I don't think that's true for everyone. What I was trying to say awkwardly in an earlier post is that I cannot separate emotional intimacy from physical intimacy.
And to think of it that way it sort of brings around what my thread is about, emotional intimacy vs. physical intimacy. It seems that people are more connected in a superficial way, more information is being exchanged at a higher rate than in all of history, but how much of that information carries weight? People seem to be engaging in more sex and more openly than ever but increasingly the sex is beyond casual. It has no value, it's release, nothing else.
I personally have no feelings about these matters, no true opinions, just an observation. I'm just glad I'm permanently out of the dating pool
