That's an impressive drop. Any ideas why?

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.
What would be your first few steps in starting the revolution?

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.
No anti-depressants here. I'm depressed as shit. Ladies?

Gotta have both a partner and time to have sex ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

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

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.
What? How sheltered are you?

I'd say a larger part of the population being aware that they can reject "unsolicited requests" is a part of it.
Also, it requires meeting people to some extent. That sounds boring.

hmm what? Unless I missed a very big part of this, you're not dropping a percentage of your soul when you have sex, it usually conclude with a good shower, and if you were not cautious at all with protection, a pill.

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.
While I don't disagree with this theory, I wonder why you would think that this is a recent development.
The awareness is relatively recent. "The woman place is in the kitchen" is not an old thing.

It says 1990 not 1900!
You think 1990 where a time of full consent and awareness about other sensitivities? Oh boy.

Do you think we will ever get to the point of "virtual sex" when you can experience something better than the real thing?

Things were definitely different to today, but I think the factors you listed are not enough to explain the massive decline in that graph.
Things like economic insecurity, cost of housing, increasing isolation / changes in living circumstances, and medication are all likely to be significant factors in my opinion.

I was warming up the down vote finger so hard until I saw the /s. Got me good.
Yeah, it's just so sad that it's believable some people genuinely hold that view

You're not doing it right.

World of Warcraft
There's a considerable uptick just before 2010, so WoW players must've been having lots of sex during WotLK years

Organizing. Building community.

Maybe, with genetic modification. I think sex has the knobs maxed out for our current chemistry.

People are just not very attractive nowadays

Nah its going to rock bottom
Maybe that's the problem. A lot of the ladies I know say that sort of thing is uncomfortable.

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.
Yeah uhm....women would be the ones loosing here not men....
