Listen "Sexting Isn't Sexy If I Am Seeing You 24/7 and Other Conversations about Romantic Relationships and Technology"
Episode Synopsis
Have we got a fun one for you today! Have you heard of the term "ghosting"? If so, do you know what it means? (I had to Google it). You might be surprised to learn there is a whole line of scholarship related to the communication that happens--and doesn't--on platforms like online dating apps and social media. How do these platforms, where we can remain a little hidden, change the way we communicate with others? Our next guest is going to tell us all about it. Dr. Leah LeFebvre is an assistant professor in the Department of Communication Studies and studies the role of media technologies in romantic relationships, and really, so much more.
