    Moral maturity corresponds to appearance. Zoomers are almost all infantile, many of them even at 40 years old will look like old boys.
    A hard life with a lot of responsibility, as well as force majeure like a big war, makes people grow up earlier.

    They compared Generation X young men to this crop, and the latter had less grip strength, lower fertility levels, and lower testosterone levels. It looks like they really are victims of a war....the war on males.

    Oh, yeah. I should have said that today's crop of young men had lower sperm counts than we did, and we likely had lower sperm counts than the Boomers did, and they likely had lower sperm counts than the Silent Generation did, and they likely had lower sperm counts than the Greatest Generation did, and they....

    I was asked for ID again today (drinking age is 18), so maybe.
    Spoiler!

    One subtle point is almost always ignored - the body develops fully only if all its functions are used for their intended purpose and in due time. Roughly speaking, if a guy at 18 begins to communicate closely with women, and not strangle a snake under porn, then at 25 he will look like a young man, and not like a schoolboy. The disclosure of genetic potential will be more complete.
    Most likely, past generations had sex much more than the current one. Even I remember with nostalgia how easy it was to meet a woman at the age of 18-20, even though I already married for a long time. Among my peers, everyone who wanted it got married without any problems, and quite early. For zoomers things are much more difficult in this regard.

    Things were different with my friends too. They left home before they were 20, which was when I did, and that was the equivalent of 40 today. I think that genes play the main role in whether or not one looks young for their age. If it was down to porn, my friends would have looked much younger than me.

    I think so because they did not have modern cosmetics and plastic surgery. I'm glad I live now to be honest.

    Smoking was more common in the past, so were clothes more fadhionable that would make you appear older.
