Monkeys don’t masturbate in the wild, but they’re widely known to do it in captivity.
I think it’s important to realize we’re in captivity in the modern world. Nihilism and anti-natalism are part and parcel.

Perhaps, but I have yet to see anyone make any suggestion toward reforming marriage to better fit our new reality.
There's also the fairly strong possibility that they don't want a new reality and instead are doing everything that they can do to return to the old ways. Cognitive dissonance can take a huge mental toll. A surprising amount of the global population flat-out doesn't like to learn and adapt to changing circumstances. 🤷♂️
Also, my suggestions are actually a return to (Germanic) tradition, focused on property ownership, away from the modernist system of income redistribution, based upon monetary debasement.
I think this has become so normalized in our societies, that we don't even question how crazy the whole setup is.
