Why is it I keep encountering this connection between sexual perversion and concern for chr*stians-of-color? Are they considered honorary atheists or something?
Blame the WWII veterans. They returned from the war and were utterly revolted by the status quo. Many of them wanted to go to college, get married, get a good job and raise a family, and they were in no mood to be told what others expected of them, especially when those expectations were contrary to what they had been fighting for. And the people trying to order them around had no legitimacy to do so.
So blue laws started being overturned, because they wanted to drink and not be told they couldn’t. And they wanted to go to the church of their choice, and not be discriminated against for doing so. And they wanted to be married to someone they wanted to marry, not someone picked for them.
And they were sick and tired of blacks being discriminated against. While it is rarely mentioned, most of the US was segregated until the vets came home, and by the time of MLK and the Civil Rights movement it was on its last legs and confined to just the South.
Likewise, by the time the “sexual revolution” was official, in much of the US it had already happened. Women who worked in the defense industry during the war liked working a lot, and were very upset when they were fired because there was a man available who wanted their job. The idea of going back to what they had been was intolerable to them.
Kinsey was lying through his teeth, and it didn’t matter, because that was what the public wanted to hear.
It's their running theme; they want to make the parallel between slavery and homosexuality/marriage. That the two are completely unrelated is irrelevant to them, they seek to put the association on the emotional-level and hijack the social-programming of "slavery is bad."
