1. Unwed mothers.
2.Bankruptcy
3.Taking government aid.
4. "Damn" was about as risque as language could get. Hearing the "F" word was jaw dropping.
5. Interracial marriage.
6. Theft in any form or fashion.
7. Dressing less than modestly. Most of what we see routinely see on the street was reserved for the bed room.
8. Blspehemy.
9. Premarital sex. It may have been going on, but if it was it was kept quiet. Now days, I see the term "hook up" and "F buddies" as commonplace.
10. Overall selfishness. Even in my earlier days, I saw those with misfortune getting taken care of by friends, neighbors, and families. Now days the mindset of "what's in it for me", or "not my problem" are prevalent.
So I don't think that pop music is alone in the wave of sleaze that has overtaken our society. Just one piece.
I would agree that those are areas of moral decline, except for the interracial marriage part.
