It is a great article, but I think you miss the degree to which academic administrators use the somnambulant woke to help them fire faculty, particularly older faculty who are more expensive. Tenure helps us to survive but in the end we are vulnerable. So in academia woke is much more a cynical tool of universities than an authentic progressive movement. Universities now are extremely top heavy and all those administrative drones and mini-deans need to make a place for themselves by reducing faculty pay and actual faculty with tenure. Oh, and the sad news about our so-called sexual revolution, well we talked about it, but we did not have tinder. The licentious nature of your generation is beyond us old Woodstocker's wildest wild and crazy dreams.
"In this survey study of US adults from 2000 to 2018, sexual inactivity increased among men aged 18 to 24 years and 25 to 34 years and women aged 25 to 34 years during the study period, with the increase among men mainly occurring among unmarried individuals. Men with lower income and with part-time or no employment were more likely to be sexually inactive, as were men and women who were students."
No no...What have I been taught and not applied. I just believed all their crazy anecdotes and presumed it was representative of an entire generation. My error not theirs.

My students are clearly liars..... Dude!
What have they been taught about the value of anecdotal evidence?
