Find Out Where You Stack Up Against Your Competition…
“Millennials are having less sex than their parents!”
This headline has been making the rounds over the past few weeks, and it’s shocked more than a few people.
After all, millennials are the “hookup generation”…
Using Tinder 24/7…
And having no-strings sex all the time…
Right?
Well…yes and no. Millennial women decide who to sleep with based on something called “mate value.”
And as a woman in her 20s, I can tell you firsthand that your “mate value” matters. A lot.
So how can you use your “mate value” to figure out if she’ll sleep with you? And are millennials REALLY getting busy less often than their parents?
The Misleading Study That Started it All…
The idea that millennials are having less sex came from a study, published in the Archives of Sexual Behavior.
Basically, the study found that 15% of millennials between the ages of 20 and 24 have had 0 sexual partners since the age of 18.
Compare that to 20 to 24-year-olds in 1960: Only 6% of them hadn’t had a sexual partner since age 18.
So today, there are more young people abstaining from sex than there were 56 years ago.
The media took one look at this study and ran with it:
- “Millennials Don’t Have Sex? Of Course We Don’t” from The Guardian…
- “Millennials Aren’t Having Sex” from Quartz…
- And even “Millennials Are Having Way Less Sex Than Their Parents” from TIME!
And people freaked out. Understandably so.
But the truth is that millennials aren’t having less sex than their parents! The vast majority of millennials are sexually active. And arguably more sexually active than their parents.
However…
The percentage of millennials who aren’t having sex is larger than it used to be.
And here’s what that means for you:
What’s Really Going on Here?
At the end of the day, the “15%” statistic that everybody is freaking out about is exactly that: A statistic. A number.
It has no real meaning until you understand the why behind it.
So why are more millennials choosing not to have sex?
According to relationship expert Dr. Helen Fisher, there are 2 root causes that explain this spike in sexual inactivity:
1) Millennials are more ambitious
The idea of being “successful” has changed a lot over the past 50 or 60 years.
It used to mean finding a wife…
Having a steady income…
And starting a family.
But today, it’s much more complicated. More millennials are choosing to forego marriage and stay focused on their careers.
And that’s because a steady income isn’t enough for young people anymore.
They want to start their own businesses and be their own bosses.
They want to have everything, and they’ll do anything to get it. Including not have sex.
On top of that…
2) Millennials are more cautious
A lot of young people grew up in broken homes with divorced parents.
And so millennials who do want to get married want to feel 100% certain in their decision.
But it’s difficult to feel 100% certain about anything when you’re in your 20s…
So a lot of millennials end up avoiding sex and relationships because they’re just not sure what they want yet (and they’d rather be certain than get into a bad relationship).
Think about it:
Sex is something that naturally leads into a relationship…
So millennial women look at sex like a “gateway drug” into a relationship. They’d rather have sex with the right person than have a one night stand, because a one night stand could end up getting messy.
Put those two factors together, and you’ve got a lot of hesitant perfectionists on your hands.
So what the hell do millennials want out of a relationship?
According to Fisher, millennial women look for a man with a high “mate value.”
And “mate value” is basically another way of describing your “worth” in a relationship.
It can be measured by asking yourself 3 questions:
So How High Is Your “Mate Value”?
Here are 3 questions you can ask yourself to assess your “mate value” and determine whether or not a woman will go home with you:
- How much education do you have?
- How much money do you make?
- How much social power do you have?
The more education, money, and social influence you have…
The higher your “mate value”! And according to Fisher, millennial women are getting pickier and pickier because they’re waiting to find someone with the highest possible “mate value.”
To state the obvious: You want to have a really high “mate value.”
If a woman is in a bar or club looking for sex, she’s going to choose the man with the highest “mate value.” Every single time.
Here’s the thing, though: increasing your “mate value” can be a lot of work.
You’d either have to go back to school…
Or look for a higher-paying job…
Or somehow climb the social ladder…
Yikes. No thanks!
But there is one hidden way to increase your “mate value”– and if you do it right, you’ll up your “mate value” exponentially…
The “Mate Value Multiplier” That Doesn’t Take Time or Cash…
As I said above, there’s a much easier way to up your mate value.
It’s quick, easy, and doesn’t cost you any extra money at all…
And yet it’s so powerful that it has a “multiplier” effect: It increases your “mate value” instantly and with very little effort on your part.
In fact, my last boyfriend used it on me! He wasn’t rich or well-educated…
You could even say he was kinda nerdy…
But when I met him, I felt that “jolt” of electricity…
And it’s all because he knew exactly how to touch me.
From the moment his hand touched my skin, I was hooked. And as time went on, I became more and more “addicted” to him.
I hate to admit this, but even though he ended things with me…
I still think about him a lot…
And I can’t stop obsessing about the way he used to touch me.
I didn’t really even understand it until I came across this:
It shows you why your touch is such a powerful turn-on…
…and why clever “lines” and “routines” almost always fall short.
