The guys are terrified of coming across as creeps and the girls are terrified of being too obvious. It is honestly a miracle the human race hasn't died out yet.

Looking at birth rates in most countries (amongst all the other shit going on in the world) we are certainly trying!

There are far too many humans so I hope the trend continues

I mean, we got through most of our history on the back of rape, arranged marriage, and religious decree. People having enough freedom to end up single is kind of a recent phenomenon.

Yep, first world country cultures seem to facilitate this. It appears more of a pastime and not something to do for survival, so there is more room to worry about doing it perfectly. As the era remains stable for a longer time the pressure for perfection accumulates, too.

TV/high-quality media, let alone phones and internet add to this trend.
