While the consensus may argue that the hookup culture is only a problem “depending on the person,” Wade has undeniably proven that it is indeed a problem with students more often than not. For the most part, teens don’t recognize the overall issues that the hookup culture endorses. This is important to recognize what the hookup culture is believed to be compared to what it actually is.
