Well, I had my 18th birthday in 1994 and I put everyone off since then.

Ever heard about STD rates in nursing homes? There may be a factor that's correlated with age, but age itself doesn't stop sex, or even slow it down that much.
I'm not saying people don't have sex as they get older (though there is ample evidence out there that they tend to have less). I'm saying that women are less likely to put up with a broke ass older man than a young stud. As you get older you become more prized as a breadwinner than you do as just a toy boy.

Do you count more if you have sex 3 to 4 times a week?

Just keep working on yourself friend. Only way things don't work out in the long run is if you stop trying
Blues Traveler song I love has a very similar line; "There's no such thing as a failure who keeps trying. Coasting to the bottom is the only mistake.". I heard it at a young age, when I absolutely needed to hear it. I have done my best to teach my children and close friends this. You can do it. What "it" is may change in the effort... But if you keep trying, you will never be a failure.

I find computers endlessly fascinating and they are easier to understand than social interactions. If you took away easier forms of entertainment I would be seeking harder forms of entertainment. Probably also starting a revolution.

I have a really high sex drive and I've never been in a relationship where I consistently got it often enough to be satisfied so I stopped trying. It also doesn't help that my living situation is not conducive to bringing people home with me.
I've also never been in a relationship that totally satisfied my sex drive, so I feel this a lot. My fiance used to be very sexual like me, but then she went on antidepressants and that was kinda killed. Now, she's off then again, but her sex drive never rebounded, even though she thinks I'm more attractive now that I've been working out and gained muscle. Just sad to be jerking off in the office or bathroom every day instead of being intimate with someone you love because they don't want to have sex with you 🫤
I don't blame her or anything, it just hurts my soul a bit. Her sex drive is so low now that I feel guilty and anxious even asking, because I know she'll either reject it outright or just tolerate it if she really wants to make me happy that day, which kills it for me.
I'd say we only really have sex where we're both equally enjoying it maybe once every few weeks to once a month. If her drive were the same as mine, that would be once or twice a day. Just a shitty situation for me.

Spousal Rape Laws started getting enforced finally.

Yeah, I'm single now and intend to stay that way but I don't blame my exes or hold it against women as a whole. It's just a fact of life. It has bothered me enough to end relationships over it but it was just about the incompatibility not any malice towards them. I'd much rather just hang out as friends and not have that "is she going to be in the mood or not?" question running in my head the whole time or feeling shitty if I make a move and get shot down, or worry that they're feeling like I'm trying to pressure them into something. It just creates a bad situation and stresses me out because it's not like I can just turn it off. I've tried jacking off but my shit recovers too fast when I'm around a woman that I like for that to help.

It says 1990 not 1900!

So we're gonna see it go back up?

Monogamist problems.

The best answer is how anti depressants which at least 20% of those in the USA take ---- depresses the sex drive for both males and females.
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%

Yes. Put it all on options.

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.

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.

It's a huge mood killer.

*I realize not every sex encounter is a man and woman. But most of the population is hetero.

Can I also add in stress and other environmental factors?

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.
