My dude. Not getting laid is not “suffering.” Literally talking to other people or scrolling through a hookup subreddit and then DMing someone in your area is enough, it’s really not a matter of material conditions. People are horny, they really don’t give that much of a shit.
Trying to cast it this way is like trying to make “leftist incelism” and I am begging you to touch grass on this one. Take a hike and jerk off if you’re really that horny.
Holy shit.
Most people are a lot less shallow than you think when it comes to economics and mental or physical well-being. I suppose if you still live with your parents, your best bet is going to be to go to the other person or a motel, though I think that’s best discussed with them, not me.
Nevertheless, no one is entitled to have sex with other people, and no, you’re not fucking suffering because you haven’t gotten laid. If you crave relationships and romantic interaction with another person, then you need to actually talk to other people. You can’t just expect it to magically descend from the heavens or spite the world because it doesn’t. Life is not a 90s romcom, love is what you make of it, not what Nora Roberts assigns you ten pages into the book.
About 1 in 3 men ages 18 to 24 years reported no sexual activity in the past year, according to a new studyTrusted Source published in JAMA Network Open. (Note: this is pre covid)
I could be totally wrong, but I’m going to guess you’re someone for whom sex is easy to come by, and so you’ll never really be able to understand the perspective of someone for whom having sex or other relationships is difficult. I don’t necessarily disagree with what you’re saying (I’m not the person you’re responding to) but it’s amazing and insulting just how out of touch you come off as. To have sex requires a lot of personal effort on part of the person who wants sex, and that’s true, but it is absolutely no where near as easy as you make it seem, especially in the modern western world where we are all atomized and alienated from each other.
Like you mentioned earlier “just use dating apps or hookup subreddits” which is just so detached from (heterosexual) men’s experiences on these platforms that it’s almost hilarious. I could go into more detail but you seem very set in your own perspective so I don’t think there’s a point.
