<p>Okay, truthfully and honestly, I was at Cornell last summer and I even stayed over at a friend's room just to see what the campus was like this Spring. Frankly, I didn't see a difference between the girls/guys at Cornell and the girls/guys at my 4 high schools. Even though the girls are like 1% lower, i admit. But seriously, if youre a dude, and you have enough confidence and are man enough, then shut the hell up and wait till this Fall and you'll realize all this constant ramblings about girls/guys here is completely ridiculous. If you still doubt it, then don't apply. We don't need people like you with those kinds of priorities.</p>
<p>Seriously, if you can't stand the girls here, go **** an inflatable poodle or something.</p>
<p>The same goes with "omgzz!! i heard cornell has the highest depression/suicide rate/panic attack/stroke/kidney warts/nasal mycoplasmas/whatever other stupid disease you can come up with". holy crap people, why dont you type in "Cornell university" in wikipedia, look at the list of notable alumni, and then come back and complain.</p>
<p>Well, I suppose you do have a point. It is blown a bit out of proportion. Most of these rumors about Cornell are downright false. However, after being at Cornell for four semesters, I can honestly say that the female thing is at least partially true, but it isn't as bad as some would make it out to be.</p>
<p>at least some of us here are already students, the females getting a C+ from college ******* is based on national standards...like i've said before girls in texas, arizona, california are just plain hotter than the ones at cornell...</p>
<p>if you've never been to texas, arizona, california, etc...then you wont have a problem ^__^</p>
<p>the hotness level is important...b/c i'm sure people plan on getting laid man...</p>
<p>Dude, you make it sound like people don't have standards, and you're making it seem like everyone is a shallow mother*<strong><em>er. Like 60% of people who graduate from Cornell get married to someone at Cornell, so *</em></strong> happens, and I'm sure it doesn't all depend on hotness. You prefrosh need to stop worrying about getting laid because most likely you'll be spending most of your time studying and worrying about prelims. Sex will come, it's not like there's a lack of chances.</p>
<p>Heh, I'm just saying, that at least from what I've seen and partially experienced, you can make-out with girls at parties and stuff, but actually getting laid most of the time requires a commitment. I dunno if that's good or bad...means that most girls are Cornell aren't whores, but also that you can't get pussy as easily.</p>
<p>Agreed. Casual sex happens frequently for those who don't mind having sex in a casual manner...errr, those less conservative in their choice of parter. If you are active in your search, and are liberal in your view of attractiveness, it is certainly there. One thing I notice though is that where you live does make a difference. It's much easier to bring someone back to your frat house or collegetown apartment than your...freshman dorm room.</p>
<p>But, if you've never gotten past second base in high school, chances are you won't be sleeping with a different guy/girl weekend. But, the drunken frat party hookups will be there regardless.</p>
<p>Plus, I know guys who were more sexually active in high school and have "given up" because their standards are too high. The girls they would be with aren't up to their standards, and so don't feel that "it's worth it" to put in the time to pursue women. You may fall into this category for some time, but hey, look on the bright side, at least your grades will be good! Even so, everyone get the "Cornell Goggles" eventually, and then even mediocre-looking girls will look like supermodels!</p>
<p>I'm not saying there won't be hook-ups. I'm just saying casual sex as a freshman was pretty hard to find, for reasons that would include just being a freshman. And yeah, you do get more liberal as the year progresses, there were a lot of kids who didn't drink of go partying first semester that started going out every weekend.</p>
<p>no, a f-buddy is totally different. I'm talking casual sex as in a random person you'll meet at a party and then take home for the night and then never talk to her/him again. Finding a friend with benefits isn't that hard, although by the time you get to that point you're almost in that awkward stage of being in a relationship where neither person wants to admit that's what it is.</p>
