    Sexual Databases

    As hooking up becomes more casual, people put less and less thought into choosing sexual partners. The gulf between sex and romance has never been as wide in the modern world (at least since the invention of the charming concept called “romance”). Expect the hook-up culture currently flourishing in American colleges to get even more popular with the introduction of technology. Social networking and massive databases could store your hook-up history and ratings and match you up with prospective sexual partners through Foursquare-esque geotagging, without you ever having to come up with a pick-up line.
