There is no male loneliness epidemic; there is a loneliness epidemic. They have been talking about it since at least 2020 and it predates the pandemic. Anyone calling it a male loneliness epidemic is absolutely engagement farming. The entire manosphere is a rage-bait-engagement-farming scam.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
Not just engagement. Back when it was just a loneliness epidemic, there were talks of maybe bringing back third places, or changing society to help. Then it became a male epidemic, and suddenly it was someone else's problem, it's an individual issue, no need to make a cause of it.
This is actually a really fucking eye opening post, assuming they're not lying. I personally never thought there was a "virginity epidemic" among my peers, lol.
It seems like people have gotten less cliquey about virginity since then, so maybe it is a good lie?
having sex (perhaps just once?) doesn't equal not lonely, though.
Having a ton of sex doesn't equal not lonely either.
Like Barney from HIMYM, or Charlie Sheen in 2.5 men.
No, I'm pretty sure that every man who has had sex at least once in their life turned out to be a top bloke
But can't top blokes be lonely?
They say it's lonely at the top, bloke.
So.. more men as bottoms?
To me, the Bubonic plague will always be "the epidemic", but COVID can still be called the pandemic since it happened all over the world at the same time, which makes it more pandemic than the Bubonic Plague
