  Women are avoiding men. For all sorts of reasons that I think most of you are aware of.

  Women also are feeling like they have the ability to refuse when before they didn’t.

  Women are also scared of pregnancy in a way they haven’t been since the fecking 1900s.

  Because now, you get pregnant. A doctor will let you die before they will provide medical care if that medical care has any chance of harming a fetus. Even if the fetus is dead.

  Women are dying from pregnancy. Women are no longer able to terminate an early pregnancy safely.

  Women are scared.

      I mean what? Women will just resign themselves to being femcels forever?

      That sounds depressing, even more than being resigned to being a male incel

    trend was before any new abortion bans. You probably cannot consider men avoiding women, but that is likely a larger overall factor.

  That’s some b.s rfk was saying. That’s not the cause. Dysfunction is not the same as low sex drive. It can mean any number of things.

  11.4% take anti depressants and between 40-65% experience some degree of sexual dysfunction so even using the highest numbers and assuming that the sexual dysfunction completely eliminates interest in sex (it doesn’t) that would only be 7.41%

  I’m also going to think the absinence-only education plays a role. I know people in their 20s today who didn’t understand: lube, protection, HIV, pregnancy. Some of them were HIV+ before they knew what happened. People are confused and uneducated. Thanks Christians!
