“There have been some fundamental shifts in the cultural aspects of how gender roles are defined. This becomes particularly clear in relationships. What is a man actually and how should he act? What is a woman actually and how should she act?… Reationships just don’t serve the same purpose as they used to. Men and women don’t need each other in the same way they used to.”
