      Stunning chart: the share of men under 30 who aren't having sex has nearly tripled in the past decade https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2019/03/29/share-americans-not-having-sex-has-reached-record-high/?utm_term=.50d764f2c767 …pic.twitter.com/HVVmffy7Jc

      Those numbers are helping drive a big shift in American sex-having habits: the number not getting laid is at a record high. Conversely, the number reporting sex weekly or more is on the decline. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2019/03/29/share-americans-not-having-sex-has-reached-record-high/?utm_term=.50d764f2c767 …pic.twitter.com/n6htQQPBMB

      Glad you asked! 1. Young male labor force participation has fallen. Less work = less relationships = less sex 2. Alongside that, men in that age group are more likely than women to live with their parents which presents... obvious barriers to having sex. https://twitter.com/aschleigh/status/1111608864040996865 …

      There also *might* be a #MeToo effect considering the drastic rise in 2018. But that's pretty speculative at this point, and the expert I talked to for this story noted that the rise in young men's celibacy was well underway prior to 2018.https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2019/03/29/share-americans-not-having-sex-has-reached-record-high/?utm_term=.a553ca9dda48 …

      I see a lot of jokes along these lines BUT: married people are way more likely to have sex. For instance only 11 percent of the married didn't have sex last year, compared to 34 percent of the unmarried https://twitter.com/elverkonge/status/1111610419200827393 …pic.twitter.com/zLNBV5NdSP

      Final datapoint: the share of young men reporting no female sex partners since they turned 18 -- a rough a proxy for virginity -- more than tripled since 2008. I say rough proxy bc 1) some had sex in their teens and 2) some exclusively have male partners.pic.twitter.com/nCJly8s3Ok

          Oh also: 18-30 year olds are nearly *twice* as likely to report past-year celibacy as 50-somethings, which is frankly amazing https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2019/03/29/share-americans-not-having-sex-has-reached-record-high/?utm_term=.9a0df62d8d52 …pic.twitter.com/SCdLVr55S4

          Everybody gets asked two separate questions: how many women, and how many men. The share of men reporting a male partner has inched up by a few points in recent years, but nowhere near enough to make up for the increase in men reporting no women partners.

          I appreciate you flagging those caveats, so this criticism is not directed at you—the title for that chart seems insanely misleading at best, and super-demeaning at worst, including out gay men in a metric of “virgins” like our relationships don’t *count* for scientific purposes.

          Possible. But I'm wondering if a lot of young men are just pussies.
