The original prologue from Sonichu #8, where dating education was first mentioned
Those who can, do; those who can't, teach

Those who teach, can't.
Chris, Mumble 4

Dating education is Chris's term for the formal instruction he believes should be available to instruct people on how to date. The concept is intended to be analogous to sex education; Chris's premise is that it is pointless to teach young people how to interact sexually if they don't even know how to interact socially (because, you know, everybody needs lessons on that). As with "sex ed," Chris abbreviates dating education to "date ed," and is overly fascinated with the (alleged) joke that the idea of "date ed" sounds "dated."

Judging from a Mailbag reply he posted, Chris considers the Dating Education Class to be one of his most noteworthy "inventions," alongside Sonichu, Rosechu and some Lego contraption for carrying Pokémon cards. But what exactly does this show us about Chris? Chris believes that he should give people advice about something he knows absolutely NOTHING about. Not as if this is new, after all of the leaked chats he's had with his girlfriends, talking about his expert knowledge about how to make sex enjoyable.

Origins

Consistent with his autism and his particular refusal to accept reality, Chris tries to seek out clear, direct steps in social interactions where his natural gut instincts and social skills (or lack thereof) fail him. While modern psychology offers such people social skills groups which address the root issues by introducing basic social skills, Chris instead prefers his own notion of dating education and would rather sit around waiting for the public school system to implement it. In fact, his school apparently did have a "Coping Skills" class, mostly likely part of a special education curriculum, which he was required to attend. But he says that he'd either read Goosebumps or sleep through class. So really, it's entirely his fault that he has no idea how to act around a lady.

Intended goals

In his own words, Chris describes why he feels the need for sex ed:

As I have proposed the idea in my adult life within my Sonichu Comic Books, and a bit before then, High Schools SHOULD have Dating Education Classes along with the Sexual Education Classes. In my humble opinion, Sex ED is fine for AFTER 3 or so DATES, but HOW DO WE EVEN GET TO THE FIRST DATE?!!! If I had the Dating Education back then, I wouldn't have to had suffered being a frustrated virgin for soo many years.

Wikipedia autobiography

He genuinely believes the reason why he doesn't have a sweetheart is not due to the fact he's lazy, fat, ugly, racist, homophobic, a liar, and an overall failure but that he merely doesn't know how to date and has no experience. In his mind, most people are single because they don't know how to go about on a date, not due to personal defect.

Here it may be important to differentiate real life Sexual Education from Chris's warped notion. Had Chris not been sleeping or reading Goosebumps, he may have noticed these courses provide not a step-by-step description of how to pound china, but provide a source of reference on responsible sexual behaviors. Instead of a run-down of myriad STDs and preventative methods, Chris assumes the course provided the same educational experience he's gotten from countless Pornos. His proposed class depends on a conceit that has no worldly counterpart. In short, Chris is an idiot and has no idea how anything works.

Analysis

In principle Chris believes dating education should be taught in high school as a companion course with sex ed; however since the primary audience for this class is himself he has depicted it as being available at a collegiate level as well. To persuade the world to introduce date ed Chris devoted Episode 19 of Sonichu to demonstrating his vision. However, the paradox of dating education is that it is supposed to teach Chris things he doesn't know, while his depiction of it is necessarily limited to teaching only what he does know, which is limited to the children's book How to Talk to Girls. As a result, dating education ends up being a semester of being sequestered away from potential mates while chatting with them anonymously over the internet, until love arbitrarily happens. Presumably, under Chris's understanding of love, his characters will be trolled relentlessly in the meantime.

Also, Chris's schooling in the past has helped him little. Despite taking sex ed classes, he believes he can recycle his semen by swallowing it; despite taking art classes, he still cannot hold a pen correctly; and despite taking a marketing course at Piedmont Virginia Community College, he still takes Axe commercials as gospel. Even if Date Ed did exist, Chris would most likely learn nothing from it.

In short, Chris believes he is capable of teaching something he is demanding that be taught to him and others on a grand scale.

**This was an Open Question with Multiple Answer Variation depending on person writing the essay.

**Here is what I feel is the BEST EXAMPLE of an answer from Chi-Chian of the PSN; Congratuations! =D

1. Aprroach the boy
- "Hi, what's up!"

2. Get the name
- "I'm Alex, what are you called?"

3. Find out more, get his interest
- "So what are you into? What music do you like? Seen any good movies lately?"

4. Give feedback, get opportunities for him to ask questions and get interested
- "I'm into anime (my favorite is Puni Puni Poemy, by the way - Kobayashi Poemi is so funny!!). I’ve seen that movie too! I like that actor."

5. Give interest/compliments back
- "I love your haircut (t-shirt, belt. etc)! What's that cologne?"

6. Get more intimate details
- "So how old are you? Come here often? You from around here?"

7. Food is a conversation foundation
- "Can we go get lunch/dinner? Can you buy me something to drink?
(I think a gentleman should buy the lady a drink. although I don't drink alcohol or smoke)."

8. At the food place you can expand on the themes previously discussed, such as art, music or cinema. but allow the boy to talk as well, support him if he gets shy or stumped.

9. A walk to help with digestion. Usually there's a couple of shops around in crowded places, so you can always visit a couple together. Not necesserily buying anything, just browsing. A bookshop or a music/video store is always a good choice.

10. Alter the walk it‘s time to go, but this is where the telephone trade-offshould start.
- "It"s been really cool talking and walking with you and I'd like to do it again sometime."

On the CWCipedia

Surprise, surprise, Chris made a terrible article about his shitty idea. Interestingly, the article was copy-pasted from an essay he wrote.

Originally written for a recent 2009 Community Support Contest sponsored by C-Ville's Battlefield Ford; too bad I did not win, but I'm not giving up on teaching our future generations the basics of Dating alongside Sexual Educaiton [sic].

BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!

Dating Education Classes can best enforce the Natural Man-and-Woman Pairings/Couples; the homosexual count would be reduced.
Chris, on Dating Education Death Camps, because men are only gay because they can't find a woman to fuck

Of course, it makes perfect sense to teach future generations dating education, because the overpopulation could sure use a boost now! Why would "future generations" need to learn dating education if they don't seem to be having trouble with it? Chris doesn't understand that for a grassroots movement, you need more than one person to support and promote it.
