I'd blame work and stress. Your average person is working longer hours for less financial benefit, while the cost of basics (housing and health care) has gone way up. Longer working hours for less money makes people tired and stressed...two instant mood killers; and a condition that is likely chronic among many. "Netflix and chill" is the modern term for hooking up, but for many it probably simply means what it means...to sit and relax. I don't blame Netflix or phones or anything other than the fact that simply getting by in the USA has become a chore for many, and Netflix and phones are the salve, not the root cause.
