Naturally. The social atmosphere prevents it:

Sexual harassment codes make it very dangerous for a boy to date a girl in this modern age; if she gets mad she can accuse him of raping her or otherwise "sexually assaulting" her and he's in big, big trouble. Meanwhile feminism is all over the educational system and the girls are told boys are all patriarchal abusers and a great many girls fear them for no other reason. Who wants to date the root of all evil?

Meanwhile the kids don't work and have no money to actually date, and most of them don't drive so have no means of going anywhere anyway. Kids in New York may take public transit to date but outside of there few kids are going to ride the bus.

Rising levels of homosexuality and transgenderism are no doubt at work here too.

Couple all of that with the intense pressure of our modern hyper-sexualized culture on young innocent kids and you have the perfect storm.

I would add they say dating is now almost entirely done on-line, either meeting people that way or even more strangely simply chatting online. There is no human contact.

Covid only accelerated this; young people fear being in the company of others now, the gift of several years of the lockdowns.

Interesting how this worked out so well for the neo-malthusians who have feared population growth for over a century. People like Bill Gates and a host of others have seen overpopulation as the number one problem facing the world, and have labored to discourage any population growth. So, is this a happy accident or by design? I would argue the latter.

Paul Ehrlich must be pleased. You do remember HIM; author of The Population Bomb from the seventies, which was used as justificxation for the Club of Rome study "Limits to Growth" which formed the bedrock of so much modern leftist thinking. It was a declaration of despair then and it continues to stalk mankind now.

So America is about to suffer empty womb syndrome and our native born population will start to decline as it has in Europe. And we will suffer the same fate; the demise of American culture as we are overwhelmed by those who are having babies. Our own kids have given up on that, and by extension, given up on life.

Despair is an ugly thing. But that is what Liberalism creates in the end.

Liberalism is a doctrine of demons. It brings nothing but suffering in the final analysis.

BTW I didn't date much in high school either, but that was because I went to an all-boys high school and was shy to boot. My not dating was not because I didn't want to, rest assured. I regret not dating more then, when you have plenty of time to test the waters.
