60's GENERATION AND FREE LOVE

I was raised in the fifties and early sixties when delaying sex until marriage was definitely the expected norm. Some people surely did not stick to the norm but many people did and the STD problem was not what it is today. Our media was more discreet and sex wasn't shown graphically in the media. As I recall it the hippies did not like this situation. They demanded open sexuality and were very rude and vocal about it.

I remember riding home from school with my sister who had become a hippie in 1965. She had a wonderful new acquaintance in the car (he was later arrested for spray painting the whole school with graffiti and ended up in jail). He was a very angry young man and thought he was real smart (weren't all hippies real smart?) all knowing, kind of like the "progressives" of today. Well as it turns out, he did know something I didn't.

I was 15 years old, and he was discussing masturbation in our car. I didn't know what that was and he jumped on me about how I needed to get educated etc. etc. I was mortified. Now I'm 61 and I know who  the smart one was. It certainly wasn't him!

So the hippies introduced all the college students to living together as they slept with whomever in public parks and at raucous concerts. My, weren't they smart?Abortions and STDs went through the roof.

Fast forward to today. Now they are so concerned about this STD problem that they caused that they have come up with a solution. Teach more open sexuality in school without parents approval. Do you think they really are trying to reduce STDs or are they still on the same path for more open sexuality and acceptance of the gay life style as normal- maybe even recruitment?

It's astounding how they argue in the national media that they have the right to do this. I'll bet if you stopped a parent in the parking lot when they dropped their child off for school and asked them why they brought their child to school the answer would not be to learn about sex.

I'll bet the parent would expect the school to teach reading, writing and math. Who do these people think they are? Do they think they are some kind of gods that know more than parents and can use the schools for any purpose they want? The only answer to this is for parents to realize how bad this is for their children and to put a stop to it NOW.
