The values, morals, beliefs, and perspectives of present generations are different than former generations.

The concept of marriage — relationships have changed. Unfortunately, today's younger generation — which are the products of the former generation — is more so into themselves (selfish) than being empathetic towards others. It’s the result of a “declined moral mindset.” Children are born into it. Society reflects how people think and their perceptions, thus creating how a society of people “act” unto one another.

When people's “moral values” decline — become immoral— immorality defaces the society we live in.

Today’s generation and some of the former “want what they want” — they live in the moment. When you can get what you want — at the moment, there’s no need to commit to anything or anyone?

If you’re born into an existing system where the value of being selfish is valued, you can’t be held accountable if that’s all you know. You think what you think and how you act is normal. Immorality is the role model. It’s what everyone else is doing.

The name of the game is — what can I do you for.

The “what can I do you for” concept is based less on emotions and more on getting satisfied physically with as little commitment as possible?

These days males look for the type of character they can prey upon — females with the “character potential” that will allow them to receive sexual gratification without commitment. Consequently, they (males) become wolves in sheep’s clothing. They cloak themselves in a superficial mask — they lie, cheat, and deceive. Resulting in females - being deceived, lonely, suffering emotionally, broken-hearted, becoming cold-hearted, and constantly seeking to be loved in a world were empathetic, compassionate, benevolent, moral character has faded continues to diminish.

Because of the decline in empathetic, compassionate, benevolent morals and values, older generations either fit in or lose out. I find that most people — in particular males in their fifties — choose to go with the flow of the present generation's mindset of living in the moment without commitment; get what you can get without being responsible or accountable, which in turn produces a society where the — survival of the “de-moral fittest” survive.

Unless things change, the constant moral decline creates a lose-lose situation for everyone.

The new normal is: A selfish non-emotional — What can I do you for?
