A decrease in sex from all time highs is meaningless. And it is not the amount of sex, it is the lifestyle.

Jordan Peterson has a lifetime of practicing psychology from which he speaks. This is no one's fantasy.

Maybe take a look at societies were there is nearly no sex before marriage like Islamic countries.

Men can't access women so they groom little boys for sex instead.

The idea that men controlling themselves is entirely in the hands of women is dangerous nonsense. If there is no pressure on men in society to control themselves then lack of available loose women soon turns to abuse and rape of the vulnerable.

I think you are desperately reaching for any way to spin monogamy as a bad thing. I find your claim that it is monogamy that has lead them to sexual abuse to be dubious. White populations, like Mormons, who practice monogamy do not have sexual abuse problems. In fact in the US the worst sexual abuse of children comes from Hollywood elite, and they are as sexually permiscuous as you can get.

What thier monogamy has lead them to, the thing which is different from permiscuous society, is healthy birth rates, single parent employment, and non spinsters.

The last point being the only relevant one to this conversation.
