Endorsement dating is on the rise, but That ’70s Show star Danny Masterson, a convicted rapist, proves the high risk of vouching for your “amazing friend”.
It’s the all-too familiar story you’ve most likely heard from a female friend when it comes to an unsuccessful dating experience.
The premise is relatively simple: a woman in the group will post some photos and basic info about their single male friend that they’re vouching for. The single and interested women within the group can comment on the post if they’re interested in being set up, and from there, the poster can put the singles in touch to organise a date; matchmaking mission complete.
There’s a pretty big fallacy in testifying for potential partners that society tends to glance over, and that’s the belief that because someone makes an excellent friend, they’ll be an ideal romantic partner. Sure, an individual can be a great mate, showcase support, laugh at your jokes and offer companionship. But the dynamics of a romantic relationship include so much more than that, and traits shown in one type of relationship never guarantees they will transfer to another.

Parliamentary security committee issues ‘please explain’ on Clare O’Neil’s terror relistingSky News can reveal the chair of the Joint Committee on Intelligence and Security issued Home Affairs Minister Clare O'Neil with a 'please explain' notice last week over what appears to be a bungled terrorist relisting process by her department. Chair Peter Khalil wrote to his Labor colleague on behalf of the committee on September 6, asking for clarification on Ms O'Neil’s endorsement in relisting of Boko Haram, Islamic State and Islamic State West Africa and whether she had in fact written to the Attorney-General as is usually the case. Last month, Sky News revealed Ms O'Neil had not provided important written support for the June relisting in a move that would increase tension between Ms O'Neil and the Attorney-General over their division of responsibilities. The Counter-Terrorism Coordination Centre's First Assistant Secretary Chris Field responded to the letter on Monday, confirming an 'administrative error' had been behind the lack of formal written input from the minister. The measure acts as a deterrent to would-be terrorists and puts the public on notice that being a member of or providing donations to a listed group is a serious criminal offence.

Western Sydney International Airport’s terminal ‘about to hit top out’Transport Minister Catherine King says Western Sydney International Airport’s terminal is “about to hit top out” after construction began in 2018.
