A just-released report from the Pew Research Center sends a dagger straight through the heart of a popular mythology—the one that insists that what single people want, more than anything else, is to become coupled. So untrue. The findings, based on a national, random sampling of nearly 5,000 adults in the U.S., showed that 50 percent of single people are not interested in a committed romantic relationship and they are not even interested in a date.
Another 10 percent want nothing more than casual dates. About a quarter of single people, 26 percent, would be interested in casual dates or a committed romantic relationship. Just 14 percent are looking only for a serious romantic relationship.

In my personal observations, way more chicks are sluts now.
Who the hell would want to date a female who identifies as a “whatever”, constant goal post changing, etc. Maybe this is a good thing, less libs procreating:)
“Half of Singles Don’t Want a Relationship or Even a Date”
Me neither.
So how about a quickie?
Doesn’t help when they see the mess that Jerry Falwell is in because he couldn’t stand being with one woman. There are tons of others.
A relationship means there is conversation. Many young people are incapable of that in this texting/ internet world.
I for one enjoy my career; some of my friends who are married with children giving up their career aren’t too happy but manage.
This was my first thought also but your way of expressing it is far more clever.
Then one day they’ll wake up at the age of 40 wondering why all the good ones seem to be taken?
Hence online porn.
