The Twin Cities are the best example in America of suburbanization in the post-war era having essentially nothing to do with race (in 1950 they were 99% white). With or without racial antagonisms, Americans were going to the 'burbs.


The removal of social etiquette around dating is a disaster for average, socially awkward dudes. For most of recent history, there were places where it was expected to talk to the opposite sex. Elizabeth & Darcy met at a ball. An Irish immigrant in early 1900s America went to a church dance where the point was to meet guys or girls. Even videos of the mall in the '90s featured teens happy to say they were there to meet the opposite sex. Now, we not only don't have organized social spaces, but guys are told constantly to leave women alone. They see viral videos of men being filmed for trying. It's easy to tell Gen Z men to just go out & socialize, but the reality is that trying to ask out women is harder than ever, both logistically & psychologically. And if you don't have social skills, even a simple activity group can feel scary & overwhelming. A no from a girl used to mean rejection; now it can mean social shame, being seen as a creep, or even worldwide humiliation via viral video. All I can really say: those viral videos are often staged. If you're polite to a girl you try to ask out, it's unlikely she's going to socially humiliate you. But that's small comfort when all of social programming currently tells men they're creepy if they dare to ask out a girl 🤷🏻♀️ Don't ask her out at her job! Don't ask her out at a group activity! Don't you dare assume that woman at the bar wants a MAN to hit on her! I don't blame guys for checking out. We removed the structures, shifted the culture, & expect men to just soldier through. But the juice isn't worth the squeeze for many, & I don't blame them 🤷🏻♀️ I'm 100% sure a lot of these guys would have been just fine in the days before dating apps & Instagram, but we're not there anymore ☹️
