/24-7PressRelease/ - SAN RAFAEL, CA, March 30, 2008 - "The American singles scene has been revolutionized over the past 30 years," says Rich Gosse, Chairman of American Singles. "Singles at our parties are no longer looking for one-night stands. There are two reasons for this. "First, the onset of A.I.D.S. A generation ago romantic eligibles could engage in casual sex without much fear of deadly diseases. Second, drunk driving laws are much more strictly enforced today. 30 years ago singles drank at our parties like there was no tomorrow. Now the average person has one or two drinks, because no one wants to be arrested for driving under the influence. Today's sober crowds are much less likely to lower their inhibitions to the point of going home with strangers.
"American Singles has adjusted to this profound change in behavior by altering the focus of the parties. In 1978 the main purpose of the parties was to help singles find a date. Now the goal is far more ambitious—to help everyone find someone special for a lasting relationship."
Rich Gosse is the author of eight books on this subject, including You CAN Hurry Love, Singles Guide to the Bay Area, and A Good Man Is EASY to Find ("This is a great book!" - Oprah Winfrey ). His expert advice has been featured by ABC, BBC, CNBC, CNN, MSNBC, Oprah, Donahue, The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, Cosmopolitan, Business Week, Entrepreneur, Playboy, Playgirl, The London Times, The Australian, The New Zealand Herald, etc. Mr. Gosse is available for interviews by calling 415/479-3800.
