I enjoyed reading this but I really need to know more about this closing line.
> I like that men have graduated from “prerecorded, untouchable porn” to “slightly more interactive porn with a facsimile of a slightly realer girl”
What is there to like about that?
- defrost 2y agoBehaviourally it's infinitesimally closer to holding a real conversation with real women?

- walthamstow 2y agoNeither of them are remotely related to having a real conversation with a real woman. That one of then is marginally, microscopically closer means nothing. A guy was having a wank alone with a video and now he's messaging a low wage worker pretending to be a hot girl. It just doesn't seem like an improvement. The author has an interesting perspective so I'd like to know more.
- defrost 2y agoThat's right Bob, the start of the journey isn't the destination. Very insightful.

Much like editing responses to answers to questions that should have remained rhetorical and unposed? It seems clear that the author believes that interaction is an advance over non interactive activity.
- walthamstow 2y agoThe interaction is not with the person providing the sexual gratification, it's with a third party, that is what is so bizarre and difficult to understand for me.
