I can’t speak for everyone but I don’t get the whole relationship thing. There are very few mammals that are naturally monogamous. Marriage was created by humans - for the same reasons as anything else created by humans - control and prosperity. Basically guaranteeing you have offspring to help with labor, or to align with another family (arranged marriages). It’s outdated.

I’m perfectly fine being single, I love it. I mean I’m also gay so it’s a little different for me, I don’t have to worry about passing on any offspring. It’s great not answering to anyone, doing what I want, when I want, how I want. Blowing money on things with no one to complain about it. Pure freedom. I come… and go as I please.


Well, there are two types of civilizations throughout history.

The first type are monogamous lifelong partnerships. These partnerships create a stable and effective way to raise children and create a population that is strong and relatively content over the course of their whole lives.

The second type is a harem where 5% of men have access to 95% of women. This creates a lot of men with nothing to lose. It is at this point in a civilization that morality dissolves and infrastructure that was taken for granted starts to fail (Biden’s supply crisis?).

Were drifting from the first to the second rather quickly and the children will be the real victims of it. The laws and culture of peer pressure of the society are what encourage one path over the other.

I dont know what dating is like for a gay lad, but I imagine its really hard to find something stable and long term.

Marriage = stupid.

It's a business like Christmas, Valentine day and other ways they get your income.

But why do we feel like we need something long term? That’s the thing. I don’t need anyone else to validate me, or to give me confidence. I don’t need anyone’s income, finding sex is easy. What am I missing by not wanting something long term? Freedom is a beautiful thing. It’s so foreign to me when one of my friends needs to check in with their SO, or ask if they can go somewhere. Who would want to live like that?

Humans are a species that have a HIGH investment of resources and teaching for raising their offspring. Children can't function on their own until 16 typically, which is 16 years of investment of time and resources.

Children that don't have a stable family structure suffer from higher rates of abandonment, trauma, malnutrition, abuse, etc. The biggest selling point of marriage is a stable family that prioritizes the children.

I hear that finding intimacy is much easier for gay lads, I'm kinda jealous. Minimum threshold for wooing over a woman is 3 dates that cost $80 each over the course of like 2 weeks for me.

I don’t do this… but literally can send a D pic and my address and most guys would come right over.

Those things you mention can be fixed by parents just being adults and not being emotional about some BS and working together to raise their kids. I also think that who you like to spend time with may not even necessarily be someone that you’re compatible to have kids with but that’s a different issue. Like if both families have the same cancer risks, you would be better off finding different partners to have kids with even though you want to be together in life.

The newly released 2019 STD Surveillance Report found:

2.5 million reported cases of chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis, the three most commonly reported STDs in 2019.
A nearly 30% increase in these reportable STDs between 2015 and 2019.
The sharpest increase was in cases of syphilis among newborns (i.e., congenital syphilis), which nearly quadrupled between 2015 and 2019.


Are we surprised?

Why is marriage losing its grip? Fornication and porn for one. Men don’t need to marry since they can have sex for free. Feminism for another. Women no longer need a man since they can have careers and make their own money.

Our culture is trying to idolize singleness, and the Church isn’t doing much better. Singleness is an affliction for those who desire marriage, who love the Lord, and who burn. God created marriage and called it good. He said that it was not good for man to be alone, so God created a help meet for him. Marriage is God’s design for humanity. Stable nations have stable families. When the family falls apart, so does the nation, as we are witnessing in our nation.
