    You mean easy as shooting kids in school? Never heard of anyone shooting fish.

        Last data I could find was from 2005...and the number of Canadian gun homicides with "about 70 percent of the guns used were handguns and automatic weapons smuggled from the United States, police say."

                Sex is almost certainly a lot easier. Stable relationships are probably considerably harder. Scarcity used to work in favor of relationships in the same way that a tough job market causes people to stick it out at unpleasant jobs longer. Any decent relationship in which you're letting each other in will be punctuated by really awful intervals. Both young men (boys, really) and young women now have lots of options when things get tough. Under those conditions, early in a relationship, rational choice theory indicates most people will bail.

                It's as if more people were prettier -- choice has significantly improved.

                I suspect the result is:

                1. A lot more sex.
                2. Higher turnover in middle term relationships (6-18 months).
                3. The long term relationships that do develop are much healthier and stronger.

                  It is.

                  But cute that Drew actually believes that we can go on Coffee Meets Bagel, Tinder, etc and immediately find a partner.

                    These are my same thoughts as well.

                    To the others, I wasn’t saying finding the love of your life or even a steady partner is easier. I think for guys it’s a lot easier to find a bit of fun though.

                      Perhaps you're not giving conservatives enough of a chance? My wife is an anti-gun, sports hating liberal and she fell in love with me.

                            I agree with DGF and think Kepler’s theory is right.

                            If you want sex, you can get sex. Finding a relationship is more difficult. I’m not sure if that’s a function of time, age, or both.
