There was a time when having sex with a woman meant a wedding ring, a court ship or at the very least, dinner. But social psychologists say those days are quickly coming to an end as women become more promiscuous, Yahoo Shine reports.

Other things that are said to have contributed to these changes include gender equality, birth control and internet porn.

Other things that are said to have contributed to these changes include gender equality, birth control, internet porn, and fat chicks. You can't see the fat chicks for the fat chicks. And Ima thinking they think like me. If at first you don't succeed, lower your standards...

Similar story (maybe the inspiation for this one) from a couple of weeks ago. Perhaps a new MSM theme.

Pinging the expert...

[Slings and Arrows]

I do believe you’ve nailed it...

...bad choice of words, huh?

BTW, I grew up in the late 60s when the price of sex was ZERO as in “free love”. Maybe these idiot journalists should check with their grandparents for some pointers.

LOL

[Slings and Arrows]

Very tasteful.

Between the “free sex” era of the 60’s, movies and TV causal sex (sex predominates most movies and TV), what do we expect? The era of virginal marriage is a thing of the past. In most TV programs, sex between unmarried couples seems to be the norm. Nobody just dates, they sleep together. This is what is projected on the youth of today.

Act now and we'll throw in gonorrhea and crab lice at no extra charge!

Yep! I remember those days! It didn’t help me get laid one bit!

BS. The only difference between now and before is people talk about sex more now.

Yeah, we now have 13-year-old girls happily swapping around pictures of their privates on their phone-cameras to their schoolmates.

The culture has taken mind-boggling declines lately that most people haven’t even mentally registered yet.

Now I don’t know why but that just cracked me up. It’s funny everytime I read it. I have this picture of Sam Kinison saying it in my head.

Yeah but prices change - anybody know what the going rate is now?

[EEGator]

Two bits.

OK, Ok, ok...you know what? The only reason I didn't screw every available girl in high school and college (and there were many) was because of my upbringing.
