If I understand correctly, the article looks at data from 2003 to 2022. I’m not sure if I would call that long-term. What about 1922 to 2022 for example? Or even longer.
From what I understand from my parents and grandparents (I’m Gen X), they did quite a lot of stuff at home (i.e. meet friends, make music etc.)
Going out was the exception, not the norm.
- advisedwang 2y agoDepends on what "going out" you mean. Restaurants - sure. But it seems plausible "a drink with colleagues after work" or "taking the kids to the library" or "going to a church activity" have all declined since the 1920s
