  I don't see the correlation between your two sentences. There is an existing group of young males that are insecure, may have anger and/or anxiety problems, spend too much time on 4chan/reddit/social media as a whole, and lacks physical connection. What makes you think that they aren't trying to establish a relationship? They certainly are failing, which is why this article and lots of other exists. There is a whole community of pick up artists trying to give advice to these people, though this is often dating/one night stand advice more than relationship advice. There are also feminists trying to teach these young males how to approach women, and talking about the subject. For example, here's a post from 2014 talking about this subject too, and quoting lots of people talking about this subject, for the same audience ("nerdy young males"): https://slatestarcodex.com/2014/08/31/radicalizing-the-romanceless/ https://slatestarcodex.com/2014/08/31/radicalizing-the-roman....

    I didn't say they aren't trying to establish a relationship, I said their profile would suggest that they lack the ability to. Maybe they would benefit from seeing a therapist... but I don't think what is holding them back is how they are talking about their feelings or how they feel about intimacy.
