Porn Kills Sex
Whow's Sorry Now?
If you live in the modernized Western world, according to this article you probably can't remember the last time you had meaningful sex with someone you love.
Turns out, this article tells us, the global porn industry is killing sex. "In fact, those doing research in this area cannot fail to notice the glut of surveys which report almost uniformly that people are not interested in sex: they are too tired, disillusioned and insecure about sex to enjoy it."
We're also becoming a-sexual. "And many of these people are now coalescing into what is a very new social category: that of the "asexual." Asexuality - the condition was the subject of an October 2004 edition of New Scientist - is where an affected person feels no inclination to interact sexually. With anyone. Ever. And if that sounds extreme, then it should be noted that asexuals have come from nowhere to occupy their own distinct and growing place in the sexual continuum: estimates in the United Kingdom and the United States show that between 1 percent and 3 percent of the population is now asexual."
You'd think this might be good for the pro-lifers...think again. The West is not pro-creating. America is definitely not pro-creating, which is why we're experiencing labor shortages which will get more pronounced soon. BTW, third world countries are still reproducing just fine. Definitely something to think about.
