“Some of what’s happening is probably economics, because the Great Recession really hit young adults hard,” explained Richard Fry. “But I’m still struggling with the economic explanation, since the labor market for young adults has improved in the last five years, and yet the percentage living with their family is still going up.

    It works. I left skid marks two days after my 21st birthday in 1978.

  3. I wonder if the feminazi attitude and ever-present threat of being accused of rape that drives young men to play video games instead of relationship games has anything to do with it. Plus a guy who lives in his mom’s basement isn’t exactly a great catch.
