Why today’s young men are terrified of sex... Any truth to this, or are y'all geezers outdated...

This illiteracy has already been addressed. No one claimed that false claims never happened. No one. Once your reading comprehension catches up to the thread, feel free to try again.

 

And that something is calories.

 

Everything in your post was also anecdotal or delusional universal claims based on nothing but anecdotal evidence. Anecdotal evidence to the contrary, on the other hand, disproves your universal claims. You actually tried claiming that more than half of all men have no hope of entering into a sexual relationship with a woman. That level of insanity will make a flat earther blush.

Even the suggestion of maybe acting like a decent human being for a change is met with slavish, brainwashed accusations of "shaming . . .from femininsts and LW men." Just pathetic. The Socially Conservative Justice Warriors have gone from (pre Trump) admiration for the concept of being a gentleman to (post Trump) the accusation that anyone trying to be gentleman or suggesting that others should be a gentleman is somehow a LW extremist! Simple insanity, on the face of it. Try learning something from the conservatives that once valued something beyond fear, aggression, and the blind worship of authority.

I know this will trigger you, but if you want to attract women, I still encourage you to just try treating them right. This used to be common knowledge on the RW, but now the fringe SCJWs want to treat is somehow controversial. It's sad, but it is a demonstration of why people who say that looks are the only thing that stood in their way DEFINITELY had something else standing in their way.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a wife to take care of. She's going through a rough time this week and my Southern somewhat-conservative upbringing has taught me to treat her with a modicum with respect and empathy, no matter how much basic human emotions are going to trigger the snowflake SCJWs.

 

The article doesn't come out directly and say it, but the real problem with those examples seems to be porn. Others have already mentioned it in this thread, but there seems a big difference between getting a peek at a Playboy or Penthouse occasionally in your teens and having an unlimited amount of streaming movies of virtually every possible fetish from the first time you get your own phone. That has to make a difference.

 

Me thinks you make a lot of sense!

 

About to head out of town for a week to spend time with my wife, but I'll just leave with a couple of thoughts and (for those who find it valuable), some pointers.

1) For those blaming porn: there's probably some evidence of this. Porn advances some unrealistic expectations that can make some people, especially young men, feel inadequate. If you are a young man in such a boat and you are reading this, then I'm not going to tell you to give up porn. You won't. But I will suggest you try reading more erotica and watching more porn that has been written by women and targeted toward women. Trust me, you'll learn a few things, and it isn't nearly as discouraging/misinformative as a lot of the stuff written by men/for men. No, this isn't a "men bad" thing. If you want to know how to please a woman, then read upon/watch what they have to say about what pleases them. If you find this controversial, you have a lot of growing up to do.

2) For those blaming diet: that's more of a concern for older men, but I guess it impacts some younger men too. Regardless, if you notice a lack of libido and you want to do something about it, go see your doctor. Chances are they will suggest a change in diet and exercise before anything else.

3) For those on the fringe right blaming society for not providing the equality of outcome in sex that you think you are owed (aka, incels): First of all, do you realize everything you are saying is just the same thing as what the fringe left says only applied to sex instead of economics? Anyway, most people meet their sexual partners through social circles, not as a random hookup at a bar. So develop your social circle, but a decent gentleman, and take care of yourself. It ain't rocket surgery. Most importantly, stop making the rookie incel mistake of treating sex as transactional. If you read this and start bubbling about "But I was nice to this girl and she still didn't sleep with me," then you need to mature a bit before even thinking about sex. If you can't get beyond the idea of sex as a transaction, then hire a prostitute. Even then, try doing some growing up first. And if you read all of this and can't help but stomp your feet and screech about how treating a woman with even that baseline level of respect is "feminist" or "leftwing," then please wait until you reach emotional adulthood before attempting any of the above.

 

Still looking for some sativa that was as good as Colombian Gold from the mid 1970s. The indica today is more potent than the indica of the 70s in fact the indica today puts you down. But I prefer the sativa that is trippy and makes you want to get off the couch and get active.

I think we must have lost those sativa strains that were so good long ago .

 

'Garyd', I couldn't agree more w/ your post, however, it does present an opportune opening to the introduction of what us women can carry 'between our legs' (or on an inner thigh...). Tks, Garyad! (& NO I don't work for Ruger mfg.)

When what's "between a female's legs" turns out to be propelling a (hollow point) HP center fire bullet at "whatever" - notice will probably be taken, lol...

