Halfway down the thread someone mentions that this article is based on a self-reported pew research poll and not any kind of more in-depth study.
Also whoever wrote the article either didn’t understand the actual poll or just outright lied about what the data showed lmao
comment on this:
If you drill down into the actual source of the data, which is a Pew research poll, you find a specific definition of "single". It is not actually "are you [not] dating someone".
In these stats, "single" refers to people who "are not married, living with a partner or in a committed relationship".
The important part here: a committed relationship. This is self-reported by the people being polled.
If two people are in a relationship, one may answer "yes" to this and the other may answer "no", depending on whether they see it as a "committed" relationship.
Thus, there is an interesting explanation for at least part of the data - perhaps young men don't consider themselves "committed" as often.
Combined with the age distribution phenomenon, this likely covers pretty much all of the discrepancy in the stats.

Fashy bros love to avoid putting a label on things and then blame women for not being in a relationship lol
I am a true MRA.
Has anyone noticed how it is more acceptable for women to have same-sex relationships than men? I will not stand for this imbalance! My goal is to really stick it to the feminists by fighting for the rights of gay men, that'll show those woke SJWs that men can do just fine all by themselves!
Here here we need to normalize dudes fucking their bros platonically. (Only half kidding, if het dudes were more comfortable showing platonic affection with each other I think it would solve a lot of lonliness problems for men.)
