Sexless in the city?

A piece by the Observer (fine journalism I know) suggests that our generation of 20-something technocrats has renounced sex for texts and tits for Twitter.

I'm not from new york so I really hope this is hyperbole. Any from the city care to comment on their experiences?

I'll sum up the comments on the article above: this is a reflection of the views of the fags who work at that paper. And by 'fags' I mean no disrespect to actual gay people. The city is a hedonistic playpen, and any single person under the age of 35 who's not participating whould seek professional help immediately....in fact, I'm sure that the professional girls would solve their problems in one good night.

The article is crap, probably cherry picks some geeks and in the previous thread there is another link to an article giving a very good answer to this nonsense.

But let me tell you, if there is a bunch of dudes thinking about tweets rather than peach, than I am happy cause I have more of it any day.

I think the article is completely false though (at least in my circle of friends).

Do what you want not what you can!
