That's an impressive drop. Any ideas why?

Perhaps there is a comfort in expressing these beliefs now when before there was not?
That is what I thought I said, yes.

People are just not very attractive nowadays
I blame the GenZ broccoli haircut.

It could be the aging population. If 100% of people 20-40 have sex and 0% of 40-60 then that's 50% if both groups are equally strong.
Now if it's 1/3 and 2/3 then it's only 33%.

Besides plenty of other reasons people mentioned, Gen Z in particular is pretty antisocial. I've seen them hang out at bars, they might get one drink and just stare at their phone. Just anecdotal, but from what I've gathered it definitely feels like those type of folk either don't know how to have fun or are averse to it. I don't mean that in a completely negative way, either. I think covid really made a lot of people in general more socially inept. Again, I don't mean that to denegrate and I've definitely felt that a bit myself.

COVID had a huge impact, but in general things seem pretty much the same as when I was in school in the 90's/early aughts, except they're on smartphones instead of Nokias. They just seem normal to me.

Although I feel sorry for you and your situation, I honestly wonder, how someone can jerk off in the office...
Home office!!!

Like a short was really your choice. You'd love to go long, if you could.
I just find the concept hilarious. Borrow some expensive... sex... to then immediately sell it... then regularly pay lender with small amount of sex as a fee for the sex loan... then when the time is right buy some cheap sex, return sex to lender... and that's how one gets sex when sex is in decline.

Women are avoiding men. For all sorts of reasons that I think most of you are aware of. It's a huge turn off to be with someone who thing you are lower than them. Who thinks you don't deserve basic human rights.
It's a huge mood killer.
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 realize not every sex encounter is a man and woman. But most of the population is hetero.
I don't know... While this certainly has made a comeback in the last couple of years (thanks to rise of fucking Nazi shits all over the world), there has been a positive development.
I actually believe it has more to do with the ever increasing "efficiency" at work and addictive media (YouTube, social media, Netflix, etc.). People just don't have time for sex anymore, because there are quicker ways to get your dopamine fixed. This is also why people don't go out and socialize anymore. Social media is actually very antisocial.

Nah, a lot of them are useless. I see it at work. Many of them are incapable of making a quick phone call when they need something. They just don't understand that people prioritize answers for people they actually know. You don't get to know people via texting.

Sex in an unaffordable luxury and a deadly liability, I'm surprised it is still that high, I imagine those are people who didn't stop to think about the wild and unnecessary risk they're taking and how they'll regret it functionally forever.
Just use condoms? The fuck are you even talking about?

I don't see the point, might as well not sex at all than do it in a rubber.

Are you basing this on dating app matches? It might be a case of survivor bias
To elaborate, what's possibly happening is that only the assholes of society are the ones having a disproportionate level of exposure/influence on these apps because the good ones cycle out of it quickly enough when they find their viable partners. And then these assholes, who in fact represent a minority of the actual population, end up staining everyone else's opinions by making them think these people are the majority of peoples' behaviours.
