There’s apparently a similar story for the amount of sex younger people are having. I’ve always attributed the story to the internet and social media. IE, Younger people are just getting their “fix” from and are addicted to something else and aren’t bored in the same way older generations were when they were young.

Yep, along with Facebook becoming huge (~'08-09) with the (male) trend line starting to drop, by my eye, around '10.

Bingo. I feel like I’ve seen charts lately of that same age group hanging out in person less too. Ain’t the same getting hammered alone.
