Epidemic or Clickbait?

[awty]

Loneliness is a thing in our society.  Connecting via a forum like this can be positive, but isn't the same as a real community.

I believe that men, in general, are worse than women at forming close relationships beyond a small group of people.  That can lead to loneliness.

Is the topic of "male loneliness" clickbait?  Perhaps, but for those experiencing it, it can lead to reduction in mental and physical health.

My suggesting the thread is clickbait is more about calling it an epidemic.
