A conversation elsewhere got me thinking about Freedom, especially the Freedom To Say No.

The Sexual Revolution was said to "Free People" from Sexual Morals but what really happened was that it took away (from young women) the Freedom To Say No to a person wanting to have "Sex With Them".

The message became "if you don't want to have sex with anybody who asked, then there is Something Wrong With You".

IE The Sexual Revolution was created by 15 year old males.

Of course, the Sexual Predators just loved it.

There have always been Sexual Predators (male and female) but the Sexual Revolution said that the Prey couldn't object. :mad:

On the other hand -- I was once in a class in college with a man whose notion of freedom was to maximize his choices. As in, he had decided in advance to always choose the route that would ensure he had as many more such "choices."
