If we're going to correlate, we can do it with with obesity as well.
In 2018 "obesity prevalence was [...] 21.2% among 12- to 19-year-olds." [0] according to the CDC. That's one out of 5 being obese, not overweight. And it has more than tripled since the 70's [1].
And then we start blaming the "evil screens" for people not finding themselves attractive.
