>What is causing this epidemic?
It's quite simple.
Women are attracted to men. Confident strong men. Women do not know how to teach their sons to be that and it can only be learned from other men. Whether that's an older brother, cousin, father, grandfather etc. Without learning how to be Confident and or successful, you will not carry yourself as a man who is capable. Without that Women will never select for you. Let alone even notice you. You will not give her the tingles that suggest you're able to be a man and give her children or protect or provide for them.
That's mostly all it is. Now this confidence can come from many sources. Being a great hunter and being able to provide for your village or tribe. Being a powerful fighter or amazing athlete, all of these will give you a swagger in your step that let's Women know they should pay attention to you. But those aren't the only sources. It could be Being a popular gaming streamer or even a CEO. The problem is when you have belief in your own skill, power, and value. People like this will signal their low status and Women will immediately detect it and treat you accordingly.
Thank you for reading my Ted talk. For any women reading this it should be obvious I know what I'm talking about and that I can take care of emotionally, physically, and financially. Feel free to contact me so we can discuss impregnation at your earliest convenience.
