Oh dear, they are not enjoying even the most basic pleasure necessary to advance the species

Young American women—and young adults overall—are having significantly less sex than previous generations at the same age, marking a broad trend known as the "sex recession". Data from the General Social Survey and other national health studies show that sexlessness has roughly doubled among young adults since 2010.Comparative Statistics: Gen Z and Millennials vs. Previous GenerationsDemographic / MetricRecent Generation (Gen Z / Millennials)Previous Generation (Gen X / Boomers)No sex in the past year (Ages 18–25/29 women)25% of young women (Gen Z) reported zero sexual partners in the prior year.10 to 15% historically reported past-year sexlessness prior to 2010.No sexual partners since age 18 (Ages 20–24)5.4% of young women born in the early 1990s.2.3% of young women born in the late 1960s (Gen X).Share of young adults living with a partner32% of adults aged 18–29 (2024 data).42% of adults aged 18–29 (2014 data).Living at home with parents54% of Gen Z young adults (2026 data).Significantly lower rates at the same age in past decades.

So I read all this wondering what it’s leading to.
It seems there’s a choice many now make to not be sexually active or putana?

There’s a trend to needing less sex means people are more at peace with their choice to do so?

So this study, is it trying to point out….that there’s less joy in life?
Or is it saying something else?

Still interesting to see that sex isn’t a driving factor for these gens to feel the need to be part of the big picture.

I’m not going to ask how much sex or how often my millennial kids have…no way Grin

I caught myself chuckling under my breath today in the supermarket.
Humming “Manly man man” tune to that series 2 n half men.
A situation daughter told me she was at a petrol station, and she entered to pay, got in line, about 5 men in line before her.
There’s a young female upset at the very front with her card not paying petrol and she had no cash.
She needed to get somewhere to meet up with someone for appointment and said she would give her belongings with licence etc
My daughter saw all these men, looking away or ignoring it, pretend fly on walls or whatever (daughter mimics the way they did this which made me Pmsl)
Not one cared.
She then went up to see how to help and asked how much was the fuel … this young lass only got minimal to make it to her destination.
Daughter asked how much. It was under $10 so daughter paid with her own card for it.
The young girl was very thankful and said she wanted to pay her back but daughter said no it’s okay.

I said I hope that lass learnt to check finances before getting fuel from now on. Daughter said that’s what she told her.

Daughter is not flash with funds and lives frugally, but it’s a female helping female here.
I think she was perplexed not one male stepped up to help as well. Not one out of 5 standing there that whole time.
Then daughter does that rubber neck imitation again of the blokes looking up or away to the side pretending not to notice Grin

Im certain there’s a lot of men that do kind acts but not that day at that particular time.

It reminds me of when hubby in his time as apprentice and my son in his time as apprentice, how men in the industry could be mean to other men too.
Particularly younger lads.
There’s those awful testing initiations into the industry that has in past caused injury/deaths.
It’s not just women that could turn against women, but also males against males.

I honestly believe, in forums, we should not attack anyone personally, just dispute or debate what is said and why.

I thought of you as a SNAG Sprinty. A sensitive new age guy.
There’s variations of manliness and being a SNAG is one of them, whether some like it or not.
Just keep on keeping on.
There’s many that watch and read what is being written and looking at how we all handle ourselves in debate or critique form.

yes, toxic masculinity emerges often.
it enables immature men to hide their feelings

Aquascoot, something else just came to mind… it’s a generalised sweeping comment about women being on drugs/anti depressants because the pharma companies promote this!
But many do take on more holistic choices.

And it’s not just females, males too!
I remember when first pregnant (which I miscarriaged) the male doctor I had, ended up being dismissed as he was on a cocktail of drugs of all sorts! Idiot! All that education and having a thriving medical practice!

And, joyful freedom thingy…. In Italy, men married late, to women 10 years or more younger so what I saw in later years, the men became old or unwell and the young wives looked after them.

When men retire, the women don’t.
We still cook, clean, do bills, run errands. That stuff never ends.

Yeah nah - not in this household.

I cook on occasion, I vacuum on occasion, I clean certain stuff on occasion, I pay all the bills because my wife is not computer literate, I often put the washing on and hang it out, I do all the errand running & the shopping.

I said to a bloke I know whilst in the supermarket the other day -- a womans work is never done ey? Grin

Don't you just love my toxic masculinity? Wink

I do almost all, like 98% of the house and yard work, my wife has had chronic pain and been on disability for quite a few years now after hurting herself at work(nursing). My misogyny and toxic masculinity look after pretty much everything, house, bills, money. If it wasn't for my toxic masculinity and misogyny I don't know where we would be.

Quote:

We show that lower-skilled players were more hostile towards a female-voiced teammate, especially when performing poorly.
In contrast, lower-skilled players behaved submissively towards a male-voiced player in the identical scenario.
This difference in gender-directed behaviour became more extreme with poorer focal-player performance.
We suggest that low-status males increase female-directed hostility to minimize the loss of status as a consequence of hierarchical reconfiguration resulting from the entrance of a woman into the competitive arena.
Higher-skilled players, in contrast, were more positive towards a female relative to a male teammate.

No one goes into a servo to pay for fuel having no cash nor knowing whether they have funds in their card account.

There’s always the doubt about that there too. I did think it. But daughter did see her card decline, not enough funds.
Even at supermarkets sometimes people have overspent and can’t pay so stuff needs to be taken out.
