What absolute dorks in my mentions trying to preserve their mythology of the 1950s in which people acted like they did in the pictures of the period (which were designed to present an "aspirational purity" which did not exist in reality).
The same is true today dumbies-- the "aspirational mythos" of our time is one in which "everyone is fucking & it's cool"-- these things are depictions, not realities, & the depictions are based on desires for recognition-- this is how people "want to be seen"-- not as they are.
In the 50s people were scared about how much teens were fucking! It was an incredible moral panic! This isn't the case now. Media now is encouraging it because it's not actually happening. The real moral panic is kids doing xans & playing fortnite & beating off to weird shit.
Can you think of anything LESS arousing than the suburban Karen explaining Dildos & anal to their teenage kids? Sex Ed is meant to STOP FUCKING from happening! This is why you're taught that you're going to get AIDs if you fuck your Prom Date.
Modern Sex Ed is literally proscribing "masturbating to porn" as a "healthier alternative" to "dangerous sex." This is the true face of our era. Such a thing was totally uncognizable in the 1950s. It's an extremely contemporary pathology.
Teenage Pregnancy is the greatest taboo of our era for a reason. It's a totally at odds with the proscribed Life Path of "settling down in your thirties" after "accumulating social capital" at university & "exploring your sexuality"-- all of this is against procreating.
"Think about what it will do to your economic prospects Becky! You shouldn't get attached to boys-- you should acclimatize yourself to random hookups. You should think of Sex like you think of Food. Also, you have an eating disorder lol oops"
Much is written about the incel-- not much is written about the more widely accurate pattern-- which is the "devastating breakup of the adolescent pair-bond relationship which creates sexual pathologies in both partners, destroying their ability to trust"
Modern Sex Ed trains people to consider sex a purely transactional passionless affair-- a consumer option-- like "going to the movies" or "going to a restaurant"-- it's just another "part of the consumer habit of dating." It's made mundane because it's "safer" that way.
Safer for who? Safer for Capital.
You're much better for Boomer Capital as an atomized "dater" than a man with a wife & kids-- that's an accumulated interest with stakes! Suddenly you'd realize how fucked everything is. They want you to "figure that out" when it's too late!
This is why there is immense social pressure against "marrying young." If you don't "get it"-- you're psyopped & blind to the actual conditions we live within.
