We find the message regarding a healthy sexual lifestyle presented On Grounds to be unbalanced because it promotes physical safety solely through various forms of contraception and emotional satisfaction through promiscuity. We seek to offer students at the University of Virginia an alternative to this hook-up culture. University-sponsored wellness groups consider consent to be the only factor in determining what constitutes an acceptable sexual act. We argue that there are other issues to be considered in order to promote a truly healthy sexual lifestyle.
Mission
Off The Hook strives to consider the physical, emotional, and social consequences of sexual activity.
We seek to create a supportive academic environment to investigate the sexual choices offered to Virginian students.
We challenge each other to be deliberate, loving, and honest in all our encounters and relationships.
