More Than Dinner and a Movie
The following post is the continuation of a weekly blog series called “Cultural Commentaries” by Family Council Communications Director Josh Mesker.
The pervading cultural attitude on dating appears to be that it is an end unto itself. Our culture says that dating casually is the way to have fun—merely something you do—until you’re ready to get serious about being in a relationship. I’d like to discuss this popular message and propose that dating isn’t just another activity. It should be treated as a means to an end, not simply as dinner and a movie.
