Dating Canadian Baby Boomers say Condoms are for Kids
Oct 24, 2010 Online Dating News
Hockey season is here again. And older dating Canadian singles will continue doing more than pucking. They’re heating up their empty nests on cold winter nights.
A national survey by the Canadian Liver Foundation found some interesting information that makes for good online dating news. The results from one thousand single men and women aged 46 to 64 prove they are reliving their youth and doing exactly what they have told their own kids not to do sexually.
- They are having one-night stands.
- They are engaging in sex with multiple partners.
- And they are failing to use condoms.
“Do as I Say in Dating – Not as I Do!”
When it comes to safe sex, the Canadian survey shows older singles aren’t practicing what they preach. While 70 percent of those surveyed say they tell their kids to practice safe sex, 30 percent of unmarried boomers admit they’ve had unprotected sex with a new partner. Furthermore, the same group said they aren’t worried about contracting a sexually transmitted infection or disease. The Canadian Liver Foundation was researching ways to prevent the widespread virus hepatitis as a sexually transmitted infection. Across Canada, there are 250,000 cases of hepatitis C.
Here are some of the other sex and dating facts found in the survey:
- 82 percent of baby boomers believe it’s important to have an active sex life at every age.
- 57 percent feel more free about having sex.
- 40 percent of men and 5 percent of women are open to one-night stands.
- 33 percent of unmarried boomers have done online dating.

Come Labor Day – Get to Work on Dating!
Sep 6, 2010 Online Dating Tips
While the official calendar says differently, Labor Day marks the end of summer in the minds of most of us. An online dating blog should look at this.
While the fall weather usually brings relief and a pleasant change outside, inside the minds of many men and women who are singles, Labor Day also means a shift in our thinking as we search for casual dating partners, sexual partners, or serious relationship partners. You can become more interested in finding a partner knowing what is ahead on the calendar.
Traditionally, if you hit this time of year, some of us might be looking for a special someone with whom to watch football games and create your own more exciting halftime show. For those of us who are unable to forget September 11th, that is certainly a day of reflection about where your life has gone, where it is at the moment, and where you want it to go.
But really, the next major milestone on the single’s calendar might be Halloween. That can be a really fun social event with a significant other. Next comes Thanksgiving. While turkey and all the fixings are often shared with family, having a person you’re dating can make everything taste better.
And then of course there is Hanukkah for some, and Christmas for the rest of us. All the wrapped presents in the world can’t replace the feeling of being wrapped in the arms of someone you love on Chrismas Eve or Christmas morning. So you can wait and ask Santa again for your perfect match. You can try to convince him you’ve been a good girl or boy. Needless to say, having someone to kiss at midnight on New Year’s Eve is really the only fireworks singles care about at all.
Or you can take a chance and put yourself out there in the world of online dating.
The internet is such an amazing tool. You use to search for things you want to find, things you want to buy, and things you want to learn about. So why not use online dating to find men or women to date, or find the perfect match of your dreams? You can’t use the internet to buy a person legally, but you can use it to buy an online dating service. And you can certainly jump into this process to learn more about yourself and other people.
So, if you don’t have an online dating profile, why not create one? If you already have a profile, why not give it a fresh look? AND SIGN UP FOR OUR 10 FREE TIPS TO CREATE YOUR PERFECT ONLINE DATING PROFILE!
Hopefully, either of these actions will lead you to the goals you have and the happiness you want in sharing all that life has to offer with a relationship partner. So, now that Labor Day has come, why not get to work on dating? Improve your social life before the long, lonely days and nights with Old Man Winter!

Apple’s Sexual App: The iPhone
Aug 11, 2010 Online Dating News
Adam and Eve couldn’t resist it. Dating back to the beginning of time, they bit into the forbidden fruit and became very intimate as man and woman. Thousands of years later, the Apple is still too tempting to resist.
Apple is one of the richest companies in the world because of irresistible products like the iPad and iPhone. But apparently its customers are too tempting to resist sexually as well. A new study shows that on average, iPhone owners get more sex than people with an Android or Blackberry.
Wow… the iPhone from Apple really is a Smart Phone!
According to published statistics of a study done by the online dating website, OKCupid.com, female iPhone users had twice as many sexual partners by age 30 than female Android users, and 25 percent more than women who owned a Blackberry.
Men who are iPhone users also had more sexual partners at 30 than guys with a BlackBerry or Android, though the margins were slightly less. The unscientific but interesting study was done with 10,000 anonymous men and women SmartPhone owners.
Now I know better. I thought I was getting screwed by having Verizon Wireless and a Blackberry service. Not as much as men and women with an iPhone.
