“We often associate the home with intimacy, personal connections, love, and sexuality in very positive relationship oriented ways.
Weber argues that rationalization and specialization in the working world spills over into home life and we see this with things like pornography, prostitution, and other online ways of experiencing sexuality.
What was once a personal, intimate endeavor is now simply a product that we can purchase.
We are hedonists that can have whatever we want, but we don't have the same personal relationships. We don't have intimacy as we used to. In the past, we may go home and enjoy our family and build relationships with our children. Now, we sit down and watch a movie or play video games. We don't have the same level of personal connection that we did in the past.
Entertainment is a product rather than a source of relationships.”
