I'd agree with GoodBob here. "Overall kids growing up these days do have it better. It's just different."
The truth is that all of the progress comes at a very high price, too. As it usually does.
The complexities of virtually all kinds that the young guys are facing these days are positively mind-boggling. In all honesty, an Average Joe may have lesser problems in hooking up for casual sex because of all the progress, both societal and technological of the past couple of decades. But when it comes to establishing himself, and having a decent life, our Average Joe has hit on very hard times.
To quite some extent, tolerance and technological progress are here for all of us. The basics such as a decent job, housing, career advancement, etc. require both far more talent and effort than in the past, leaving quite a few to fend off for themselves on the verge of being practically destitute.
