I can only make my local observations... but it's about the same as ever.
What's changed is relationships, not sex. If there really are fewer men having sex (however you want to measure that), it's probably because they now have more partners in their lifetime and can't find a woman who will commit. It's everyone's standards that have increased, not just women's. Either way, I just think people are more honest with themselves today compared to the past.
I think it's a great thing people today take commitment way more seriously while still being loose enough with the sex when they really need it instead of feeling entitled to it or being too prudish. If guys just want to get laid it's definitely out there. They just have to lower their expectations or be flexible and learn the increasingly diverse world of what women want. I think women are naturally more responsive to handling shifting social preferences and fashions/trends which is why their line on the graph is relatively flat. Men on the other hand depend way too much on "village knowledge" or tradition and they get bitter when it burns them that women really do demand you to "be yourself" more than ever. It makes a ton of sense to me. It's not a big deal just that some of these guys didn't get the memo. Grooming matters, fashion matters, money matters, humor and experience and standards of living matter, etc.
It's a very tired and old statement to make but men have gotten a bit lazy (not entirely their fault) and it's currently a huge advantage for those men who put in just the tiniest amount of effort. The god-awful beards, ratty clothes, dirty cars, bad taste in furniture, etc. it definitely adds up to a bad vibe but the biggest one is a sour attitude.
