According to the Atlantic, where I go for all my erotic 411, millennials lost the sexual revolution and they didn’t even fight in it. Why Are Young People Having So Little Sex?, it asks in its latest cover story. Sheesh, just look at them.
I guess what they desperately need is some advice from a retired Army guy in his 50s, because this retired Army guy in his 50s has demonstrated that he gets it done while those goofs half his age are swiping left toward eterna-celibacy.
Now, the fact that millennials are failing to reproduce would superficially seem like a good thing, but it is probably a bad thing for society when the younger generation is more interested in Instagram and Fortnite and endless adolescence than in doing the hard work of making babies and, you know, perpetuating the species.
Probably.
Wait, is this a political column? Is this topic political? Oh yeah. There’s a huge political component. Dems are always talking about demographics, but we Normals can take the initiative by doing what comes naturally while the future liberal elites are still trying to figure out each other’s pronouns. The Democrat Party is giving up on reproduction – it doesn’t help that they seem to be suspicious that anyone who actually carries a baby to term is sufficiently liberal. That’s why they want to import caravans of foreigners, to replace their dwindling voter base.
But why is it dwindling? Aren’t liberals supposed to be sexy and liberated? Well, it’s been a while since I dated one, but no. They are whiny, not sexy. They are the Ben Sasse of sexiness.
There are a lot of other causes for the millennial sex drought besides that last, terrifying image. Romance used to be fun and now it is fraught. Look at the sexual fascism sweeping the schools and workplaces where millennials dwell in which normal male/female interaction is labeled “sexual harassment” by the aspiring erotic Carrie Nations of the Progressive Junior Anti-Sex League who compete to turn even the most innocent flirtation into a hate crime.
Get this, from the Atlantic piece: “According to a November 2017 Economist/YouGov poll, 17 percent of Americans ages 18 to 29 now believe that a man inviting a woman out for a drink ‘always’ or ‘usually’ constitutes sexual harassment.” Well, that’s 17% of the population that self-selects out as too stupid to ever be loved.
There is also the issue of political selection. It turns out leftists’ big question in sizing up a potential mate is, “Does this person like the bad orange man?” A “no” to that question screens out the potent/fertile folks. Conservatives’ big question is, “Is this person an idiot?” Sadly, that kind of high bar is going to do a lot of disqualifying too.
And then there is the curse of screens. Technology is the root of all evil and most loneliness. Look, if you are staring at your iPhone all the time and texting people who are literally sitting at the restaurant table with you (Well, congratulations for at least leaving your mom’s basement – that’s something) then you are never going to graduate to the more advanced modes of interpersonal interaction.
Technology also means pornography, the seedy foundation of the internet. Onanism runs rampant among the young, apparently because it’s a lot more convenient than actually having human relationships. It’s not exactly conducive to reproduction.
Now, we all have friends who met their significant others on the dating sites, but the statistics are daunting. Unless you are a god or goddess, or whatever a gender-unspecified deity is called, then your chances of a match are ridiculously slim. Guys have to send out 100 whatever-you-call-thems – messages or swipes or whatever – to get one response. In contrast, women get bombarded with selfies, and not the nice kind.
It seems that, along the way, no one taught a lot of younger men that the way to a woman’s heart is not through a photo of your little friend. What the hell are people thinking?
So, let me offer some suggestions to you that might assist you in breaking the insidious cycle of celibacy.
Put away your stupid iPhones and computers. Yes, I know I'm on Twitter all the time and I'm writing all the time on my computer, but I have a freaking wife, and she's not made of electrons. She's Cuban, so she's made of fire and viciousness.
Just get off the electronics. Talk to people. Try it. Yes, if you say “Hi, my name is Kaden. Would you like a drink?” at least 17% of the recipients of this polite inquiry will blow their rape whistles and preemptively wet themselves. But this gives you important information – that person is an idiot. Go talk to the next one.
And go to friends’ weddings, if they beat the odds. You have to try not to meet someone at a wedding.
But do something. You owe it to conservatism, if not the species itself, to marry and reproduce. If you stay in mom’s basement dating Pornhub, how will you ever mate and bear the strong young children we need to grow up and bear arms to carry on the fight against evil foreigners and domestic lunatics who want to nuke us into submission to leftist tyranny?
