I feel like attributing this to puritanism is really missing the point.

We're living in a world that is growing increasing online, enabling online friends and relationships at the cost of offline ones. The recent covid lockdowns have certainly not helped this feeling of isolation. People are waiting until later in their lives to start being concerned about long-term romantic relationships, marriage, etc.

So you've got these people who are not worrying so much about a partner but really just want to have some buddies they can chill and goof off and etc etc with. And then you go over to media and if a bunch of it is romance stories and no one really has any true friends, only workplace relationships and romantic relationships, of course this audience is going to be disappointed
