Endemic use of plastics mimicking estrogen has lowered testosterone rates throughout the western world, just for starters. With both parents working, and exhausted, there is no bandwidth to pay attention to the development of offspring. Culture has moved to the left where everything is excused and blamed on someone or something else. Competition has been turned into a dirty word through our liberal school systems, and nobody wants to hurt anyone's self esteem by having "winners" and "losers" so the distinction never gets hardwired into their brains.

If you had parents who were absolutely miserable it can kill your desire to ever get married, or have a family. Especially if you hate your fuckin family, you just generally have no desire to have a family of your own. If you hate your own race, you really have no desire to create more people like yourself. |
