The Breakdown of Sexual Relations
Many young people today experience a significant breakdown in romantic and sexual relations, particularly between men and women. Data shows that a large percentage of Gen Z individuals report not engaging in sexual activity and feeling chronically lonely. Louise Perry attributes this decline to multiple societal changes, but chiefly to the sexual revolution, which she argues has paradoxically liberated women while also diminishing men's accountability in intimate relationships. This breakdown has made navigating romantic connections increasingly difficult as societal structures that once guided courtship have become much less formalized.
