One of the least known, most important facts about life in Latin America: most people can turn to police for order & security, but 1 in 6 are also governed by gangs and criminal groups—that’s 77–101 million Latin Americans under some kind of gang rule.

Why is intimate partner violence so high in Latin America? My theory: the region is extremely violent, which is brutalizing. Men learn to act “tough”.

When a regime loses legitimacy, its ideology also takes a battering.

Living in niche communities, it’s easy to blinker ourselves to global cultural diversity Here a Saudi woman sees a man and woman walking together, she cautions them, reminding them of the Akhira, and God’s final judgement. This is consistent with Arab-barometer survey responses

Last year, when I said “it’s the rise of singles”, there was so much push back from people who stressed economics, eg house prices. But maybe there are some coupling frictions…

Why is your dating life so disappointing? Are young people becoming more neurotic, less agreeable? While alternative sources of entertainment are getting better? @jburnmurdoch 👇

The rise of time spent online and accompanying decline in face-to-face interactions mean less social policing of bad behaviours like “ghosting”. See @_alice_evans here: ggd.world/p/why-is-onlin… If you’re low-C on the internet, you don’t pay the price. Not immediately, at least...

Population decline doesn't mean cheaper houses, more amenities or better services. Actually, young people may leave declining places - hurting local government finances and services, While primary cities become crowded and expensive. JFV for the win.

39% of Indian Americans celebrate Valentine's Day! This is precisely what my theory predicts: When Hindus and Sikhs move abroad, jati breaks down, as they do business with a range of others, so arranged marriages wane. Instead, they celebrate Valentine's!! 💝💕❤️‍🔥🫶💌🥰😍
