Theres a growing prevalence of singledom among Americas rising generation of women.
(LifeSiteNews) A shocking new private poll shared by one of the countrys leading data scientists claims that 30% of American women under 25 identify as homosexual, bisexual, or transgender.
Before looking into the reasons for these numbers, Eric Levitz, in a New York Magazine article about the gender gap between Trump and Biden supporters, calls attention to the continuing rise of singledom a preference for non-married life among young women in the United States:
Neither the societal shift away from traditional gender roles nor the downstream cultural consequences of that shift are anywhere near complete. As Rebecca Traister has incisively argued, the growing prevalence of singledom among Americas rising generation of women is one of the most potent forces in contemporary politics. In 2009, for the first time in history, there were more unmarried women in the United States than married ones.
A large part of the trend away from marriage is attributable to young women rejecting sexual complimentarity and identifying as lesbian, bisexual or a member of the opposite sex, Levitz explains:
And today, young women in the U.S. arent just unprecedentedly single; they also appear to be unprecedentedly uninterested in heterosexuality: According to private polling shared with Intelligencer by Democratic data scientist David Shor, roughly 30 percent of American women under 25 identify as LGBT; for women over 60, that figure is less than 5 percent.
As the poll is limited to women under 25, it doesnt reflect changes to womens sexual preference later on in life, while theyre still able to have kids.
In any case, conservative commentators were astonished at the polls findings.
Whats behind this is primarily cultural. We have become an anti-natalist society, suggests Rod Dreher, writing at The American Conservative. And further, we have become a society that no longer values the natural family.
And now we have 30 percent of Gen Z women claiming to be sexually uninterested in men, Dreher continued. There is nothing remotely normal about that number. It is a sign of a deeply decadent culture that is, a culture that lacks the wherewithal to survive. The most important thing that a generation can do is produce the next generation.
No families, no children, no future, he added.
Andrew Sullivan, a popular mainstream political and societal commentator who identifies as homosexual, isnt buying the stats, which he seems to think are way out of line and suggestive of openness to female sexual fluidity.
Sullivan tweeted, Wild guess: 25 percent bi - meaning female sexual fluidity; 3 percent exclusively lesbian; 1.9 percent trendy trans; 0.1 percent actually trans.
In an update to his article, Rod Dreher, and many of his readers, seemed to have reached the same conclusion as Sullivan: The B in LGBT bisexual is probably doing a hell of a lot of work in that 30 percent number.
While the reported statistics about female sexuality are shocking, the rise of singlehood is by itself cause for great alarm.
Increasing numbers of single people see themselves as a new victim class objects of discrimination by society and government which seem to favor married people and families. The singlehood activists want to level the playing field by steamrolling not only laws and regulations which offer economic benefits for marriage; they would like to see marriage itself tossed in the dustbin of history.
Any way you look at it, the United States has undergone a seismic shift in marriage culture over the past few decades, noted Stella Morabito, a senior editor at The Federalist, in a prescient 2014 commentary.
A small, vocal, and organizing core of singles activists are starting to prod and poke everyone to tell marrieds: check your privilege! continued Morabito. They basically claim that all economic or social benefits for marriage discriminate against singles.
Many singles activists envision a utopian society in which legally isolating every individual expands freedom, observed Morabito. And it might even seem that way for a little while. Some will revel in a perceived New World Orgy of freedom. But the morning after this binge of faux freedom will bring a hangover that doesnt go away.
Morabito warns that the singles movement serves a statist agenda, increasing the role of government in individual lives, while diminishing individual freedom.
Bingo. It is a conformity young women adopt.
Women are not exactly pro gay, they are pro anything that they think they could benefit from. That does not mean however they are willing to engage in any of those particular things.
This article has not understood feminine psychology.
“In essence, youre arguing the absence of observed crime is a testament to the irrationality of laws against crime.”
“absence of observed crime”
So you admit you don’t know what you are talking about.
Does there exists, in the world. a person who thinks that laws against crime are irrational? I never came close to such a stupid utterance. Stop trying to be intellectual. It is beyond your skill set.
Well that makes me sad.
You’re probably right.
But I am a woman and there comes a time when you want to bear children. But maybe I’m old fashioned.
Welcome to FR.
There is definitely something going on. I live in a small, TN town of 1200. 65 kids graduating is a big class. I know three girls who say they are transgender, two starting hormones. They are 2 years out of high school. There’s an increase in girls saying they are non-binary, and a number of boys coming out as gay. It crosses racial lines, and income levels.
Are they just being indoctrinated or is there something in the water? Am I just living in a bubble and that’s why it’s so glaring?
Its the Flavor of the Month among unstable little Snowflakes.
Rare to find a woman who wants children and one who wants more than 1 or two is unicorn rare
Indoctrinated
Watch the movie Agenda - Grinding America Down
we are being attacked from within
schools and the media are their weapons
destroy America’s morality and family, and you have destroyed the Republic
The young have easy access to porn. And porn tells women that being with other women is the norm.
And I’d add many women are self supporting now. So if they don’t want children, can pay there own way, can get emotional fulfillment from other women and sexual fulfillment from said women or their box of electronic toys why do they need a soi boy clinging to them. If they want male companionship to just talk to and hang out with there are plenty of homosexual types at work to fill that role. There is no stigma to any of thus anymore so what’s stopping them. I’m guessing this number is uncomfortably closer to reality than we’d like to admit.
Perhaps you would be kind enough to explain where Luke 17 shows that - I’m not seeing it.
Thanks for the pings and the scary links.
Single is one thing
LBGTQ is entirely anothere.
Just because I live single & have for over 41 years is absolutely NO indication that I am LBGTQ..
How come there isn’t a category for “Non active’ Heterosexual
persons.???
I like men——I just don’t like one well enough to live with him.
This kind of generalization is wtong.
But were at the point where the Left is demanding we teach 5 year olds that men can be women, and women, men, and that XX / XY biology stuff doesnt matter. Because they believe in Science. Or something.
Its mass insanity.”
Which is why so many of our younger relatives pulled their kids out of public schools, bit the financial bullets and sent them to excellent private schools. (Many of which are religious)
My wife and I have supported this by helping to pay for our grand kids and so have relatives on the other parents’s sides.
At first, we supported sending the kids to private schools as a large % of the kids are really good in the STEM courses. We saw a weakening in those studies even while our kids in their 40-50’s with teachers, who shouldn’t have been teaching STEM courses.
Then, when all the WOKE B$ and sexuality classes became the main emphasis in most public schools after the 6-7th grades.
We supported the religious schools for their morality and character stances as well as STEM standards
Somewhere I have a T-shirt:
The front says: “I need a man”
The back says: “LIKE a fish needs a bicycle”.
I live alone & I own all of my property—including my small ranch.
But for those who binge-watch television shows like "Orange Is The New Black", I can see how they might feel differently.
NOT with today’s schools
They just tell him that when he tries to go out with them.
You could be my senator
Well that makes me sad.
You’re probably right.
But I am a woman and there comes a time when you want to bear children. But maybe I’m old fashioned.
