To sum up and to thrown an idea up in the air:
There has been a decline in sex over the past decade. It can't be purely coincidental that while the world became witness to a depressing depression, people are having less sex. After all, depression is often linked to reduced libido... and if you're constantly stressed out over your (and your family's) future, you might not have enough energy to enjoy sex either, which in turn can form a negative feedback loop.
Welcome to the brand new (joyless) world.
- ellius 9y agoI’m surprised there has been so much less response to this comment than so many of the others. It’s very plausible that the root causes of widespread depression and a widespread decrease in sex are related. I’m not sure you can easily pull out any one cause, but it would be reasonable to suspect that modern work and social habits are leading factors (possibly also diet).
