Bentham was not an Epicurean and didn't make a difference between higher and lower pleasures.

This was caused almost entirely by the 90s assault on femininity. Basically capitalism is to blame (keeps wages low, doubles quantity of consumption). Shitty TV sitcoms are also responsibile for creating toxic models that plebs then emulate.

Ironically, Candace Bushnell who wrote Sex and the City, was actually inspired by her long standing obsession with romance novels. Sex and the city was basically a research project that blew up and was turned into a excuse for 90s women to "act like men" although the real objective of the book was to question what had happened to romance in New York.
