Popular culture is obsessed with easy sex and the importance of dating, implying that we live in a new enlightened age of sexual promiscuity.  As an investigative journalist, if you penetrated the inner sanctum of a secret society and discovered the key to picking up women would you use it for good or bad?  Can too much sex and dating damage you irreparably?  What is the deep psychology behind our quests and fears of love and sex and who are the people making use of this knowledge.

Chaired by Sarah MacDonald
