Virtual Sex

Do we all know what is going on out there with new ideas, virtual hook ups and a whole range of things that are happening. Robert Weiss has a great article titled 'Who Needs a Live Person For Sex'. Very interesting.
Just cause we think we may know it all doesn't mean we do. Does this effect the work we do with young people? have a read. CLICK HERE. Below is an excerpt

So how does a teenager develop the social and dating skills needed to build intimate relationships when all (or nearly all) of his or her romantic and sexual experiences are conducted online? If a young person’s interpersonal sexual and relationship experiences have mostly occurred in contrived, impersonal settings on the computer that offer him or her complete control over the experience (as is the case with many forms of online sex), then how is that individual to learn about engaging real people? Clearly, thanks to online porn and virtual sex, many young people are being left behind socially, developing few dating and mating skills.
