Socializing

Public displays of heavy affection are not so common and can be construed as rude behavior. Best to avoid them.
It is safe for women to dine alone and walk alone in well lit populous areas at night. It is always advisable to walk with a friend and avoid dark under populated streets and areas.
Most students socialize by going to clubs and pubs. Private house parties are also common.
Drinking is acceptable if not in excess. Smoking is a strict no-no especially for ladies.
When it comes to dating, women rarely ask men out. Men are expected to do all the courting.
For first dates, dinner, movies, or a drink are the most common things to do. Spending a night at the guy’s place is usually unacceptable.
