If you are a male, swiping your iPhone or worse still, typing with both thumbs all day long … Guaranteed you will become Tim Cook the gay tycoon someday.
Smoke a joint, sip a glass of wine … That’s way forward.
Now get ready for sex. Have some pokies as starter …

The study, which involved around 3,000 participants aged between 25 and 34, found that one in three people reported a decline in their sex life since they started taking smartphones and tablets into the bedroom.
Overall, the results suggested the effect could be as large as half of the sample group, according to De Telegraaf.
Clearly, they feel differently to the 20 percent of the different group of 18-34 year olds use their phone during sex. Presumably that’s the camera, rather than trawling Twitter or ordering take-out, but you never know.
