More of the 18-21 year old guys I know now are doing that while in undergrad. Young guys now are way more conservative. I know one kid that doesn’t even like hot lesbians in movies. Told one of them that college was the time in his life he’d be around the most available women before they’re all broken and used up and SSRI’d. He’s doing his best.
Depends on what school you go to as well I suppose. I went to a top tier school so we talk about that all the time and it does connect you to various folks that meet a certain standard. Not sure how much that holds up for the folks currently in them. If it’s not one of those colleges, I wouldn’t recommend people go for most things. Still working on kids myself, mostly wishing I’d had it done earlier but again, alternative is unlimited sex so it’s not like I’m suffering on that front.
Yeah, I did build up more of my connections later, so I can see at least some value in networking at a big school. It's odd for me too having been pretty quiet as a kid to now working in a role where a lot of what I do requires some degree of social interaction. I tell the young people I know, start with learning something that someone will actually pay you to do, and go from there. If that requires college, fine, if it doesn't then fine, and almost never is there any reason for college debt. I owe a ton of where I am to starting my life not sitting on 100k of alcoholic boozefest experience with a piece of paper attached.
I would agree that a lot of young guys are more conservative. I can't really put my finger on any guy I know in the 15-25 group that is just bat shit crazy. I'm sure they exist and I deal solely with "flyover country", but most of what I know are pretty decent conservative guys.
I’m in deep blue territory and even I don’t know young progressive guys in the bluest of areas, though I’m sure they are around. Graduated without debt myself, so that’s another consideration too for school. 300k for $10 more an hour is a net loss.
