One-Night Stands Are Overrated

Ladies, let’s be real for a sec—one-night stands? Not worth the hype. And before you come for me, let me clarify: I’m not here to shame casual sex. If that’s your thing, you do you. But let’s be honest, most of the time, a random man you just met is not about to give you the most mind-blowing night of your life.

For most women, good sex requires at least a bare minimum of effort from the guy. And if you really think a man who still texts “wyd” instead of forming full sentences is going to care about your pleasure, I hate to break it to you, but he’s not.

Most guys have been conditioned to see sex as something they “get” rather than something they share. And when they don’t actually care about you? Well, they’re basically just using your body to… you know.

Think about it—there’s no learning your body, no curiosity, and certainly no self-awareness that jackhammering for two minutes is not a flex. Meanwhile, you’re over here putting in Olympic-level effort, faking a few noises, and trying to convince yourself it wasn’t that bad. (Spoiler: It was.)

And let’s talk about the prep versus the payoff. You shaved, you lotioned up, you maybe even splurged on cute lingerie. For what? A guy who thinks foreplay is just taking off his socks? The math isn’t mathing.

Plus, there’s the risk factor—STIs, potential creep vibes, and the soul-crushing horror of running into him the next day when you’re just trying to buy iced coffee in peace.

And unless you somehow landed an actual pro, he doesn’t know what you like, doesn’t know what he’s doing, and—let’s be honest—probably doesn’t even know where the clit is.

Look, I’m not saying every one-night stand is a disaster, but the odds? Not in your favor. And if you’re looking for a night you won’t regret, maybe just light a candle, grab your vibrator, and call it self-care instead.
