Identify prominent heterosexual dating rituals among young people in the U.S. today. Detail these rituals through all aspects of dating (from initiating a date to the conclusion of a date). Compare these dating rituals to those described by Bailey. Readingsbailey.pdf Download bailey.pdf Does an “economy of dating” still exist or has this economy disappeared? If it has disappeared, explain why and describe the system of dating that replaced it. If it has not disappeared altogether, explain how it operates differently today. How does “rating” factor into current dating rituals? Consider the extent to which changes in gender roles have impacted dating rituals from the fifties (the time period analyzed by Bailey) to the present. Be sure to also mention similarities between the two time periods. [Alternately if you have some knowledge of gay/ lesbian/bisexual dating rituals, you may write about these and compare them to Bailey’s account of heterosexual dating rituals.]
