Sexlessness and loneliness are thought to have many different causes, e.g. of economic, cultural or environmentalist/pessimist nature, as well as rapid technological changes.

The result is a low birth rate, coddled children who are prepared for late marriage and higher education,<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#The_percent_of_high_school_students_who_date_is_plummeting</ref> and women save themselves up for the ideal mate.<ref>https://journals.openedition.org/chs/737#bibliography</ref> At the same time, a decline of tradition and gender roles (driven by a push towards higher female workforce participation) and hypergamy are thought to accelerate the trend. Beside this, it has been suggested today there is a large mismatch between the modern environment and our natural one, leading to deteriorating social functioning. In particular, people may have an expectation to be married rather than making their own choices as arranged marriage was a very common occurrence in human's past.<ref>https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/1474704919887706</ref> Increased mutational load mainly due to milder living conditions and modern medicine drastically reducing infant mortality,<ref>https://doi.org/10.1007/s40806-017-0084-x</ref> as well as pollution (e.g. xenoestrogens), and/or changes in diet may have lead to a decline of masculine features, such as robust mandible, compact midface,<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Men_with_dominant.2C_aggressive_faces_.28high_fWHR.29_are_preferred_for_short_term_relationships</ref> and also reduced testosterone levels and hence reduced muscle mass, but also a higher incident rate of all kinds of diseases (obesity, underweight) and mental conditions, e.g. autism.

Such changes should predict that more men now fall below what is objectively deemed as lowest bar for physical attractiveness by most women.
