could you talk more about the not being able to talk to women thing?
Yeah, the gist of it according to my friend (and my memory is a tad shoddy as we had the conversation a while ago) was that as the abundance of pornography increased tremendously, and face to face/telephone interactions decreased, that it changed the dynamic of intimacy between men and women, drastically cutting emotional intimacy in favor of physcial:
1) men have become increasingly unable to think of women as anything but sex objects, and given that men can't talk about fucking all the time to the chicks, they struggle to come up with anything at all. Akin to watching porn becomes pretty much a person's biggest hobby outside of work, but that's not really a hobby you share.
2) they watch porn and try quick dating apps where after exchanging a message or two, they want to fuck the insatiable whore they've met right away.
She was complaining how this sucks for women and her (she was divorced; was living cross country from her hubby due to work and did a surprise visit only to find another woman living with her husband) and how she struggles to find a suitable mate. The lady is a total catch (intellectually brilliant and gorgeous), but struggles in the love game.
