Oh no, my miserable life that’s devoid of any connection and anyone altogether otherwise *at least contains a friend.

No, those who are lead to reactionary figures is irregardless of dating someone. That’s literally not related. Not to mention so many of these people that complain about this are below 22, at which dating is viewed as uncommon among most of the normal population anyway

?? who is your normal population, most people I grew up with started dating in high school

In the U$, I’ve found it uncommon to date before you finish your Bachelor’s degree. It is seen as not acceptable to your family and they will find it unacceptable and generallly looked down upon if you do so by other people as well. I haven’t had a single friend who did before 20 at the youngest

Did you grow up in an immigrant and/or religious community? I grew up in a major US city and although it's not cool to outright shame somebody for being a virgin or "late bloomer", everybody thinks it's unusual. Marriage before degree is unusual though, at least among my PMC cohort.

That seems essentialistic.

It’s not essentiallistic . Thant’s just bullshit to claim that the reason they are conservative is that they were too awful for people to want to be around. It’s the other way around if anything
