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 It’s outdated.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.
