    For anyone under the age of 25, they’ve likely never seen tits

    We are approaching incel levels not seen since Ben Shapiro made comments about his wife’s dry vagina.

    I don’t understand where this narrative that Gen Z is sexless comes from. I’m not Gen Z, but like… a song about “wet ass pussy” came out at a time when no one could really go to clubs and it was still a huge hit. The video was so sexual that Ben Shapiro described his wife’s pussy as bone dry to discredit the video’s legitimacy. People still like tits. People still like ass. People still like dong.

      They were asked to stop harassing and dog whistling every woman they see and they chose to interpret that as “zoomers hate sex” instead of “quit being an asshole” because they are incapable of self reflection.

      gen z’s not sexless, i think the rate of virginity in young people is just significantly higher than the past. like there’s a study from 2015 saying “40% of college students are virgins” and it’s gotta be even higher now

      i think it’s mostly young people being shy, alienated, and/or averse to hookup culture and the commodification of sex. like i’m a sophomore and got it with someone i really liked, but rn am giving dating a break until i have the schedule and mental availability for it. fucking someone at a party or from the swipe of an app just seems kind of depressing.

      from my experience gen z is simultaneously pretty sex positive and virginity positive. people don’t really slut shame, and you’re not an outcast for not getting laid (was it embarrassing to be a 20 year old virgin in like the 90s/00s?). WAP is just a good example of us not being prudish tbh, people saw it as fun or funny and it was a tiktok dance trend

        gen z is simultaneously pretty sex positive and virginity positive

        Boomers:

        “Women who sleep around and wear crop tops and short shorts are wh*res with no self-respect, your body is a temple”

        “Young people today are sexless losers who spend all day their phone, when I was in high school half my class got drunk and gave each other chlamydia”

        My mom always complains about how the media pushes sex on kids nowadays, forgetting all those teen movies and TV shows from her generation (genX) that depicted sex as a high school rite of passage, and virgins as pariahs and losers.

      i definitely understand the narrative when it comes to young people’s views on sex in popular culture, where gen z people polled were extremely sex negative. They didn’t want any sex in movies whatsoever, they didn’t want any sex in TV or music whatsoever. There are in practice more sex negative than the Hays code, rivaling Victorian era purity policing and moral panics.

      I think this has to do with them being raised on internet porn, and thus conflating degrading/exploitative porn and sex. Porn has poisoned all of sexuality and made it all bad, hence why it needs to be removed from the “good” part of their lives (the public superego facing portion that consumes and discusses media). They don’t want to be reminded of their “sinful” life fapping while out and about because when you aren’t in the mood for it that hardcore degrading stuff is unsettling. Hard to blame the generation for disliking sex when what “sex” has become in 2024 is pornhub front page incest/fetishist shit.

      No generation is hornier than any others, but ten minutes on the horny side of Twitter will show that Gen Z is not sexless. They’re just more isolated and alienated than those that came before them and somewhat less likely to be doing it in person.

      I don’t think they have. Hollywood movies have less sex in them (though still not zero) and they assume that that applies to every single cultural institution.

        The fact these people are actually complaining that Hollywood stopped shoehorning in completely unnecessary romantic b plots in movies is hilarious.

        Why is the women character doing something other than biting their lip while starring at the main character while wearing a low cut dress.

            I think there’s plenty of room for healthy sexuality and still being annoyed by the fact any leading women had to bang the male protagonist despite having no interactions up to that point in every movie until 2016.

              the solution to which isn’t removal of romance or sex, but better writing and characters. Going in the exact opposite of the correct direction to cut all of human intimacy and libidinal and erotic urges from art.

              Look at non-hollywood European, Japanese and Korean movies. WAY more sex, WAY more eroticism, and WAY better female characters.

                And your convinced that’s what the chuds are mad about? That the female characters aren’t well written enough?

                  it’s not the “chuds” it’s a vast majority of Gen Z when polled who feel “icky” about sex and are generally sex negative in their outlooks
