“Sex is no longer a beautiful thing", she said. "It has become an entirely separate entity from what was quaintly known as making love. It's been transformed into a game between the sexes. It is as deceptive as chess and as anonymous as those men in helmets, racing cars on TV. This generation of men and women have turned it into a frenetically overenergetic contest and a performance. The more outlandish the game, the more popular it becomes".”

“I didn’t see clearly how you were right about the hypersexualization of this world. Men and women both chasing sex because they lack substance, because they lack personality, because they marinate in the old smelly sweat of one-night stands and broken hearts, they marinate in the fluids of bodies whose souls they have never met and whose eyes they have never looked into, their breath reeks of body fluids. They have cheapened sex and they have cheapened connection and bonding. Their breath stinks from cigarettes and alcohol and they have no idea how to make sweet love, they have no idea how to have a true orgasm. They have no idea how to love, they have no idea how to maintain a conversation beyond the repulsive small talk and the fakeness that reeks from their tongues.”
