From Tucker's Facebook:
The average marriage age in this country is around thirty. It was in the early twenties not that long ago. People aren't getting married, and maybe you think that's a great thing. Certainly if you're a democratic politician, you think that's great because that just means more voters for you. But if you're a normal person who cares about human happiness and thriving and children and continuing your country and civilization, that's a bad thing. So the question is, how did it happen?
If you talk to young people, it's not exactly clear what the answer is, but you notice immediately that the relationship between men and women, boys and girls, is broken. I mean contemptuous of each other, suspicious of each other, at some point dismissive of each other. That's really what you pick up. There's hostility. Men feel hostile to women, women feel hostile to men. Could there be anything sadder than that?
Since men and women are designed for each other, it's hard to become fully complete without the other. That's not even a theological point. It's a biological point. It's true for all species. Male and female, that distinction is encoded in all of nature, in plants and animals. It's in the universe, you might say. It's just a fact. And you can ignore it and pretend that a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle. You can come up with any slogan you want. You can externalize your childhood trauma in any way you want and write all the books you want about how dad is bad, but you can't get around nature because you didn't create it. You don't make the rules. You either live by them and thrive, or you ignore them and are destroyed. That's the choice that we face. Period.
Our society has systematically, knowingly or notit's hard to know exactly how much was intentionalpoisoned the relationship between young men and young women. And they've done it in a bunch of different ways. We could go on for hours on this topic, but the results tell the story. They're not getting married because they don't like each other, they don't know how to communicate with each other, and above all, they think they don't need each other. And that's a lie. It's a lie. So anyone who is promoting that view is at fault. And when you're powerful and have a platform, a megaphone, when other people are watching you and taking cues from you, when you have the power to convince other people of something and to live a certain way. Boy, you're guilty. That's your fault.
