Gen Z Are “Puriteens,” But Not For The Reasons You Think.

Yeah, it is mostly for the reasons I think. For years I was told this shift to prudishness wasn’t happening, but of course it was; I was right.

This article, though, is mostly bogus, other than about the fact that the phenomenon is real. People always find “reasons” to be boring prudes, to revel in their loserdom, but that doesn’t make them the actual reasons — they are more excuses, or post hoc rationalizations.

I believe the cause is more just a rebellion against what came before. That’s most of it, and what’s left is that with everyone now so fat and unhealthy, there is just less attraction between people. It’s easier being prudish when everyone looks like a dumpster.
