I started using this new dating app recently. It's very easy to use. I works in a somewhat unconventional way. You keep your smartphone in your pocket and try to be aware of your surroundings. And then from time to time, you just see a woman having a bit of downtime, and you just go there and talk to her. Instead of writing a witty profile you have to instead come up with a witty excuse to initiate the conversation.

The downside is that it is more sporadic, so you might often get the perfect opportunity at the wrong moment. The upside is that the match rate is 100% and the follow up is also quite high.

99% of sex on film is casual sex and to claim that "casual sex" is normal and good is not straightforward to me.

For example most of the time with a macho male protagonist, they will show him using women for sex like disposable condoms. Another worrying trend on the rise is plot lines that basically glorify cheating.

I am not bothered by the sex or the nudity per se, but Hollywood loves to glorify characters with very problematic characters.

Younger people have less sex because they are more educated and much more picky.

Your comment is typical of a subset of progressives that have no acceptance for people who do not share the same values as them. Dare I say, that is not very progressive of you? What is wrong with having "puritanical conservative values" when it comes to relationships? Must one forcibly engage in orgies with strangers to be a "proper" progressive?

It never bothered me as a kid, but now for some reason I get triggered by the way Hollywood portrays romance. Why is everyone such a HUGE slut? It's such a huge turn off. It is actually really hard to find a film that portrays a healthy loving monogamous relationship.
