Ahead of the government’s lifting of all restrictions, The Independent spoke to Sex Education star Aimee Lou Wood about what advice she would give to single people who are feeling anxious about dating again. And like most societal things, it’s bulls***t. We live in this kind of patriarchy, and women feel as a result that they have to be the passive ones in order to be liked Aimee Lou Wood And I think a lot of the time, a guy is very thankful when a girl makes the first move, because they also don’t want the constant pressure of having to ask someone out. But I also think that again, there’s this pressure thing, because everyone’s saying, ‘this is gonna be like Woodstock in the 1960s’ and I think that can sometimes make people who aren’t ready for that feel quite freaked out. I have lots of friends that use Bumble, and it’s really close to their hearts because it’s kind of the only dating app that they feel truly empowered and safe to be on.
