I see a lot of people doing hookups when they're in a busy point of their lives and then settle down when they can afford to do a bunch of free labor
so if they didn't hook up they wouldn't be doing labor anyway, they just wouldn't be having sex.
Yes. Women want sex without the being forced into doing free labor that comes with it.
yes, and as a result they aren't avoiding the labor which you suggest wouldn't be occurring anyway because they don't have time for a relationship. Even if you were right it's an unsatisfactory analysis of hook up culture because men also take part in, as well as other genders. If your response is just that they enjoy sex, then I don't see how that reason doesn't apply just as strongly to the women.
They dont have time for a relationship while pursuing their own goals. They could get in a relationship and be economically dependent on a man.
If they couldn't take part in hook up culture, would they be doing that?
I mean it does go against the narrative of you have to find a man and settle down with him of you want to not be a spinster or whatever.
