The bump in self-reported levels of BLTQXYZ sexual dysfunctions is probably an indicator, especially for the women.

On my optimistic days, I think the pendulum may begin to swing back. A significant number of young people (of both sexes) seem to be pulling back from a toxic dating culture.

Among the women particularly, I suspect that the bump in reported bi- and lesbian orientation reflects a good many young women who are sick of the predators and the expectation that they will participate in the hookup culture.

Lo and behold, not all young women want to be sluts, and if that’s the expectation they are encountering from many of the young men they meet in today’s meat markets, at least some of them will opt out, at least for a time.

I don’t think it works the same way for men. There are enough drunken sluts out there that the young creeps can get laid. Women have always been the gatekeepers. And at least some of them are rediscovering ancient truths.
