Do you think this generation changed the concept of love

[Arya]

Ive seen this alot on social media, ie
‘Social media killed love’

but i dont think its true, it sounds too drastic
infact things are probably better than previous generations

The idea of love has changed yes. I watched a really good video about it but basically in alot of 3rd world society's you don't tell someone you love them, you show them. It used to be the same decades back in 1st world countries, even in media you'd see it, big confessions in the rain and whatever. Love was shown differently and thrown around less

True, this is why I dont agree with dating apps to be honest
But also in the past I guess relationships were more guaranteed

 

[hersheykiss]

dating apps will be the downfall of humanity i think

Yeah, people say it because they feel like it what they're "meant" to say these days, as opposed to actually waiting untill they know they mean it

Yeah, we only say i love you in english
but like its only to friends or dating to be honest. like personally my parents dont speak english much so i feel weird talking to them in english

 

[Arya]

How

More freedom, less societal norms i guess

That isn’t necessarily a good thing though, imo that’s a bad thing

Too much freedom, option paralysis, lack of social norms allows for and encourages degeneracy. More freedom might sound good, but society is just worse off and people are less happy than they were

Maybe if u only live in social media

social media creates a hyperreality where the border between social media and reality becomes blurred, whilst love conveyed through social media may be absolutely scuffed, its not actually that bad in reality.
i take back what i said earlier, love has not been killed by social media, rather, social media is conveying a distorted view of love which is nothing like how the average interaction irl is.
videos on social media > wow love is dead this foid on tiktok is heartless this moid on insta is scum
in reality > wow love is normal

most people are very active there

 

[GermanAngel]

It definitely is worse than other decades

 

[derpy]

it didn't kill love but it changed what love is deemed to be. Much like soldiers, back in the day soldiers were knights wearing armour nowadays bc guns are used soldiers are differently equiped. Love adapted by changing bc of changes in society.

if we looked at 'love' in the 20th century and before, it used to be something precious and not something common. It used to be seen as never ending. Nowadays it's seen as more conditional and common. Something less precious...

it's also bc of stuff like dating apps, superficial love replaced real meaningful love

Better then previous generations, thats smth I COULDNT agree with this bc my ex gf did some pretty evil things to me man. And blamed it all on me after ruining my life. Back in the day people got married it’s js cheating bc everyone is so accessible. Only reason I don’t agree no disrespect to

it's also just that love years ago meant a life long bond of marriage. Marriage is seen as temporary nowadays and people just throw the word around so much that it means that love can be broken and re-made with another person. Rant over, back to studies now.

Its all propaganda anyway, social media brain fucked us all, real life is differant

Only thing i hate about modern dating is the fact its normalized to mix races

I want to be assured all races will trancend and live trough humanitys many phases in the future, not judt boring everthing same bs

People are just on social media alot, even if real life is different they will be influenced

Can you elaborate on the last part?

yh ofc arranged marriages aren't ideal but i feel like the modern concept of love isnt bad per say, it's just relatively underwhelming to the concept it used to be in the past. It says a lot about modern society, MOST feel like love back then was fairytale like. For example, the phrase 'they lived happily ever after' is now associated with fairytales where as people did truly back then meet one another and live like that without having to worry about stuff like cheating, divorce and all.

 

[vamp]

Sadly yes, its not as dradtic as sc makes it out to be but it is going in that direction, and there is nothing we can do

Can you elaborate on the last part?

1.I belive prople are meant to stay where they are born, there is a reason you are the way you are,

Darker skin is better in hotter places and white skin id better in snowy places.

2. I am scared that certain races will go extinct,

Really? I mean i think there were alot of gender norms
ie ive read about housewives feeling really empty, but i agree with cheating things but dint men in the office used to do it

 

[derpy]

but dint men in the office used to do it

a lot lot lot less than nowadays, nowadays sometimes it isnt even a shock to some people, like when i found out yesterday it didnt really shock me.

Maybe, but a lot of those accounts are filtered through a modern feminist perspective. The focus is usually on women who felt trapped or unhappy, not on the women who were content with their lives. And even then some content nowadays some women back then who were satisfied are portrayed as being unhappy where as in reality they were satisfied bc it was the norm for thousands of years.So I don't think it's fair to assume those stories represent everyone's experience at the time. Gender equalities good though, dont get me wrong.
