The only chicks getting knocked up are the latinas, many of them illegal and underage.

All good advice. I would also add, “Look for a woman who believes that marriage is between one man and one woman for life.” Easy divorces is what started the mess that we’re in today.

In addition to skull and body measurements, Phillip also blames his incel status on porn, which he says he discovered at a young age. About three years ago, when he started falling deeper into incel internet forums, Phillip started needing more extreme content to masturbate to. He says he does it about five times per day.

This "Phillip" needs to go to confession if he is Catholic. He needs to talk with a good Priest. He has one foot in Hell and the other on a banana peel but God is merciful and heals. And when he lives a life of grace he will attract good women.

soooo many things wrong.

1st nearly everyone is fat as hell and no one wants to date THAT!

2nd young people don’t know how to DATE, they don’t have the slightest idea of how to flirt. And it take a LOT of practice to get good at it.

3rd people are waiting TOO LONG! you dont wait until your nearly 30 to “start looking”. In most cases, your best years are already behind you, sorry to say!

4th put down your damn phones! interacting takes eye contact and focus.

5th forget the apps! just GO OUT ! anywhere!! it’s not that freaking hard once you learn to meet people!

what is say is true, but what is also true is most girls today are GROSSLY obese!!

I can almost understand why so many poor boys think they are gay because they are not attracted to any of the cows they know.

Leaving sex aside for the moment, maybe those hairdos and tattoos play a role in social alienation.

…when it comes to finding love, but it’s hard to look at mine and conclude that we don’t have a good case. Never before have young people been having so little sex—

Well, first of all Suzy, you need to learn the difference between love and sex. There is a difference. The best scenario is when the two are combined, but they simply aren’t the same thing.

Avoid dating apps and the hook-up culture and try to meet people in more genuine settings such as church groups, charity volunteer groups, book clubs and the like.

“But when it came to meeting up in person, Phillip couldn’t bring himself to initiate it. “I chickened out,” he said.“

This is the reason nothing works for most of these people, fear and their giving into it.

One of those men is Shane. Shane, 20, is a junior at Penn State studying economics. He comes from a happy family and says he’s never had trouble making friends. And yet he can’t seem to bring himself to create profiles on the dating apps he downloaded months ago. That’s because he’s never had sex.

This author is part of the problem she claims exists.

The kid is only 20 years old. He went from his parents sensible and moral supervision (ie. happy family) into college 2 years ago - why must he be considered abnormal for not having had sex???

Remember that yesterday’s Gospel spoke not only of the prodigal son,but of the merciful father.

Get off social media, and go out and DO things..

Talk to people, actually TALK... not text.. and not about Politics or Religion...

Don’t want to be lonely? Do things and talk to people... Something that folks used to generally do naturally and learn to do just by living are now counter the normal experience as folks isolate more and more (and has nothing to do with the pandemic).

I will say a generation or more now raised with instant gratification and entertainment at their fingertips since birth are ill prepared to deal with the “real world”...

The real world has pauses... don’t grab your phone when one happens.... sit, observe, listen, engage... LEARN TO BE BORED.... Its okay to actually just be... not have stimuli... not be grossly engaged in something... Just BE....

Porn has been around for eons, a lot of men don't meet physical standards or are not multimillionaires known as the “incel” where men who do meet the physical standards or multimillionaires just don't respect modern day females “who give it up quite easily” and has ridden the cock carousel far too many times.
Traditional wives are not that traditional too, many think they do not have to being anything to a relationship except a warm wet hole.

Men want “submissiveness’ such as cooking, cleaning, child rearing, erc... while they work, not a competing partner. That ship has long sailed away once females as a whole became career oriented. Not new, Greek city-States and the Roman Empire experienced the current trend as well. Birth rates and the family structure deteriorated. What society wants, society gets, these articles of comical since everything nowadays is just pleasing synapses instead of self-sacrifice. And the biggest reason, no fault divorce. Why build a family when some chick gets bored because you work all day/reports at night and decides to divorce rape you?

Porn is the least of the problem.

Some may use their real name on other kinds of sites, mostly places I never go to.
Tik Tok, Facebook, Instagram, Dating Sites, Gaming Sites.

Those who are 30 years old and under may never have been taught about the value and sanctity of one’s private name or private identity. For some of these kids, there is no difference between the two spheres of communication.

Private family discussions are being Live Streamed for more ‘likes’ or monetized ‘clicks’. Often w/o the rest of the family even knowing it’s happening. They usually don’t worry about getting any Signed Release from people caught on their video. That very concept may be unknown to most of them.

Do at least 4 years as a military officer.

It turned my life around...amazing what positions of responsibility will do for one's self confidence.

When I got back to the States after 4 years in Germany, my hard ass uncle basically said: I always thought you were just another kid, but you're a man now!

lol, it did create problems during my civilian careers, though. I didn't put up with fools or bullies in the workplace.

Want to meet someone nice? Join a church or you might try a book club or a walking/hiking group

America's crap media, which is controlled by government social-engineers, leftists and corporations, pretend half of America doesn't exist.

Lots of my kids' friends are conservative, Christian, traditionalist. That's exactly how they do it - they meet others through church groups, sports activities, classmates, or family friends. They do NOT put themselves out on social media like cheap meat on sale.

You would never know that if you follow "accepted" media
