Why are there so many "failure-to-Launch Young Men" .. . .? . . .select the most likely reason . ..

as there is only one answer allowed, Id have to go with feminism. the constraints feminism puts on men, how they behave, constant shaming through the media, the law and society ready to slam down on men, are all restrictive factors.
a man and a woman go out, have a drink, end up n bed, she regrets it, cries rape..he ends up in court!
thats one scenario. feminism has backfired, you go guurrrlll!

Sounds like you may have had a personal experience that was not good????

Fear of Sinkholes.

The reason is now hidden.
The major problem:
They're unable to haiku

How about the promotion of unintelligent sociality and silverback gorilla logic into the general public?

Please describe more accurately what you consider to be "Failure to Launch" ?

Does this mean, died during child birth?

Thanks

As in the biggest gorilla in the jungle gets all the girls, cars, homes, jobs and everyone else gives up?

No it means they are living in their parent's basement (or something like the basement) instead of living on their own and are not employed or are under employed because of a lack of motivation or fear of failure . . . they may or may not have a girlfriend and have no ambition or desire to get married and start a family of their own . . . etc. . . .

The dichotomy of motherhood and lack of an active father.

On one hand we have welfare, don't give a shit where my children are moms.

At the other extreme, we have helicoptor moms who do not teach young men how to be responsible for themselves or their bad choices.

not my personal experience, just an example. I have a male friend who works in the courts, the example above is quite common. the dice are loaded in favour of women, if you know your opponent is holding all the aces, do you fold or go all in?

So you think it is parenting, especially from the Moms . . . if so . . . why are men less able to be given proper parenting than the girls??? The young girls seem to be doing better in general . . .

Its bad parenting it's mothers who baby their sons and destroy their lives by not letting them be a BOY.

So society (authorities) do not trust men especially young men but do trust young women . . . young men guilty until proven innocent . . .

Empowering women left young men in the dust.

Interesting . . . may I ask if your a man or a woman . . . a parent or not?

There are a lot of "failure-to-Lanuch Young Women" too.
I admit that I am one. There are so many factors out of our control and only so many that we can control. I have had a hard life and I am doing the best I can. I don't blame men for anything.

So it is not possible to empower one sex without hurting the other sex . . ???

its not trust, its value. females are valued more, because they can be controlled, see how that works? females are much more malleable, easier pawns to move around, gte them to move and the males follow, only, the males are saying...f ck that!

i think alot see theres no fucking point. they see what society is, and actively avoid it simply because FUCK IT. you live and die. do the fuck you want.

its all a dumb fucking convoluted game that shouldnt even be the way it is.
Even if you win, youre still a rat.

as for why its young men and not women, is fucking obvious, because women have life on easy mode. not to mention almost 100% of women in 2013 are completely fucking brainwashed sheep.

My theory is that we have made life too physically easy. When we don't have to physically work, like they did 100 years ago, to put food on the table and a roof over their heads people get depressed. Why? because their brain chemistry is off due to the lack of daily physical exertion.

Men would have more physical jobs in industry like farming, mining, fabrication, ect. They would come home from work physically exhausted. The women in the meantime would be keeping house and watching the children without the luxuries of modern things like vaccuum cleaners, washing machines, dish washers, television, ect. The lack of technology caused people to exert physical energy every day. The release of endorphins which is a natural pain killer and natural antidepressant. Without the daily release of natural endorphines, we became dependant on chemical replacements like the SSRIs, benzos, narcotic pain killers, ect. Why is this important? Because they have side effects, common ones being apathy, somnulence, depersonalization and reduced sexual desire. Again, why is this important? They don't feel the drive or need to connect and bond with another person emotionally and sexually.

And with technological advances, one can raise a child independently where 100 years ago it was virtually impossible to support children without 2 parents present.

And for the portion of young people who do not take these drugs, think about what happens to our water supply. Millions of people are on these drugs, and they rid their body of urine and feces daily. These waste products contain trace amounts of these drugs. They go into the water system that is designed to remove bacteria and the like and recycle the water safely. But what about the trace amounts of drugs? Do they have a way to remove the drugs from millions of people's urine and feces from our water supply? I've never heard of any sort of treatment process for removing them.

Also, these undrugged young people today have mostly been raised by apathetic, disconnected, legally drugged parents. So they have been unknowingly given those emotional traits in their upbringing. It doesn't mean they are bad parents-they don't intentionally sabotage their young. They were more than likely brought up in a similiar fashion and each generation produces more of these people until the healthy, emotionally stable, two parent households are a rarity.

Like I said, this is just my own personal theory from observation and research, but it has been studied:

Thank you for your Post . . . What do you consider "Failure-to-Launch" . . .?

I edited to add lack of active fathers to guide their sons.

So by your theory . . . is there an answer to this situation or is it going to continue or even get worse?

Great observation / research!

So you now feel the failure is more a lack of influence by fathers as the proper role to follow??

So do you think this generation has it harder now than previous generations . . ??

Thanks! It all started piecing itself together for me a few years ago while I was trying to figure out why I was having issues in my relationship. I also had just hired a personal trainer and started exercizing regularly for the first time in my adult life and felt amazing while my boyfriend continued on his downward spiral.
