I might actually C&P the passages from his book when I have time.

Not because I'm trying to prove that I'm right or I'm trying to flame. But because it's a fascinating book that changed my views on a lot of things. I'd be i terested in a discussion - on any of the topic that he approached. Not necessarily on the sexual part, since this is a more contentious topic.
 
I didn't come up with this view.

Among others who hold that opinion, I listened to some podcasts by Neil Howe, and I also read his book "Millenials rising".

There is a difference between opinion and fact. Fact is backed up by research and data. Opinion is something you pull out of your ass. Just like the information apparently from your Podcasts. Feel free to back it up with some numbers. As much as you want to believe that we are returning back to puritanical times in the 1950s, it's not happening. Millennial's are the driving force behind dating apps like tinder and grinder and the gazillion other ones out there. They've just taken the bar scene out of it and made it as easy to meet people at your fingertips.

I agree with the fact that they avoid settling down part because of crippling debt and so on.

But they claimed that they did several questionaires about values, and those indicated that millenials view sex differently than Xers do.

Even a donkey like you can give birth, moron.

And here goes your claim that you believe that I'm a Que alt, Rob.
Que has children, you idiot.

Do you realize you are discussing a book that was originally published in the year 2000?'s because that was 17 years ago. Please feel free to let me know if your book is an updated edition, because I couldn't see where there any updated volumes but I also didn't look that hard. If there aren't any updated additions to this book, anything you spout out from it is complete bullshit in my opinion. Attitudes and opinions change according to Socieconomic events and our market crash 2007-2008 changed the way many of us live, including millennials Who graduated from college but found they couldn't get a job and had a lot of student loan debt. There has since been a lot of research posted how millennial's are now waiting and some out right refusing to get married and start families.
 
image posted her picture
it was passed around
by the cool kids

and

they ultimately
drove her off.

so,
what has changed?

Nothing much.

The whole Hashtag Parminder Whothefuckever Alt thing is so manufactured... dumbarses expect the ones NOT involved to believe anything attached to the various dramatis personae, when in fact we believe NOTHING. It's just a bizarre game, and a waste of bandwidth by drones consumed with ennui. NOTHING has changed. ;)

I sent a PM to one of the main "players" and got back almost precisely what I expected. This unit is undoubtedly chuckling at my naivete. If I was doing one of Cheyenne's Excel thingies, the cross-references would be quite telling.

But, I've expended FAR too much effort on the Alt crowd today. .. Tantamount to feeding trolls, for which I say... "Meh" :rolleyes:

Sorry, I made an error. I was referring to his book "The Forth Turning".
This link offers a pretty good summary: http://www.fourthturning.com/

He wrote the book in 1997, but the panel discussions that I listened to took the ideas from the book and discussed them in the context of the present day.

It might well be that you're right as far as the attitudes of US millenials re sex are concerned, in that they don't trivialize ot as much as many Xers do.
I don't live in the States to know, I just read stuff.

I wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire. Let alone cyberfvck your promiscuous ass. :rolleyes:
 
We've established your complete lack of credibility... Non-English speaker my ass... you're a fucking Yank attention whore of indeterminent gender. who can spew shit on command.

I've been told that I'm not unpleasing on the eye. And I'm highly educated too. Both formally and as an autodidact.

So piss off, moron. I'm out of your league.
 
Well, I'm not getting laid at the moment because I don't want to. But that will probably change in the future.
Not because I wouldn't have options if I were interested.

Nobody isn't getting laid because they don't want to...well, except for Botany and thats just what he says anyway:rolleyes::rolleyes:
 
This is going to be fun.

From shit-slinging to pedantic disdain in 5 minutes. I'll bet that the synapses in that big brain were almost on overload to come up with those creative quips. :D

And then the "International Woman of Mystery" angle? Come ON... That might play in Peoria. Fella... but it's about as effective as a FIAT starter at -25 C, with me. :D

Oh well. If that's your attempt to extract a pictura of my vulva, you're out of luck.
Try the "Fvcking 30 people that I never met before is so cool!" threads. They're more of your type.
 
Volvo? I'm not interested in Volvos... :confused:

I learned my lesson with a nasty old 740 Turbo wagon, back in the 90's. ;)

Now, if you'll post pix of that rusty Panda you attempt to drive... THAT would be hawt.

Haha!
You always appear when it's cause for a joke.

According to BotanyBoy, Lit. made him discover that he's asexual. He must have met some really ugly folks
