Sadly, this article describes most of the guys that I grew up and went to school with. Just about all of them have went without being married, having any children, or being successful at anything other than video games. It’s as if they all had(have) some sort of pathological ‘fear’ of growing up or having any real responsibility.
Tried my best to get some of them to go to college, to no avail. Now I sit back and watch them all suck from a distance.
And I’m sure you’re *such* a prize.
I’d say the biggest reason, aside from the costs of being an independent and mature adult has become so great and the benefits from doing so have become so small that it’s actually more beneficial for many to not go down that path.
Previously, sex was limited to marriage most of the time. Those who wanted to participate in it had to take on the responsibilities that went along with it.
Now sex seems to be readily available because many women are okay with shacking up for a while, porn is easy to get, and anyway, Libs have turned sex into something essentially boring over the longterm, like going jogging. People who had had sex shoved in their faces all their lives, and whose major sexual experiences have been NOT within the confines of a monogamous, person-oriented relationship, simply don’t have the same interest level. Meh.
