McDonalds Hookup

Apropos of Charlotte Simmon, this from the Washington Post.

And this.

Hookup sex culture is like fast food culture: whereas food and sex were once part of the formalized ways of organizing human relationships and interactions, they are now part of the amorphous, informal human practice that bubbles up in the place of overturned cultural mores. The bubbles work pretty efficiently to make food and sex abundant for all. But humans didn't evolve in enviroments of abundance, and surfeit may produce a new set of problems.
