You're talking about something different then. The existence of tube sites should have no effect on people that already didn't care about sex and relationships. The point I responded to said that these sites are a main reason why certain men aren't pursuing sex.

No I'm talking about the same thing. Herbivore men don't care about marriage and committed relationships, that is different from not caring about their basic sexual needs which they do. As asexuality is not very common, they still need to satisfy basic biological impulses. Tube sites can replace sex as the primary way to satisfy sexual needs in the same way laptops replace desktops as the primary way to satisfy computing needs, or the way Soylent replaces cooked food as the primary way to satisfy hunger. Tube sites allow men who don't care about marriage and committed relationships to avoid pursuing sex through courtship & relationships the way their biology compels them to.
