Part of this generation's problem with being obsessed with everything "retro" is not appreciating just how good we have it right now.


If you think gadgets replacing real human interaction is better you are not in touch with reality enough to see what has been lost.

If we are headed to a world of non personal, non interactive, cyber sex then think of me as this guy wanting to have sex the old fashioned way.

Never intimated such. "Gadgets" can promote more human interaction than in the past, too. Case in point: I don't have to write my wife letters or wait by the phone to communicate with her while we're apart. I'm able to reconnect/coordinate reunions with college friends who would have been long lost to distance in the past.

And let's not pretend that the past was totally interactive, either:

Yeah, Tinder, Grindr, Craigslist and the like aren't going anywhere. Come on, now. If anything, people are using technology for nookie like never before.
