Participants: Subjects are of various genders, sexual orientations, races and ages
Methodology: Random sample of subjects were asked one of two set questions delivered neutrally with little [as possible] researcher bias. This was done by using two different reseachers to deliver the survey
Q. is it reasonable for a guy to ask his gf for her passwords?
P1 :he is just saying he doesn't trust you
its kind of immature of him
p2: FK NO, lol well if a girl asks me for all, hell no. sum are ok.
p3: no, he may be your partner but u still have your own privacy.he should put it in the past and leave it at that, not try to check up on u as it is now..and he is also checkin up on u cos he cares for u
but yet i wouldn't like the thought of a guy checking up on me...
p4: no, i think that's going to far when it comes to privacy. There has to be some sort of privacy
when a guy asks that hes just being insecure and paranoid...and from my experience..... shit goes downhill from there
p5: no, she is allowed to have her own privacy and life on the side. he is just insecure if he asks that.
p6: not really. he doesn't need to get into them, there yours.
might be different if u both trade passwords or something but it seems like a weird request to me
p7: no, never. unless it is absolutely necessary or something that isnt important. everyone deserves their own personal space. there are things that people are not able to share,emails especially,who u speak to, how you speak to, is of no concern to them. there is absolutely no need for them to know what your emails consist of
Q : is it reasonable for a girl to ask her bf for his passwords?
P8: no, privacy is privacy.its like everyone's own personal pandora's box
P9: reasonable is in the eye of the beholder, but for me i would not entertain such a request.
p10: if a girl asked me for mine. only way i will give . if she gives me hers, cause that's fair trade
p11: not really what for? give him sum privacy
p:12: no, and its not alright for her to go through his phone and check up on him by calling his friends. relationship all about trust
p13: if there's a reason to, like needing to check something for them. but otherwise, to have his passwords just for the sake of it seems a lil overbearing
Results: As we can see from the results 84.61% of subjects believe it is wrong to demand a password from a spouse. Whilst the rest believed it depended on the situation, or did not answer the question correctly (lol).
Conclusion: As the sample size is relatively small, further research must be undertaken. However from this sample we can observe with a 90% confidence interval that asking for passwords is not reasonable thus confirming the hypothesis.
