In Japan this exodus from sex is so prevalent there's even a term for it: Sekkusu Shinai Shokogun, or "Celibacy Syndrome".

A lot of observers have even blamed dating sims, saying it draws young people away from the real thing. 

Most likely this is caused by a number of things and not just one. However, the dating sim reminded me of one thing, which, based on observations on media and social media, it's getting more common for relationships being considered as games that you're supposed to win somehow.

Oh I agree that something like this would be caused by multiple factors. Nor do I personally think dating sims are primarily to blame, I was merely pointing out this observation as a way to tie in with this forum's primary focus, video games.
