I am Gen Z. Men in my generation are not dating. Why should we?

Across America, marriage, sexuality, and relationships are steadily declining among young people. According to a new Pew Research survey, 63% of men aged 18-29 report being single. This means that there are almost twice as many young single men as young single women, indicating a major disruption to the social, romantic, and sexual lives of American men. The big questions are: why?

While some may think it’s easier than ever to make romantic connections in our digital world, it’s actually the opposite. Our culture of convenience paradoxically makes dating more difficult for men because we are forced into a highly competitive, superficial environment that emphasizes immediate gratification over genuine relationships. There are a number of possible culprits that are causing this relationship breakdown, but none have done more damage to the dating landscape than dating apps, social media and porn.

Start with dating apps. The emergence of dating sites began with his Match.com in 1995, followed by the 2012 releases of Tinder and Hinge, and the 2014 release of Bumble, which evolved into the swipe-based platforms we know today.

Kelly Clarkson says divorce ‘rips you apart’ when marriage ‘doesn’t work’ after ‘years’ of trying

A survey of 6,034 adults found that 53% of adults between the ages of 18 and 29 found a date through an app or site. But the U.S. marriage rate hit an all-time low in her 2019, according to new Census data. Only 33 out of 1,000 unmarried adults were married. This number was 86% in 1970, compared to 35 in 2010, ten years before her.

The convenience of technology has made it easier for men to date, but this technology has created a counterintuitive situation that has led to a more capricious attitude towards relationships, rather than committing to one person. I am always looking for the following.

With the abundance of dating app options, young men find it difficult to form a deeper connection with one person due to the feeling of constant availability. When a red flag appears, why stick around and work it out when you have thousands of other options at your fingertips? , favors the latter. How can you blame them for the constant programming from social media?

On social media today, men can scroll through their feeds and popular pages to see more beautiful women at once than most men 100 years ago saw in their lifetimes.

Social media races for the attention of those who lead women to commoditize themselves. On social media, people are only encouraged to do their best (even if it’s fake!). With advances in facial recognition technology, men are often looking at women through filtered, airbrushed lenses.

While women benefit from online attention, men wonder how the dating pool has become so unreachable. As a result, the same women who market themselves as what they are not are left without their partners wondering where all the good men have gone. Instead of accepting partnerships, you are conditioned to treat yourself as a number.

Maybe I’m behind the times, but for me, face-to-face flirting leaves a bigger impression on relationship possibilities than responding to a girl’s Instagram story with a flame emoji. The constant culture of comparisons fostered by social media, coupled with the barrage of women on social media, makes it difficult for men to commit and settle into relationships. Even the biggest source of motivation for addiction is captured in porn.

Desire, which is carnal in nature, is arguably the most powerful motivator that drives men when it comes to dating. Ultimately, desire may fade, but the emotional connection built on that initial feeling of attraction can determine the success of a relationship.

But pornography completely destroys this dynamic. It turns the male reward system into something simply carnal and physical, but lacks the emotional connection necessary for a healthy relationship. Today porn is easier to consume than ever before. 40 million US adults visit porn websites regularly, and 10% of US adults admit to relying on the internet for her porn.

Research shows that about 67% of 13-year-old boys have seen at least one pornographic image on some digital device in the past year, and that number rises to 90% by age 18.

In porn, finding a “relationship” is easy. When it comes to porn, this digital partner has nothing to do but wait and please you and give you exactly what you want. If this partner is not pleasing you, you are just one click away from replacing it. Why waste time dating, flirting and trying when men can satisfy their deepest sexual desires online is it?

Today, men in their 20s are more likely to be romantically uninvolved, sexually dormant, and friendless than women. single men may be less invested in building strong social networks. , leading to isolation and lack of involvement in the community.

Simply put, the breakdown of relationships between men and women is alarming and detrimental to a healthy society. Quit dating apps, stop watching porn and go talk to girls in real life.
