That might have something to do with it. But gen-z seems to have more a purity culture than millennials and gen-x had.
Many are very into exercise and fitness from a very young age. Control their diets. Sleep super early, get up early.
They are going less to clubs (and shitty dive bars). Doing less drugs. Having less sex.
You can say its all because of money. But broke teenagers and young adults of previous generations had their fun, went out, destroyed their bodies. You know, it can be REALLY cheap to get fucked up and well, get fucked or fuck.
it’s not cheap to get fucked up anymore. it’s not cheap to go out, all this tracks.
gyms however, are still cheap.
no idea what you are on about purity. i just know a lot of 22 year olds at my work who are broke and live at home. they are ‘boring’ and ‘pure’ because they don’t have much other choice. they can’t afford to party. they’d like to, but when you make 2-3K a month, spending $200 going out on a saturday night at a bar isn’t exactly affordable.
sex rates also correlate highly to economic conditions. nobody fucks and has babies when it’s economically tough, and when we have good economy there is a baby boom and the marriage rate spikes.
You think people in their late teens and early 20s in the past fucked more cause they thought “ah if I have a kid it’s no issue, I can support them!”?..
Also come on… it is really cheap to get fucked up. There is really cheap booze. Really cheap weed. Really cheap drugs in general really.
And you know, you pre-game, go to a dive bar during live music night or some shit. Meet some new people, make mistakes, make memories you’ll only re-remember at the most inconvenient moments.
Go to a rave. They are really cheap and md has not become anymore expensive throughout the years.
Actually, this is something that the more I think about is true. Drugs are some of the few things that haven’t really increased in price at all.
Getting fucked up is one of the few things you can do as a young person that has DECREASED in comparative cost.
Camping with friends and taking lsd and shrooms, raving and taking md, going to a dive bar and smoking weed… its all CHEAPER now, comparatively.
