It depends on the context. I’m more or less an old-fashioned romantic. When I set out to go on a ‘traditional first date’, I kind of expect it to turn out as such. Dinner, a movie, hanging out together, lots of chitchat, having fun. Sex does not have to be part of the equation. I actually prefer this as such. There’s something to be said about moving slowly in the beginning of what might be a burgeoning relationship. It’s more fun, you look forward to the next date, plan things accordingly. This also lets both parties know more about each other and helps suss out any potential incompatibilities. An ideal date leaves me with a smile on my face and looking forward to the next one.
The above is completely separate from just going out for some quick fun, however... *eg*
