Hmm, I wonder if it could a cultural thing?

I’m a millennial in Sweden and I have not experienced this phenomenon unless the person suffers social anxiety, though I must admit I have little contact with people under 25.

To me a call is convenient when I’m biking or working with my hands, and I can’t tell you how many times a simple phonecall spared me endless back and forth over text or e-mail.

Maybe I’m desensitized since I constantly receive and make calls at work.
