For me there are two particularly important topics that concern me and that I think are worth a lot of research. The first is the effect of the smartphone (starting with the iPhone, I guess), and the second is easy access to porn. When it comes to smartphones, I'm just amazed at how much it has changed how people behave not just on a daily basis, but apparently on 5-minute (or so) intervals. That's gotta have some significant consequence. When it comes to porn, I'm slightly less confident that things have changed significantly, but it still feels like things are different enough to possibly have some kind of large-scale consequences. I mean, I remember a pre-internet and pre-smartphone time where porn was relatively difficult to have access too. The difference is less pronounced than the change to the 'internet-smartphone age', but considering how powerful sexuality is to us, I can't help but wonder how much easy access to porn is affecting us, for better or worse.
