Is (((social media))) and apps like tinder the reason romance

It's a big world buddy, don't let your experiences skew your perceptions.

There's 7 billion people on the planet, there are still billions who care about love and want to date normally

>nobody wants to marry
>nobody wants to have kids
that's largely a result of the job market, social media and tinder are merely side effects of it. Japan has the same problem and they don't use tinder nearly as much as the western world but stuff like love hotels popped up much earlier in history. When jobs take over your life and the blunt of your early 20s to late 30s is pouring yourself into your occupation, you don't have time for romance and date nights. So you just hook up at a love hotel.

Meanwhile, notions of romance are still strong in latin american countries. You would be hard pressed to find a wife in mexico if you didn't date her a bunch, meet her family, etc. etc. Because the work culture is different there, society wants guys to be family men instead of some benefit to society. I mean one of the most followed hispanic Instagram models is married. That wouldn't be the case in any other region.

No it's that people are aware of the benefits and the relaxation of not having kids.

You can still marry and be romantic without kids

Why marry if you're not going to have kids?
