I could be wrong, but I think that it will be important later, and the next generation will be more moral (for lack of a better word...)
Look at the 'free love' period in the late 60s and early 70s. Contrast that with the late 80s and early 90s. I dunno who was having the free love during that time frame, but it wasn't me or any of my friends. If nothing else, we were all scared to death of the 70s legacy...Herpes, AIDS, etc etc etc.
Contrast that again with the hook-up mentality of today. People - girls and boys, both, will eventually get tired of either being or having disposable sex partners. Add this to the fact that STDs (including AIDS, and believe-it-or-not, Syphillis) are making a comeback, and I think that the next generation is primed for a little more purity.
At least, that's what I think.
and as i once heard it said... "those that are very comfortable with their sexuality, whether gay or hetero - and sexually free, are usually the biggest screw-ups you'll meet."
