Are modern men and women too immature to get along?

Just yesterday I heard that more women than ever are freezing their eggs, and that made me think of that problem again. Men and women don’t like each other anymore, or at least a growing group of us don’t.

Women are freezing their eggs because they’re not confident in finding a man anytime soon, or at least one to settle down with, and they’re probably right to think that.

People can’t hold down relationships like they used to and they usually blame the opposite gender. Then you have the people who are avoiding dating (like myself) due to hating the dating scene or realising that being single is actually better in some ways.

I wonder if this problem is going to get worse, or if both genders will learn to work together again. Looking at other cultures — it’s going to be lonely for a lot of us. Start downloading your AI partners now.

We’re being taught to hate the opposite gender

I am seeing more influencers teaching people that all their dating problems, and some of their societal ones, are down to the opposite gender. Yes, both men and women can take the piss at times, but at the end of the day, most men and women are overall, just fine.
