[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Really interesting takes on boys and technology. I think he’s right about a lot but off on some things but I think his ideas are worth discussing. Are we failing boy? Have we put girls ahead of boys or have women just put their heads down and figured it out?

Excerpt:

“ …his stats tell a worrying story. In 1950, 50 per cent of men under 30 had children; now it’s 21 per cent (and 60 per cent of young men aged 18-24 still live with their parents). The downstream effects are startling: 1 in 3 men under 30 hasn’t had sex in the past year; 45 per cent of men aged 18-25 have never approached a woman in person (as opposed to online) to ask them on a date.

“No cohort has fallen further, faster than young men,” he asserts. “You ask me about the [Tommy Robinson] march in London? History shows us fascism breeds among sad, lonely, badly educated males who are most susceptible to conspiracy theories. Trump got elected because we have a young man problem. And you want to know why his vote went up among women over 45? I believe they are concerned mothers.”

“It begins with education. Boys’ slower brain development (the male prefrontal cortex matures later than in girls) means they quickly fall behind girls at school. What’s more, higher education is now prohibitively expensive, while manual jobs have disappeared due to globalisation and AI. Even for those working, inflation has devalued wages and housing is increasingly unaffordable.

The social contract is broken,” he says. “The promise that working hard and following the rules means your life will be better than for previous generations is gone. In that landscape of despair, the temptations offered by godlike technology, porn, gambling and conspiracy theories can be irresistible.”

Isn't it the same what Charlie Kirk said? I think that is why he got a lot of followers among the young man because he pushed the narrative that it is a happy life if you marry young, have kids, raise family. The social contract is not broken. Young men still have the same choice. The problem is that a lot of them were raised believing that marriage and family is a bad thing. And now they are lost.

I think young women see marriage and kids as high risk/high reward. [/quote]

I think young women know that they don't need a man unless it is to be an equal partnership. [/quote]

Are you a bot? You fail to understand biology and emotion. Finding a late 20s straight woman who doesn't want a man and child is rare af. You know the human condition didn't change in the last 20 years, right?[/quote]
Wow you are so out of touch. These women are NOT rare, they are the overwhelming majority. JFC do you ever go out in the real world or leave your moms basement?[/quote]

[b]I'm a 56 yo married man with three, grad school educated daughters [/b]that live in large east coast cities. I know more about this than you ever will. You just hate men because they find you repulsive.[/quote]

sure you are  :roll:  :roll:  :roll:  :roll:  :roll: [/quote]

I am and you know it. Your only move is to call me a liar because the truth hurts.[/quote]

hahaha what truth? Our resident MAGA misogynists always like to spew their hate and call it "the truth." Nah, dude. It's just your ignorant opinion.

And yes, you are 100% lying. [/quote]
Even if he isn't a troll (which I'm not sure), there is no way I'd take an almost senior citizen mans opinion on young womens wants and desires. "I know more about this than you ever will" - I love it when a man has to mansplain womanhood to other women. So delusional. [/quote]

Says the fat single lady  :lol:  :lol:  :lol: [/quote]
