zero female sex partners
Well that's a meaningless study then
"Young male virgins" equals "men under age 30 who report zero female sex partners since they turned 18"?
Good thing no male has sex before 18 or with anyone who isn't female.
It's confirmed.
The Bourne Ultimatum turned men gay.
Right, like what's the point in excluding this data? I guess it's probably safe to assume if you had sex under 18 you probably have had sex after 18 but still odd that it's like that.
That’s when social media started earnestly taking a foothold. I am guessing maybe this has to do with depressed females (there are studies which indicate social media use affects females more and also depresses them). Depressed females likely have different preferences and standards than those who are not, perhaps. If you don’t like yourself, you’re unlikely to pursue and welcome relationships.
Alternatively, that was the time of the Great Recession. Perhaps some young adults in general are too economically stressed to do normal activities?
ugh i hate the word "females". why not just say "women"
Because the study is clearly talking about goats. You only use the word "women" when you're talking about humans.
In the context of this discussion, the chart title is "young male virginity on the rise", so it doesn't seem too far off the mark.
Yeah male virginity. Male is an adjective in this case.
Male or especially Female as a noun, has a very weird ring to it. Sounds kinda disrespectful, as said above, like your talk about cattle…
This is also around the time smartphones came out. Wait, were the boomers right?
Pornhub was launched on 25 May 2007. Just saying...
Well broken clock, etc. etc.
Also, social media is a major contributor to the isolation epidemic going on, as is the economic situation and the work culture of countries like the US.
So what I'm saying is, you're probably right on all accounts.
I saw a great video once that went into how the economic situation is largely responsible for the cultural shift from "adult" as a thing you are to "adulting" - a thing you do. That from Millenials onwards, generations don't feel economically secure enough to partake in traditional cultural norms of middle-class adulthood. Things like buying a house and popping out 2.5 kids.
In 2008 Sasha Grey won Performer of the Year award.
I am not going to figure out/imagine how many years ago was that, nope, no way, I know better.
Housing crash fucked everyone for generations.
Mass adoption of cellphones, social media, streaming services and the destruction of third spaces. Endless entertainment, decreased socialization.
People have been fucking while living with their parents for most of humanity. That's not the problem, at least in terms of first experiences.
When most people have to worry about their rent & food everyday of their life while working for ludicrous amounts of time every week, having a family or relationships in general just look like more expenses for the individual. It's not an issue only men face either.
Emphasis on "female".
Also the year Persona 4 came out.
men under 30 who report zero female sex partners since turning 18
Okay, but what about male partners?
Also, can we clarify whether we're defining "sex" as "sexual contact" versus "penial vaginal intercourse"? Because I think ex-President Clinton is still a virgin under the second definition.
I'm pretty sure ex-President Clinton has a daughter who looks very similar to him.
Jesus Christ that's Jason Bourne !
I mean, I guess millennials were right in the middle period between having a healthy sex life prior to 18 and then various life clusterfucks hit the generation. I can only assume ppl gave up, secluded, moisturised, in their lane, flourishing in their shituation as best they can.
How would that make them virgins? They could e8tger be gay, 9r have had sex before being 18.
If you don't fuck for 12 years, your virginity grows back.
What was op cookin
I bet young people today are more honest.
See that peak a little while after 1989?
I lost my virginity in 1993.
😎
Looks like I'm finally better than the majority at something!
sniffle
What if you're 38? Asking for a friend.
If your friend can hold it for 2 more years then they can get a movie made about them.
So Jason Bourne turned everyone gay?
Even in the late 1900s that number is still way higher than I thought it would be.
"late 1900s" is something I'm not sure I'll ever get used to hearing.
I never know if 1900s means 1900-1909 or 1900-1999.
Fuck Putin. Wait, not THAT.
