Young people are herd animals. Most of them will do whatever they “must” to fit in, very few will think for themselves.

At the same time, I think there’s a subset of this (primarily among women) that do it because they can’t get a partner, and can’t admit that it’s likely their own fault.

I agree on the herd mentality of young folks. What's bizarre is they're told over and over that thinking like the rest of the clan is "learning to think for yourself". Thus, acting on herd mentality seems self-empowering when you're brainwashed into believing that the herd mentality is a kind of "individualness".
