WTF. Did not watch, but did anyone read the comments?

Because of the clear attack on masculinity, men/boys are less likely to approach and pursue women today vs 15 years ago (especially at this age bracket)- thus the girls are less likely to have healthy male/female relationships and thus feel inadequate/out of place/unwanted

and the next commenter makes the previous clear:

What? Girls' developmental health is dependent on being sexually pursued by boys? Weird take.

Gee... I wonder what might be driving female disphoria... it can’t be the increase in pornographic ads all over the internet that dehumanizes women and girls.

They talked a bit about why teenage girls do not have any dating experience (meaning normal teenage behaviour) these days. Abigail named porn as one of possible reasons.

If I were a teenager, there's no way I'd date, not with the sexy-sexy-sexy stuff now expected of teenage girls. Anal, sexting, casual hook ups, BDSM - I'd probably stay a virgin until death.

No more kiss on the cheek after an ice cream cone at the mall, with your mother pretending to shop in the background, that's for sure. I can't believe that the 1970s, with all the overt sexism women still faced, were better for teenage girls than 2021.
