I find many of the claims suspect. We should all know by now that 50% of marriages less than five years long end in divorce, but if you can get past the 5 year mark, the divorce rate drops off significantly. [0] Further, the divorce rate is falling, not rising, and for recent marriages, following the trend since the 1970s, the 50% claim is off by a half.
Not that there isn't still room for improvement, but when an article starts off by siting a spurious fact, I've been lost as an engaged reader.
To be honest I’d choose sex with a computer, and I’d be very angry if someone tried to take that future away from me. Also, not only is this blog post bewilderingly heteronormative, it also assumes that intimacy = sex. Is it really unbelievable that someone would prefer to keep their sexuality entirely private, even to their SO? What is wrong with that?
Also, notice how they referred to sexless marriages as an “epidemic?” what the fuck
also, the only other post on this blog is titled "Seeking Female Cofounder for Sex Tech Startup" which is just so absurd. It's obvious he only wants a woman on board so all this doesn't just sound like a man telling a woman about her sexuality like he knows something

My feeling is the the author has a very special filter to view the world.
ps: this should have been posted to medium.com :)
