In a poll that appears to be from eHarmony (though it is reported on a UK website) found that 19% of married couples surveyed met online. The poll was conducted in 2006 and 2007 and surveyed 10,000 married couples. 17% of these couples met at work with the same percentage meeting through friends. In a similar poll conducted in 2004 and 2005, of the 5000 married couples surveyed, 14% met online, with 20% meeting at work and 17 percent through friends. There are no complete records kept on this sort of thing, but the percentages are low.

This is another question that correct statistics can't be given, but it's high. The internet is a great tool, but like all technology it has it's down side and in this case it's making people lazy and instead of meeting or flirting upfront with people one-on-one it's so much easier to do it over the Internet where people can't see you. It gives some people false security/confidence in themselves as well as titillating the other person and themselves. I call it "the chicken way out." The old fashion way of meeting people is still far safer and means more in the long-run than flirting over the Internet. Some people in this generation has taken all the fun out of a lot of things by doing it over the Internet.

Examples informal social controls in a family?

Like their formal counterpart, informal controls exist to reward or punish people for acceptable / unacceptable behaviour (what sociologists call deviance). Informal controls cover a vast array of possible sanctions and tend to differ from individual to individual, group to group and society to society. Informal controls apply to informal norms of behaviour and they include things like ridicule, sarcasm, disapproving looks, punching people in the face and so forth.For example, at a Women's Institute gathering a disapproving look may be enough to tell you that people think it is not appropriate to flirt with the vicar. Amongst members of a criminal gang, however, it is unlikely that a disapproving look would be used as a means of informal social control should you tell them you intend to inform on their activities to the police.

Do emo or scene guys only like skinny emo or scene girls?

Guys like girls if they look good and also for their personality, style, interests, etc. If you are fat, no, a scene guy probably wont be interested in you. If you are normal size, however, you might have a good chance if your interests match his. He will like you no matter what if you can win his attention. Flirt, be yourself, and don't try to hard. A. uhmm haha.very funny. emo or scene guys can like any catergories of girls. well not in a hoookerface kind of wayy but in a sense of a way of some sort..usually theyll be cool and honest.usually most of them don't care about your weight..like the other person said--be yourself. i mean goshh if he likes you he can loook past it all-especially if hes scene or emo.------but FYI some emo and scene guys don't like flirty all in their face girls♥ B. Emo or Scene guys like any girls. One time, I was in Gettysburg and this Emo kid was checking me out and smiling at me. He looked like he wanted to talk to me, and I was looking as preppy as preppy gets. So just be yourself, and I'm sure Scene and Emo guys will like you =) C. No, we don't. I don't really care about what clique or whatever you're in i don't care if prep,scene,emo etc. If i like the girl and we have a lot in common and she likes me then sure thing. On weight skinnier girls are fine with me and a little more to hold on to dosent bother me but if you're talking like obese in extreme then it bothers me a bit. I have nothing wrong with them but yeah but to answer no we don't just like skinny emo or scene girls as long as we both are happy there is no reason.That's like saying do Americans only date Americans no they don't. Label drama is lame. People who say stuff like "preps and goths hate emos and scenesters." That's just stupid and ignorant. I'm scene and I'm really into a goth guy and he's into me too. If a guy likes you, he'll be sure to let you know. :) x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x That's so lame. All guys are different, some 'scene' (stupid label btw) guys LIKE fat chicks. Some like skinny chicks. All guys have their own taste. A few piercings and amazing hair doesn't change what type they like really. :3 C'mon looks do matter but by that i mean you don't have to be beautiful or even pretty be you and that's pretty enough. People have to face the truth a guy isn't going to like a very ugly girl (not saying that you are I have not seen you) I mean would you like a guy that gross ugly? Its f*****d up but its true. Don't get all "scene looking" just for scene guys to notice you. That never works. I bet you you'd get more attention with your own style if your not copying everyone. Also in general it's so lame why the hellz do people label themselves anyways? People act like if "Scene", "emo", or "goth" kids are like a different species. They're people when people call meh scene I say "nu I'm not scene, emo, or goth, I'm me."

For the same reasons that married women flirt with other men. Married isn't dead. I do it because I like to see the ladies smile and laugh, and because everyone enjoys a compliment. After 11 years, my wife is pretty used to it. Others may flirt for other reasons. If it's your husband, it something you should ask him.
