The many reasons why people are having less sex

Contrary to what you’ll see in tv shows & movies, developed nations are having less sex. Nothing new to this forum but the possible reasons are linked to porn, social media, more hours worked, and as PA notably pointed out, unhappiness.

This has been a well documented problem in Japan for a while now. Young adults would rather play video games than procreate.

Just wait until virtual reality becomes awesome. That’s really going to tip the scales.

And on the other hand…

More propaganda from the No Fap army. Sad! (?)

I’m waiting for the day when we can we can have virtual reality sex. Kinda like Total Recall meets Brazzers.

I was hoping PA would chime in w his normal rhetoric that the unhappiness is stemming from the demasculinization of men and the feminist movement of women. On the latter, women feel sexy when they are desired and men gain libido from power. As both fade, so goes the appetite.

no testosterone, no libido, no sex. globe is full of lady boys.

there are many ways to have sex. if you have to rely on physical touch to reach sexual climax you’re doing something wrong :-1:

Depression is the cause and antidepressants reduce a libido.

And not getting laid causes depression. What a vicious cycle.

?

Morpheus, hook me up to that matrix!

Palantir knows all the phone s3x operators by name.

I commend you on owning your premature ejaculation.

This is actually a dangerous path as physical touch and sexual contact provide the essentials to the creation of life.

Dr. Norman Doidge provides a good write up on neuroplasticity, porn, and how this new environment has affected our body and brain function.

in my experience most women can reach climax by hearing a ribald tale that challenges decorum :sunglasses:

This is somewhat surprising because thanks to Tinder and Bumble, I was thinking the exact opposite phenomenon might be happening

^ top 5% bang 95% of the time on these apps. Everyone is holding out for better without being self aware enough to lower their standards. A lot of the population is unfcukable anyway…those are the ones responding to these surveys. The other ones are bangin. We’re a lot more exposed to the creme of the crop these days - a lot more than ever before in history. You couldn’t whip out your phone any swipe through a city’s population worth of people to find someone to bang…you’d bang Martha next door because she’s there and she’s down.

There is also a disconnect of wants between the sexes. Most women do want relationships (or more commitment) and dudes just want to hook up. Millennial are having less sex because, to be honest, it’s not very appealing with the way its portrayed in media. Think of all the movies where the sex is crap, someone gets an std or pregnant and all the chaos that ensues. I’m sure it has a psychological effect on the desire to have sex, especially coupled with the lack of education on how to actually enjoy the act itself.

Put your phone down, learn to talk to people and be present. Learn to flirt, enjoy yourself, show interest and you’d be surprised how much sex you can get (if that’s what you want of course).

If you read my book 20/80, you wouldn’t be surprised. It’s no different than globalization, there are definite winners and lots of losers.

I believe the advent of mobile dating is a part of the issue, but not the core issue. The core issue is that as the internet becomes woven into modern life we simply have far more vying for our attention than ever before. Sex becomes too difficult when the there is a world of entertainment a click away.
