Lonely

There is an epidemic of male loneliness. People of dating age are connecting less than ever. Men are dropping out of college, we are all working more for less pay and hypergamy is encouraging women to chase the same elite men.

There won't be a simple solution for this any time soon and technology is part of the problem. Also the rules have changed and no one knows what they are supposed to do.

Losing your purpose as provider is one of the causes perhaps but there needs to be a redefining of what role men need to adopt in society now that the traditional nuclear family has been fractured for many if not all.

Liberation from traditional social norms has gotten us here along with global economic policies that are pushing roles to be far more malleable which only adds to the confusion for both men and women.

For better or worse, it's a massive cultural shift happening as we speak.
