Young Adults Don't Want To Go Out Anymore

My generation shows anxiety, stunted growth, and a lack of responsibility. Psychologists blame helicopter parenting, and ironically, the decline in clubbing is a prime example.

Go to club: Spend $300, get rejected by every girl, get into fight with random guy, get hit on by gays.
Stay home: Eat and sleep. Oh i wonder why people perfer this.

I mean, if clubbing culture does end with Gen Z, is that really a bad thing?

90s clubs : Dancing/socialising.
20s clubs : Flexing/selfies.

I like having conversations. Not earaches and screaming.

Not going to the club, does not mean they don't go out.
Clubs are not the only place to go.

Brett didn't talk about biggest factor: 80-90% of clubs' paying customers are men who's looking to meet women, but in today's generation most people meet online.

Economy is in the gutter + gen Z raised on screens + men don't want to simp for 304s anymore = nightlife dead

Because there’s no point. I’m single, no friends, and generally don’t have any reason to “go out” on Friday or Saturday nights

Alot of us prefer a private setting. Less weirdos. Some of us 30 to 40 year olds rejected the club culture in the 2010s.

To be fair, everything is expensive now. And 1-2 years of lockdown made us used to staying home.

As someone living in CA, I feel increasingly like existing is illegal. I have been stopped by the police for hanging out with my friends in my parked car because it was "suspicious". I have been stopped by the police for leaving the movie theater at midnight because being out at midnight is suspicious. I have been stopped by the police for drunkenly waiting on the sidewalk for an Uber to pick me up for the bar because they thought I was going to attempt to drive. All of this makes it feel unsafe to go out and live life. I am 25 and I have been stopped by the police 16 times in my adult life. Not ticketed or arrested because I was not doing anything wrong, but it definitely makes me want to just stay home where I feel safer.

My kids are highschoolers .. there are no places for them to go & hang. Malls are not the place, arcades are no longer a thing or cheap. The other day, they decided to meet at Pinstack and they couldn't afford it. Food was like $30 a person! For stupid pizza & a coke! Unlike the generation before, they elite have taken everything from us. Movies, games, pizza hut, stores for teens, clothes, everything is gone

Hello young folks, millennial here. I applaud y’all tbh. I have many friends in their late 20s/early 30s who still party like they’re 21. It gets old very quick and a lot of my friend’s whole personality is still partying and clubbing. Good for y’all to appreciate the quality of other things in life.

Going out SUCKS. It's too loud. It's too late. I'm tired from working all day. The people are shallow and one dimensional. Everyone is just there trying to get laid. You're not going to meet anyone special or have a significant spark like all the movies try to make it appear. It's just not fun, and I always sat around thinking I'd much rather be at home.

Billionaires and the Government: “Make more kids cause the birth rate is declining.”

Meanwhile the Cost of Living: 📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈

[pummypoomy]

Prices have skyrocketed so much to the point where people don't even know the meaning of what's 'affordable' anymore.

It’s not just clubs, it’s outside period.
I recently got asked “If someone from the 80s suddenly got transported to the modern age, what would surprise them the most?”
Thinking about it, I realized…it’s the lack of people outside.

[ryanepperson]

Nothing is cheap anymore. Brunch? $15. Lunch? $20. Coffee? $10. Parking fees at my 'free' public park are $5. Yeah, by themselves these don't look like much, but add that up across a month. Going to do something fun outside the house a few times a week? MINIMUM $300. I got bills to pay.

Hello, Gen Z here. My immediate thoughts are $10 for a drink at the bar, $25 for a movie ticket, $20 to grab a bite to eat with friends, Amazon makes buying things way easier than the mall. Why would I do any of those things when I could be safe at home, watching movies on Netflix or other subscription service, make food at home, and buy things from my phone which then gets shipped to my home. I can do everything from the safety and comfort of home for significantly cheaper.

I'm GenX and let me tell you about the "evolution" of a local watering hole down near the beach where I live. I went there a lot in the late 90s and early 2000s. It was perfect for young people and students. It was large, indoor/outdoor, pool tables, and it was cheap. Sure, the carpet was worn out and they had plastic chairs and taped up barstools. But, as I said, it was cheap! Domestic beers were $2, pitchers were $5. If you went on a Taco Tuesday, you could literally cover your whole night, including dinner, for $20. The place was packed and it was a great place to meet girls.

Fast forward to the 2020s and they completely overhauled the place. Fancy furniture, fancy lighting, bespoked bar. And now it was $8-$12 for a "craft beer", $14 -$17 cocktails, $50 shots of reserve Taquila, food became expensive, VIP bottle service....you get the idea. So now it is not a great place for broke college students. Young people see all this wealth and bling on TV reality shows and social media and they want that. It was no longer cool to hang out at my old dive. But now they can't afford it at all. Catch 22.
