- watwut 6y agoThe reason was that there was no pill and she would get pregnant and unable to earn money with baby. Which means baby is problem of everybody suddenly.
- ikeyany 6y agoThe sexual revolution did nothing other than allow women the privileges that men already had. If the result of such equality is that people are forming relationships less often than before, then the problem lies in the behaviors of both men AND women, not in the decision to allow women bodily and sexual autonomy in the first place.
- codingslave 6y agoBut the truth is most men never had any privilege. They could get married and get in a monogamous relationship. If they went out and pursued women causally, it wasn't working just like it isn't working now. Its a complete myth that men held the cards. The same high caste men that held the cards back then still hold the cards now.
