By 16 today, the average kid has had more ‘experiences’ of ALL types than many of our era has had to date. There is no innocence left. Being thoroughly jaded at such an early age leaves little hope for their future.

Man, isn't that the truth. I try to keep my kids innocent enough, but there is lot they're bombarded with today, and we have no choice but to tend to explain/prepare our kids for it.

I had a recent conversation with someone regarding just how ‘available sex is today for anyone that wants it and why porn/sexual fetishes ect gets more and more extreme as time goes by.

Even in the 80s, we had to work for it. The romantacized notion of the ‘thrill of the hunt’ was still quite real. But today, it’s just ‘friends with benefits’ and literally less of a big deal than calling someone to hit a show or concert was back then. Today it just a text message “Wanna FXXX later?”

And that’s considered 100% normal. By 16 YOs. Literally. Absolutely no emotion attached. Purely self infulgent physicality.

Now granted, I had my fun, but there was ‘fun’ to be had. Today? Not from what I’m told. Purely a mechanical act and the ‘fun only comes in with seeing just how far one can degrade the other. Gee...can’t understand why things are as they are now....
