I am thinking of the mindset of wanting to hook up with as many people as possible not taking into consideration other people ‘s feelings or who might get hurt in by the process, which objectifies other individuals. That is an individualistic thought process, right?
Edit: I meant commodification in the sense of online dating apps, escort services, only fans, porn, prostitution and patriarchy. This trickles to the culture due to base and superstructure, and it is adopted by individualism.

Hookups that happen through apps and services are being commodified and the commodification of hookups is bad, but it’s not “hookup culture” that commodified hookups. It’s dating apps and services which are attempting to enclose the commons and turn hookups from just a human activity into a commodity.
But a hookup, as just something people do, is not itself just a commodity. Not yet. People still go out and meet other people for free.