 

Dodge... noted. Not surprised. Young men, hell ALL men, have rational reasons to be insecure about false allegations of sexual abuse. That it is as infrequent as being "struck by lightning" is a bald-faced lie.

 

Dishonest bullshit. Not surprised. Stopped reading there. None of my post was anecdotal, I have no need at all of any of your "advice" for meeting women. The topic of this thread is -young- men, couldn't POSSIBLY be any clearer, my initial post was accurate and you didn't scratch the surface of it.

 

Thanks for sharing. Great post.

 

Along those lines, but not exactly topical, women taking some responsibility for their own safety and conduct is heartening in a country with many feminists who think they live in some kind of invisible protective bubble provided by government, and where any suggestion that women modify ANY of their behavior, be responsible or accountable, is "misogynistic."

 

Jumping in mostly because I've been looking for gift ideas, but is an inner thigh holster really a good CCW option for women? I have no context here, but she likes her little pistol. Wouldn't mind another option for her to carry it in the future if this really works.

 

So many ways to conceal, I actually have several Ruger LCP 2's configured differently. This 'clip' I've found useful a good percentage of the time as I wear western style boots often & clip it to the top inside of my boot (flat base w/o the pinky extension works best for the mag) ... https://www.technaclip.com/ (also good on the inside of the waistband). Wearing tight, revealing clothing can really limit 'concealed carry' CC for us women ... S

 

And needless to say you would do the same thing to your own kids because violence BREEDS violence, right?

There are plenty of alternative ways to discipline kids WITHOUT violence that are just as effective.

However they take time and patience and being prepared to LISTEN to your kids and EXPLAIN to them what they did wrong and WHY they are being punished for it.

But that is just too much like HARD WORK when BEATING a small CHILD is quicker and easier.

 

Have you considered that your reaction has more to do with your age rather than the weed itself?

 

But they are very rare. 5 out of 6 people who play Hussar Roulette do survive. In Russia, it is not called Russian Roulette.

 

Sadly in many places around the globe, severe child abuse is considered the norm. I was never beaten. Some of my friends were very severely.

 

I was severely beaten as a child and if it was done today that would be a criminal offense. Because of what I suffered I swore that I would never do the same to my own child and I kept my word. The cycle of abuse can be broken and MUST be broken IMO.

 

Effectively. Not beaten, but one of my parents broke the cycle. I had however in my family history of abuses that would seems incredible in cruelty.
I'm quite afraid however there is new kind of abuses that emerge, parents not providing any limit to their children, or any real care besides putting them in front of the tv or a tablet.

I'm afraid however we're starting to be seriously off topic.

 

Thank you for sharing! Best wishes! Many of my friends were severely beaten. In many places in the World that is the norm and acceptable. I came from USSR in 1983.

 

Who goes to a bar to hook up nowadays? They use dating apps like tinder first to actually meet up and then go some place public to meet up. Then they hook up later. This comes across as someone who doesn't actually hook up with random strangers in today's day and age.

 

I hoked up with my wife forty-six years ago and when I said forsaking all others I meant it. And in answer to your question a hell of a lot of people do. Especially Men. Sometimes people just don't want to wait. Not to mentions which your grandma's persona on line is 22 and sexy if she so choose and your broke ass ole grandpa is a hip rich young swinger. Anyone can be anything on line. Not a lot of truth in advertising at a lot of those on line dating aps.

 

Unless my calendar is off, 46 years ago is not today. Your sexual fantasies from when you were young have no bearing to how it works today. If it seems like you couldn't do now what you could back then that's probably because what you were doing back then was wrong. Listen to your post. You're assuming women are property, possessions of men to claim and keep away from other men. How much agency does a woman have in your worldview when all she wants is something phallic?

 

Nor do your experiences and preconceived notions reflect everyone else's reality. I assume no such thing. My world view then is much the same as it is now. Even a prostitute has the right to say no but in the case of a prostitute was it rape or was it an argument over what the services rendered were worth that later morphed into a rape claim? Women are in certain regards not much different than men both are prone to lying whenever it suits them and the internet just makes that easier. I've never assumed any human being is property male or female. What I do assume is that all of us male and female are responsible for their own decisions. If you choose to place yourself in danger to some extent that's on you. Note this does not make the person who Chose to take advantage of your bad choices blameless. It does however mean that avoiding bad choices is to your advantage and could keep you out of the very situations of which you complain.
