Why Real Connection Feels So Hard Now: Sex, Dating & Relationships | Jenn Pinkerton
Why are people having less sex, struggling to date, and finding it harder to build meaningful relationships? In this episode of More U , Dom and Dr. Ben sit down with Jenn Pinkerton , a relationship and sex expert, to unpack what is happening to modern dating, intimacy, and human connection. The conversation begins with a surprising trend: sexual activity has been declining across multiple age groups, including younger adults and married couples. Jenn explains why she believes emotional safety and connection are at the center of a thriving relationship and sex life. From dating apps and instant gratification to unrealistic expectations, emotional vulnerability, porn, sex robots, and the pressure to find the “perfect” partner, this conversation asks whether modern relationships have become too transactional—and whether we're losing the ability to slow down and actually connect. Jenn also explains the difference between spontaneous and responsive desire , why communication matters so much in sex, why couples sometimes need to intentionally schedule intimacy, and why being present in your body can completely change your sexual experience. And the conversation goes somewhere even bigger: What happens to human connection as technology continues to replace real-world interaction?
