Oh, I disagree. I do agree that attitude does permeate the advertising industry but it is also prevalent in the public school system. Look how much sex education they promote in school. “Yes kids, do it, but be safe and there will be no consequences.”No. Have you been to a sex ed class in the last 10 years? They basically try to discourage you. "It's a bad idea, here are all the diseases you can get, if you wait it will be better, if you're really desperate please use a condom, they're available from the medical center, here's how you put one on a banana".
Why is it that housing prices have gotten so high in the last 10 to 15 years and young people want the brand new house? I got into my first house (not new. Actually about 60 years old and it was old)by scrimping and taking out a separate loan to afford the down payment. That was 35 years ago. I’m still in that house. The education system tells the students that they deserve the best and guess what, they believe it.
No, but I certainly read what is taught in the public schools.
