[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was a teen in the late 1990’s/early 2000’s and this doesn’t sound that different from what I experienced.

There were a group of beautiful popular girls everyone wanted to date and most others didn’t really date. Maybe there would 10-20% of the high school who dated outside of these popular kids. Then that left 80% of students who didn’t date in high school.

Many people I knew started dating after they graduated and went to college. [/quote]

OP here.  Interesting.  But did this 80% go to college having never kissed the opposite sex?  Cause this is what I'm talking about.  
Totally fine but not what I experienced (1992 high school grad).  I was not popular per say but there were plenty of guys (even quite attractive ones) that would give 
my friends and I the time of day (from kissing to taking us to prom and on and on. 
Now iI feel like it's 10-20 girls per high school are popular and the rest are ignored.  At least that is what I'm seeing. Sigh.  [/quote]

I was a pretty, sporty girl in the 1990s who didn’t date until college. I was not popular, but always had good friends. Most of my friends didn’t date, either. Only the popular girls did, really.

My son is a perfectly fine looking 16 year old, tall, athletic, funny, lots of friends, and he’s been on one date. I have never heard him say anything unkind about a girl, and the one time I asked him if the girl he likes was pretty he told me that was a objectifying, Boomer thing to ask.

I think you may actually have been one of the popular girls and didn’t know it![/quote]
