This could spiral off into a whole other conversation about whether the ‘gig’ experience is an extension of the natural human (moreso male?) desire to ‘be fruitful and multiply’, which is suppressed by long-term, one-person relationships. Or maybe we all just want to be like James Bond.

While I agree with the accuracy of the angle you took on it, I also believe that the gik fad isn’t necessarily a mere ‘reaction’ to the social norm, as much as it’s a reversion to previous existing, yet suppressed social norms.
