Yeah, the birth rate is tanking mostly because Zoomers are not bothering to date at all, let alone having sex and risking pregnancy. They are the generation of abstinence that purity culture always wanted.
It doesn't help that it costs $200 for a traditional date (dinner and a show), and that they have no hope for an actual future, such as home ownership, retirement or continuing to survive in a stable society.
