这就是为什么现在大家都单身，
男人也不再努力了。这里是“老
鼠天堂”，一项上世纪
六十年代的科学实验。
他们为老鼠创造了一个
完美世界，有无限的食物、
安全环境，而且没有天敌。
一开始，他们放入四只雌鼠和
四只雄鼠，
让它们自由繁殖。种群数量爆
炸式增长，
从几百只到上千只。
然后，奇怪的事情发生了，
它们不再交配。在四年之内，
它们就灭绝了。但是，为什么？
科学家认为，原因是社交互
动过载。就像现在人类
在社交媒体上的状态一样。
它们每天二十四小时都在和
成千上万只老鼠互动。
过度刺激、过度竞争社会地位，
导致它们失去了建立亲密关系、
交配和抚养后代的能力。
许多雄性变成了所谓的“美丽
一族”。他们对雌性失去
了兴趣。他们整天只打理自己，
完全退缩因为在这种混乱中他们
再也竞争不过了。
而雌性随后也对雄性失去
了兴趣。所以没有交配，
大家都没生后代就死光了。
自从2010年有了智能手机，
人类也生活在同样的社交互
动过载中。24/7的地位竞争，
和成千上万其他人相比收入和生
活方式。外貌被拿去对
照不可能达到的标准。许多年轻
人干脆选择退出。
历史上第一次年轻人做爱次数比
父母少。
30%的30岁以下男性一年
没有发生过性行为。
孤独流行病给我们的打击
比任何病毒都重。
你知道那些老鼠是没法把
这个关掉的。但是你…你可以。

This is why everyone is single and men stopped trying. This is the Mouse Paradise, a scientific experiment from the 1960s. This is the Mouse Paradise, a scientific experiment from the 1960s. They made a perfect world for mice with unlimited food, safety, and no predators. They made a perfect world for mice with unlimited food, safety, and no predators.
In the beginning, they placed four females and four males and let them multiply. The population exploded. Hundreds, then thousands. The population exploded. Hundreds, then thousands. Then something strange happened. They stopped mating. Then something strange happened. They stopped mating.
And within four years, they were extinct. And within four years, they were extinct. According to scientists, the reason was social interaction overload. Just like humans on social media today. Just like humans on social media today.
They were in 24/7 interaction with thousands of others. Too much stimulation, too much competition for social status, and this led them to lose the ability to form bonds, to mate and raise their young. Many males became so-called "the beautiful ones". They lost interest in females.
They just groomed themselves all day and withdrew completely because they could not compete in this chaos anymore. And the females followed by losing interest in males. And the females followed by losing interest in males. So, no mating, and they all just died without having babies.
Since 2010 smartphones, humans are living the same social interaction overload. 24/7 status competition, income and lifestyle comparison with thousands of others. Physical looks to impossible standards. Physical looks to impossible standards.
And many young people just choose to withdraw. For the first time in history, young people are having less sex than their parents. 30% of men under 30 had no sex for a year. 30% of men under 30 had no sex for a year. Loneliness epidemic hits us harder than any virus could.
Loneliness epidemic hits us harder than any virus could. You know, the mice couldn't turn this off. But you... you can.
