The Washington Post offers a very narrow definition of sex


The continued and implied assumptions of this Washington Post piece are that sex is necessarily between people and is good in the absolute. However, these assumptions critically don't include any notion of consent nor sexual happiness.

How many of the reported sexless people truly are sexually unhappy/frustrated? I've seen #pornography availability being "blamed" for the rise of sexless young people, but what if pornography is enough for some people? Instead of being coerced into necessarily shallow relationships they don't need just to satisfy their sexual desires?
