There is that, indeed, Msolga.

Lol! I recall when I started a new course at uni, in the seventies, where people did not know me. A lot of the older guys thought I was younger than I was, and tried their "let me liberate you from your sexual repression" line on me, thinking I was a fresher.

It was like shooting sitting ducks down - they certainly found out what I thought of their nasty approach - but I saw a number of the younger girls get really distressed and have a lot of sex they didn't really want - and get very hurt.

Wanting and trying for sex was one thing - but that dumb, manipulative line, designed to make dumb or inexperienced women feel bad if they weren't attracted to you? Ewwwwwwww.

Damn. I was always trying that line the other way 'round.

My mother told me the only difference between her generation and mine was that her's pulled the shades.

Words of wisdom.

Now that there have been a respectable number of years since their passing, I've heard some pretty wild stories about my grandparents when they were younger. And these were some pretty staid folks, in my experience.

(Course, I had known that my grandmother already had a child by a married man when my grandfather proposed, but some of the circumstances around it... Swing, baby, swing!)

The problem was, during the height of the "revolution", that the cowgirls were considered repressed, or something, if they weren't obliging! :wink:

Well actually the "cowgirls" had been off obliging (and being obliged) the city slickers but come the revolution they returned to the men that could fulfill their dreams.

Poor Ray, he had hoped for more intimacy and less sex,
and all you talk about is sex, sex and sex. Wink

Then again, it proves my point: There never was a sexual
revolution. It's always been very prominent in the lives
of mankind, some just turned off the lights.
