When an octogenarian sex expert tells you that the internets are bad for keepin’ it real, perhaps we should prick up our ears, or prick up something.
In an interview with AP to discuss her upcoming documentary project on minority groups in Israel, Dr. Ruth Westheimer, 82, cautioned that social networking and other online tools are replacing real intimacy. Real intimacy? Memba that?
“It is a catastrophe, all of this virtual being together,” said the tiny sex doc. “I think there are people who get hooked on the internet. If they need to look at explicitly sexual material to be aroused there is a problem … I am worried that the next generation will not be able to have a real conversation.” Like, awesome, I know, right?
Dr. Ruth added that it was all part of a trend of “more openness but less intimacy.”

this might actually be a good thing if it stops people from breeding.