Normal people, who I write about in my new book Militant Normals: How Regular Americans Are Rebelling Against the Elite to Reclaim Our Democracy, seem to be doing OK. They breed. In fact, if current trends continue, only Normal people will be left in a couple of generations.
Hmmmmmm.
Okay, I'll take back everything I said before. Liberal millennials, don't change a thing.
Probably the thing that broke my heart most to hear in a lifetime was to hear my son in his late 30s say “I’m glad I don’t have children.” The name we share ends with him. A name our family proudly sent to War every time called upon all the way back to 1776 and before. I didn’t have the stomach to comment. I have been here, shoulder to shoulder with freepers for decades fighting the good fight but now I have to ask, “For what?”
millennials don’t have sex because smart phones don’t have genitals.

yet.
So long as he’s breathing and healthy he can still father children. The whole thing has gotten so bizarre that I’m expecting something of a conservative baby boom with the express intent of countering where this is all headed with no intervention.

many have discovered RealDoll male and female ...
“...what I see is young women defacing themselves with unflattering half-buzzcuts and day-glow hair dye, while wearing slob clothes...”
All those can be undone, but tatoos on young women are a real & permanent defacement of the female body. On vacay I used to enjoy walking the beach & check out bikini girls. Nowadays most of them have hideous tats on their thighs, midriffs, shoulders, etc. It’s a real turnoff.
Then I go back to my wife who has had several major operations. Her surgical scars don’t disfigure; rather they are evidence that God wants her to go on being my beloved spouse. Totally different.
Tucker is correct. We have sent our country careening off the rails. There is a generation of promiscuous females who will never be good mothers and a generation of males like my son who will have to search for a mate among 20 year olds. He would like to be a father and loves kids but every female he meets is pretty badly damaged in his age group. He keeps trying but what are the prospects when dating a 35 year old female who has been divorced twice and has a couple of teenaged kids? And we thought China was going to have problems with it’s “one child” policy. We have allowed a much worse condition to evolve and we aren’t even able to speak of the problem without being shouted down as misogynists or worse.
The “males” seem to be mainly wispy little faggots, and the females all seem to be obese and bitchy. 20% of the males are able to have sex with 80% of the females. Pop culture/Hollywood has wrecked our society, possibly by design. The generation of males coming after the millenials is probably going to rebel against this Clown World in a really ugly way.
AMEN TO THAT! I'd hate to be out in the modern day dating world.
Sorry, I really think it has to do with Millennials wanting to wait for the right person and settle down.
Desperately looking for random gutter trash in smoky bars? That went out in the 90’s, back when typing away on a computer was still “nerdy”.
I applaud this. Welcome to the future.
He’s got to look in another culture that has thus far not been so degraded, one that values motherhood and children. That sets feminists off, even here on FR, but it’s true. Women of childbearing age in the United States are largely ruined as far as any semblance of traditional marriage and motherhood. Time for some fresh blood, different X chromosomes. Let them die childless, it’s what they think they want.
Whoa...I has an over/under of 10 paragraphs before mention of the book. He showed great restraint.
No, that's what college is for.
Can you blame him?
Liberalism in the young does not necessarily mean all that the posted article implies. We have five adult children. Sadly, all five are to the left of us politically. However, all five are productive and responsible economically; all five are married or about to be married; and all five either have or are hoping to have children.
:: Onanism runs rampant among the young, apparently because it’s a lot more convenient than actually having human relationships. ::
And, leads to even more questions about orange-colored skin (if you eat Cheetos while watching porn...)
I’ve thought for years that one of the purposes of women’s studies programs was to turn young women off to male companionship. If college girls won’t date guys and guys are intimidated into not dating girls because of potential harassment and rape charges, that puts a whole lot more cute, horny college girls in the market for sexual relationships, and who better to fill that need than old lesbian women’s study professor. The best way to sell an unwanted product is to manufacture a market and a need.
The good news is taht that means fewer baby liberals. But overall, this is probably not good for the country.
Open acceptance of gayness as genetic and righteous. Gender fluidity. The over use of drugs . The objectification of sex as separate from procreation. The abandonment of God. Feminism. The #metoo movement. Global warming and population control. The attack on “the patriarchy”. The destruction of marriage and the family.
Are we really surprised 20 year olds take viagra to masturbate and fear actual contact with women?
Even without getting married, they managed to not have sex. I’m impressed.
