The Victorians understood the concept of sexual sublimation. As to men waiting to 35 (or 27, as the most recent simulation gave), patriarchy is fairly effective at keeping a lid on young men's hormones. Look at China, where 90% of young men are sexless Gamma males. This is structural; once they hit a certain age, they become alpha assholes, and the society supports them in it. The patriarchy effect works across species, check out what happened when mature male elephants were added to a herd of young male elephants that were running around raping the females, etc. http://thesestonewalls.com/gordon-macrae...s-and-men/
It was once fairly normal to consider the young adulthood stage for men to be one where men "made their place in the world" ... getting a career/business/trade going and establishing themselves financially to the point where they could demonstrate ability to support a family. Not all succeeded. For some, there was a military career ... some would be successful, some wouldn't come back. It's a very different mindset than young men wearing flashy clothes and dancing at nightclubs to peacock themselves to young women and get laid. There are big frame differences at which the feminists have been chipping away very deliberately for decades. Of course young men still had sex drive in those situations, but they didn't get laid all the time and when they did it was with a different type of woman than the type they would consider marriage material.
