Cooper asks Wilde to break down the film's treatment of sex, particularly the scene where Seth Rogen's character says his wife is 'supposed to be attracted to him' without any participation in earning that attraction.

Being ghosted is particularly damaging for sensitive people because their brain doesn't interpret it as the relationship ending — it interprets it as evidence of personal insufficiency.
