Debra Soh: "We're Having Less Sex Than Ever" — Here's Why
Debra Soh joins Scott Galloway to discuss why people are having less sex despite a more sexualized culture, covering dating apps, testosterone decline, and the collapse of social venues.
The gist
-
Dating apps are structured to keep users scrolling, not to help them find partners, concentrating sex among a small number of people.
-
Social media distorts what people think they need to look like, pulling focus away from traits like kindness and humor that actually drive lasting relationships.
-
AI chatbots, pornography, and social media give a feeling of connection without the effort or vulnerability that real relationships require.
-
The loss of churches, bars, and community spaces removed places where men could show their value over time, which is how long-term relationships historically started.
