courtingproject 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2013 Dating is going out alone with a boy or girl on a "date". Courting is a bit more of a formal process with guidelines. Like asking the father's permission, having chaperoned outings, no kissing, sometimes gifts for the family before dating the daughter, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vort 17307 Report post Posted March 18, 2013 Casting call for families with daughters age 14 to 24 who practice Courting instead of dating.What does that mean? In the context of unmarried socialization, "courting" and "dating" are more or less exact synonyms, the former being the term of choice three or so generations ago.

Jennarator 18 Report post Posted March 18, 2013 I would put the time I was dating my husband, before married or engaged as a courtship and that was alone, one on one dating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
courtingproject 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2013 Vort, no, that is not entirely correct. It is a more formal method of intermingling. Some LDS and many fundamentalist Christian families do not approach "dating" the way non-religious families do...which is, "hey, a guy is here to pick up my daughter...have fun honey, be home by 9" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

courtingproject 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2013 It's not "courting" in the modern context. I'm not arguing the point or definition, just saying that courting is a movement. If you don't know what it is as a movement, you are not right for this show. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although I'm over 24....twice to be exact. So that leaves me out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
