We need to watch out: sex as a transaction seems to be normalizing in today's teens. I've heard a very clever young woman say she's sick of seeing money stress and wants to be a trophy wife, while another openly states she intends to have an easy college life by being a sugar baby. These are kids from upper middle class communities where sexual equality has been assumed for as long as I can remember- or so I thought. Meanwhile Duke student Belle Knox is glamorizing/normalizing participation in porn and we've already seen the first victim (UW student Alyssa Funke) who thought she'd found a source of quick money being videoed having sex with strangers and ended up committing suicide which may or may not have been related to cyberbullying from previous classmates. Seems to me it wasn't perfect in the old days, but most of us had it easy compared to what's going on now including the inability to live anything down once it's on the internet.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
