  • The Simple Reason Millennials Aren’t Having Sex

    Prior generations like to talk about all the things that Millennials don’t do.

    We don’t own homes, we don’t own cars, we don’t drink (seriously, we do drink) and most of all, Millennials aren’t having sex.

    The last one is really bothering people.

    A survey conducted in 2018 found that the reason Millennials aren’t banging as much as prior generations is because we’re all really stressed out.

    No shite – the world’s a mess. If you aren’t stressed out, I want some of what you’re on.

    A more recent study into the “sexual recession”- as some are calling it – proposes a different theory.

    Quartz with the details:

    It is a simple concept from financial theory that explains all the decisions we make: risk…

    Relationships are risky. You might find deep fulfillment, or get rejected. A casual relationship could turn unpleasant, the other person may get too attached, you may get too attached, and there could be a messy break-up.

    Going on a first date can be awkward, uncomfortable, wonderful, or any other number of things. There is evidence that millennials may be less inclined to take these risks. They date less, despite technology that enables them to meet more people, and are slower to marry or be in long-term relationships. All of this results in less sex.

    Then there’s the risk of STDs, STIs and unplanned pregnancy – three things that wouldn’t be as much of a worry if more funding was funnelled into reproductive health care service providers like Planned Parenthood and Marie Stopes.

    Some commentators and economists speculate that millennials are more risk averse than previous generations. This is hard to generalize. But one thing sets millennials apart from previous generations is that they benefit from a higher risk-free return from not leaving the house.

    When TV was boring and video games were rudimentary, you had to go out into the real world for the best entertainment and stimulation, both good and bad. No longer. Now everyone can live what feels like an entertaining life without taking the risk of leaving the house. Binging prestige television shows or playing immersive video games is almost guaranteed to be a pleasant evening—Tinder offers no such promises.

    No, it doesn’t. Tinder is where dreams go to die.

    Given how easy it is to binge quality telly whilst lounging around on the couch at home, I guess some things get relegated to second place.
