren't new — Grindr has been a staple of the gay community since 2009, and there has been a parade of copycats in the years since — but the success of Tinder and Bang With Friends seems to have pushed the idea into the hetero mainstream and attracted the interest of high-profile investors. Bang With Friends reportedly raised a $1 million funding round and was seen as dangerous enough for Zynga to sue it for trademark infringement. Tinder is backed by IAC and is a perennial target of acquisition rumors in Silicon Valley. Pure, which is hoping to ride the wave, raised a seed round of $200,000, according to Sidorenko, and is currently soliciting additional investments.

"It’s very interesting to see what Fifty Shades of Gray did for the pleasure-products industry," Sidorenko says. When that book became a monster hit, "it became okay to talk about BDSM stuff. It became okay to buy sex toys. This is the way the dating industry will be changed."

This is basically allowing heterosexuals to behave like homosexuals.

Homos want it whenever, wherever, with whoever, no questions asked, no relationships, etc. when heteros adopt the core of the gay lifestyle - whenever, wherever, whoever - they are acting like homos.

Not good for society. No upsides.

As long as the principle of non aggression is not violated...I say go for it. It is better than going to a hooker.

What suddenly made consensual sex abnormal? That is all this is IMO..just another in another form.

Painting a broad brush there. Anonymous sex is abnormal, consensual or not.

This app is something the gay community is going to love. Get ready for a new AIDS outbreak.
