Abstract

Online dating is an inevitable phenomenon in this digital age. The close interaction of digital natives with the internet makes them seem to entrust all activities in their lives to the internet, including dating and finding a mate. This makes them more likely to use online dating applications. This thesis investigates the drivers of the use of online dating applications by the digital natives, their opinions about online dating application and how the use of such application is different or the same between Indonesians and Americans. Data collection techniques are using questionnaire and interview. The secondary data in this study were obtained from other sources such as research results presented on the official website. This research found that there are many factors that influence digital natives in using online dating applications. This study reveals an array of eastern philosophical ideas, such as the predominance of female gendered application users in Indonesia, which implies that the gender line has become more ambiguous.

Abstract

The two well-known female musicians, Billie Eilish and Taylor Swift are examined in connection to their grooming relationships within different periods, specifically in the pre-and post-Me Too movement. The study uses comparative analysis, and feminist media theory was implied, it explores public perceptions, digital magazine portrayal, and cultural awareness of on grooming relationships depicted by celebrities. The pre-Me Too era, characterized by romanticized portrayals of celebrity romances and a shortage of investigation into power dynamics, gave rise to accusations concerning Swift’s grooming relationship. However, when the Me Too movement gained popularity, Eilish made her charge at a period when grooming techniques were more generally acknowledged and denounced. This article highlights how societal perceptions of consent, power dynamics, and ethical problems in relationships have evolved using news reporting, cultural discussions, and public responses. The findings demonstrate how public discourse, along with an understanding of celebrity grooming relationships, has been revolutionized by social movements such as Me Too. In the context of evolving societal norms and values, they also illuminated how the public’s views and media portrayals are shifting.
