Maybe not. Less supply will lead to less demand. It will valance itself out

anfiction than reality. I think our young adults have lost the ability to communicate with one another and that’s why you have seen a rise in parasocial relationships like interacting with Twitch streamers for a form of friendship or by participating on OnlyFans to try and fill the void of a mate and sexual partner. I think it’s a very sad society being facilitated


Yep

And the Clot Shot Cult really screwed up these kids ability to communicate by pushing for extended lockdowns for a bad cold

The ramifications of the 2020-21 lockdowns will be detrimental for decades

I will gladly admit that i pay for sex at times

But I’m also a realist that gets that all men pay for it one way or the other.

So, as far as Valentine’s Day goes, why the frick would i want to spend a shite load of extra money on a woman when i can just pay a different one to cut past all the BS and just frick me without the extra nonsense?

Not necessarily. I stayed single a lot of those years to slay poon. Single on Valentines was awesome. Go to bar, pick up all the drunk single girls who are upset they’re alone on Valentines

A lot of those women may be dating older men. It really is fish in a barrel if you are an older guy, in good shape, and have your shite in order.


This is it. Which is way womens percentage starts increasing after 50 while mens stay constant. Men are getting divorced after kids are out of the house, probably make good money, and are dating the late 20s early 30s chicks

Props to you for your honesty

You ever want a mate/family? And which age bracket would you fall under?

I do think your transactional view of sex in a marriage is extremely jaded and cynical and that a marriage can be a really beautiful thing in which each person looks out for what the other needs and enjoys fostering the happiness of the other, and sometimes sex comes into play but it shouldn’t be framed as transactional IMO

IIRC, recent studies also showed Gen Z was having significantly less sex than previous generations. 2020 LINK



I think it’s fairly clear we have cultivated a socially inept generation.

I don't understand why so many men are single, yet no so for women. WTF is going on?


Women lie.

They also more likely to date older.

Lots of bisexual women in relationships with women.

Then there is the poly angle with multiple women in a relationship.

I think this generation definitely has slightly less sex than the generation before it.

The average person in said generation is having WAY LESS sex than the average person in previous generations.

A very small percentage of men and decent percentage of women are having WAY MORE sex than the average person in the previous generation.

53% of people aged 18-24 report having sex once a year or less, with 40% just saying they never have sex. And given that they reside in a data bracket where 63% of them are single, I’m tempted to agree with The Boat and say that’s a huge pool of potential incels being brought up.

Conversely, for the 36% of those men having sex once a month or more frequently, I’m sure they have plenty of options considering over half of their competitors aren’t even playing the game.

I don’t think it’s necessarily a lack of effort. While there may be a sizable chunk that have given up, I don’t think it’s really that large. I think far more are trying (or think they are), failing, and getting nothing. I think that dating apps and hookup culture have so warped women’s perception of their own value that they have less than zero interest in the overwhelming majority of men, and those men have no idea how to appeal to those women. The men that do appeal to those women get as many as they want, and never commit (because why would they).

The reality is that feminism actually has resulted in a world where a small percentage of men get infinite consequence free sex from as many willing women as they want while women have to work and maintain a home AND raise any kids produced from this sex alone.

Talk about your all-time scams!

It’s 100% true, as somebody who is technically in “gen z” although lots of these “high value guys” (lol) do have girlfriends… they are like the top 10-15% of girls though
