→‎Sexlessness in young unmarried US men is now 28% and rising, particularly affecting ethnic men: removing unsourced guesswork. that graph is shite without confidence intervals. i know for a fact that the Ns are super low so most likely none of the changes are significant apart from the trend for all men. was also criticized on twitter: https://archive.is/Jq7ho

The best information we have to judge [[Demographics of inceldom|trends of celibacy in North America]] comes from the NORC GSS, more fully known as the National Organization for Research at the University of Chicago General Social Survey. This is a long running social survey in America which every two years asks a representative group of thousands of Americans questions to gauge numerous aspects about their lives.
Currently the largest dataset on sexual activity is the [http://gss.norc.org/get-the-data NORC GSS] (the General Social Survey of the National Organization for Research at the University of Chicago). This is a long running social survey in the U.S. which every two years asks a representative group of thousands of Americans questions about their lives. GSS data has shown that the rate of young U.S. men who did not have sex in the past year has skyrocketed, now being at 28%, substantially higher than it was a decade ago (around 10%). There are some indications that ethnic men are a bit more affected by inceldom, especially U.S. East Asians and South Asians. There are also some indications that women are slightly less affected by the rise of inceldom. For further discussion see [[demographics]] article. See also [[causes of inceldom]].


The NORC GSS has shown that male celibacy has skyrocketed in recent years, which is now at 28%, almost triple what it was a decade ago. The biggest cultural shift that has coincided with this increase in male celibacy is the rise and dominance of online dating. However, the trend of increasing male celibacy started even since the 60s according to other data, indicating the sexual revolution which freed women's [[hypergamy]] may have been the first step in this direction.
<span style="font-size:125%">'''Discussion:'''</span>


The majority of increased male celibacy is being born by ethnic men, while ethnic women by contrast are at their lowest rates of celibacy in history. This trend matches the known racial data covered above, as ethnic men are punished by women in a way that ethnic women are not punished by men.
If these trends continue, it may well be that the U.S. will follow suit Japan, where already >40% of young unmarried men and women are not only not in relationships, but are also virgins, causing it to be the least sexually satisfied nation with a huge number of socially reclusive males, so called [[hikikomori]]s.
 
To a lesser extent, female celibacy also appears to be rising at a slower rate, indicating that some women are now dropping out of the dating market, despite continued high demand for women from men. Possible explanations for this behavior in women would be [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision_fatigue decision fatigue] from having "too many options," the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_comparison_theory comparison effect] from a swipe based dating system creating impossible to fulfill expectations, increased demands from school and work, and [https://gizmodo.com/study-no-one-is-having-sex-on-tinder-1826179273 receiving sufficient validation] from the online apps themselves not to need dating from them.
 
If trends continue without a new cultural shift, it may well be that America begins to resemble Japan, where >40% of young unmarried men and women are not only not in relationships, but are also virgins.
 
The rising sexlessness also affects teenagers and especially black teenagers ([https://www.childtrends.org/indicators/sexual-activity-among-teens source], [https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#The_percent_of_high_school_students_who_date_is_plummeting source]).
