Were men this weird pre-internet, ask women

MILLENNIAL women are asking their elders if men were this peculiar before the online era or if the internet is to blame. 

Women are seeking to pin down whether males of the species were decent and normal, as opposed to profoundly batshit with bizarrely niche sexual tastes, in the years before wifi or if it has only exposed already-existing tendencies.

Joanna Kramer, woman, said: “My date last weekend was late because he’d been watching a livestream of a guy building a cabin using only cans of soup.

“He then spent 20 minutes arguing that medieval peasants had superior gut health because their diet had dung in it, and kept excusing himself to contribute to a subreddit about pigeons being government drones. I’m 32, I want to have a baby with someone.”

Elle Shaw agreed: “Did men of the early 90s want to have it off with stepsisters they don’t have? Is it a fantasy because it’s in porn or the other way around? Which came first?

“I find it hard to believe that the average 1986 man, using only a Yellow Pages and a landline, would have found that his idea of good sex was being pegged while dressed as Heidi. But today that seems to be the baseline.

“Giving the internet to men was like feeding a mogwai after midnight, is my conclusion. It’s turned them all into f**king freaks.”

Professor Henry Brubaker, of the Institute for Studies, said: “The Internet helps alleviate the male loneliness epidemic. However, it is also the leading contributing factor.”
