It comes out in connection with “The Debate” on news on Tuesday evening. The starting point for the discussion that has taken place over the last few days is an interview with the leader of FpU, Simen Velle, which was published by TV 2 on Friday. In connection with the interview about challenges for young boys in Norway today, Velle also recorded a TikTok video to promote the issue. Simen Velle, leader FpU Photo: news – Today’s sex culture has become “tinder-infected”. That means that a very few men actually have access to all the girls, and most of us guys don’t really get anything at all, he said, among other things there. The lamented Velle thought this was becoming a political problem, and also said that all equality policy has been about uplifting women and has come at the expense of men. When this was shared on TV 2’s TikTok account, there were many reactions. Deputy leader of AUF, Gaute Børstad Skjervø, was among those who reacted. Several women also reacted to the fact that Velle apparently blamed women and the women’s struggle for men “not being allowed to lie down”. StSunniva and Simen Velle had a good tone before the “Debate”.

Therefore, I both apologize and stand for the fact that I naturally have to correct my message, he said on Monday. Researcher: The cost of standing outside higher for men Psychologist Marius Stavang pictured on Tuesday at Marienlyst. Photo: Ksenia Novikova / news On Tuesday, the debate about young men and the dating market is the topic of “The Debate” on news. In this connection, dating researcher Marius Stavang from NTNU supports several of Velle’s claims. – A side effect of women’s liberation is that it is more difficult for men to find a partner. She has not lowered her expectations of his socio-economic position as hers has risen and his has fallen. The result is that more men fall outside her partner preferences, says the psychologist to news. He believes that many men struggle with the fact that they have no sexual contact. – Many men struggle with the fact that fewer men have any sexual contact. It also seems that the emotional cost of staying out of sexual-romantic relationships is higher for men than women, and especially the sexual one, says Stavang. The researcher also states that it is easier for women than men to have sex. – Furthermore, it is far easier for women than men to have sexual contact. He lowers his demands on her for sex, but we don’t see her lower her demands on him. Thus you get the effect that a small number of men have many female partners, while many men have few and some have none. StSunniva: – I have slept with a lot of men Influencer and comedian Sunniva Tillson, better known as StSunniva on social media, is also in debate with Velle – as the character StSunniva.

Photo: Ksenia Novikova / news She says she and her friends have done their own research. – I have slept with a lot of men, and based on that research I saw a slightly different pattern. Among other things, I would like to say that in the last two years I and my girlfriends have slept with men from low-paid professions, unemployed men, men with mild drug problems, men with slightly more serious drug problems, malnourished men, overnourished men. And of all of them, 95 percent were visually challenged, or ugly as some call it, says StSunniva. – The nice thing about living in a country with 5 million people is that there are five million people who live different lives. And what you prefer in bed, in the bedroom or with a lover, it is certainly different from what others prefer. I think that carries very little weight in a debate like this, replies Velle. Velle: – A social challenge The FpU leader emphasizes that he does not think feminists are the problem. – There are many reasons why childless people, usually single people, are a societal challenge. You can talk about mental health, about the birth rate, but I think the most important point here is that when a number of young people are aware of a challenge, and they are quite clear about what they believe is the basis of the challenge, that does not mean that I think feminists are the problem. In no way. It is the policy we have led up to now that is the problem, says Velle. SU: – Puts the blame on girls Leader in socialist youth, Synnøve Kronen Snyen, believes it is a problem that Velle’s TikTok video presented it as if it is because of equality and the women’s struggle that this is a problem today. – It is not women’s fault that society is the way it is. I think you are blaming girls when that is the perspective you are raising. And I think you have a responsibility as a youth party leader who has a Tiktok that reaches many people and you speak to many young men. Then I think it’s a shame that you blame women, blame the women’s movement and women’s rights. There is no contradiction in talking about the problems faced by boys and the problems faced by women, but they are two different questions, she says.
