No one is taking issue with your retarded fixation on the 2021 percentage gap for 18-25.
Here's why you should care Doc!

1. The right wing is acknowledging the problem and offering solutions to young men. The right wing is effectively radicalizing young men. A progressive commentator urges the Left to talk about the problem and offer solutions.

2. A politician pointed out that the lack of having an intimate relationship causes mental health problems. Watch the same video. I've seen some theories in psychology that are consistent with her claim.

I think single men in their late teens and early 20s are a threat to society. It's very scary that there are so many single men.
Menace to Society the lot of them!!! At least the right-wing can channel that energy into pogroms and putsches, making them a bunch of proud boys.

Of course, there's some evidence that hypergamy is a contributing factor, which means that some men are dating multiple women at the same time. Similar to what Res Ipsa pointed out,

With women making up the majority of students, men can have sex without the investment of time and effort in a committed relationship.
Rep Ipsa's explanation doesn't work that well because there's a 21.5% gap between single men and women ages 26-33.

In other words, only the top guys win.

No idea, but the Left does have to come up with some solutions. Any ideas?

Why do they?

I’m not convinced that a national-level arranged marriage program would be a welcome sort of thing.

If I understand your overall view, DT, then I don't see how there can be a solution.

Forgive me if I misrepresent something, but I believe I recall you discussing at length the needs older guys have for younger girls, it's grounded in evolution, and there's all these reasons why older men (not necessarily old men) want young girls.

There's only so many barely-18 girls out there, DT. If they are the object of guys 18-25 but also the object of guys 25-59, then somebody is going to have to sit this one out. And that's being generous by speaking of young girls as if they are a commodity for satisfying the needs of guys 18-59. We haven't even got to what they might want in life.

The right-wing would tend to have solutions because in patriarchal societies like early Mormonism, you can give the young girls to the old guys and give the young guys BS doctrines that they swallow to helps them lose constructively.

Short of banning the Internet and making people get jobs and interact, people are just going to have to figure out new ways forward for the world to come.

Why do you keep changing the titles to your threads, DT?
