Young men reproduce these sexual expectations—what I call the myth of the pickup—collectively when interacting with their male peer group. Again, according to Brian, a nineteen-year-old Cuban sophomore:

Whether I would get any girl’s phone number or not, the main purpose for going out was to try to get with hot girls. That was our goal every night we went out to frat parties on campus, and we all knew it, even though we seldom mention that aspect of going out. It was implicitly known that tonight, and every night out, was a girl hunt. Tonight we were taking that goal to Philadelphia’s nightlife. In the meanwhile, we would have fun drinking, dancing, and joking around [emphasis added].
