lol lol lol nobody stopped having sex. Stop listening to stupid people
There is far less sex happening today compared to recent decades. Which is a symptom of the broader loneliness epidemic
Just because people aren't having sex with you doesn't mean they're not having sex.

I reported you for personal attacks. But maybe next time you could at least ensure you weren't completely wrong before you insult someone
It's exactly this lack of humor that's causing the no sex issue.
You not being funny has no bearing on society
People who are having sex don't treat a stranger saying they aren't having sex as a personal attack. Or well adjusted people who aren't having sex and (correctly) don't consider it a personal deficiency.
It was a joke, but by this reaction I'm getting a waft of incel bitterness, and surprise surprise, a long thread arguing about how it's bigotry for women to be warry around men in a post about incels. So it's not a surprise you're here complaining about how non-white people could get benefits unavailable to white people. These grievances tend to show up together.
Actually I was arguing that the working class should hold power in society rather than the ownership class. And no one should treat anyone differently based on immutable traits.
I didn't treat it as a personal deficiency because it doesn't apply to me. You however, attacked me and then claimed it was a joke out of cowardice. Grow up or log off
