In that encounter, it is the body in that specific moment that stirs the other's desire and is captured by the imagination, before being magnified, intensified and becoming part of the lover's very being. But what of our society today? Nowadays, technology has infiltrated every sphere of our lives, and its role in our daily existence continues to grow.
