Men Seeking Women: Love and Sex On-line

by Po Bronson, Richard Dooling

Men Seeking Women: Love and Sex On-line is an exciting and original collection of new short fiction by men about men seeking women, and women seeking men in the digital age.

The Internet revolution has altered the look of the traditional relationship. Through e-mail correspondence, chat room chats, and message board postings, the manner in which we meet and mate has drastically changed. While the search for love is a timeless one, how and where we look has never been more a sign of the digital times.

Here, ten talented storytellers offer thoroughly contemporary portraits of relationships in the world of new media and high technology in chat rooms, porn sites and other on-line realms. Men Seeking Women is a fresh and unconventional look at the cyber-landscape of love, sex, and companionship.

Reviews

[Paul Doyle · Rating 3 out of 5]

It's a little dated, and disturbing / depressing in its own way. Short stories about internet dating. Makes me happy to be out of the dating pool.
