But one is constrained to admit that social attitudes towards sex have altered ... except in the minds of the Leave-it-to-Beaverites and most of the muslim world.
Sex is part of evolution ... no, scratch that, sex is evolution. It's how we got to be here ... all of us. Maybe someone from a rubberless coupling in Priestly Clough

I agree-attitudes are more leaning toward not caring who has sex with who and what the result is, nowadays but people still eat/sleep/fornicate the same as ever-we're still driven by the need to reproduce.
Unfortunately now 'Survival of the most fitting' means we have produced a load of humans who fit perfectly to the 'Let's all have lots of babies and not work' environment...

Your old road is
Rapidly agin'
Please get out of the new one
If you can't lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin'.

I'm thinking along similar lines to Eric here, otherwise where did the phrase 'shotgun wedding come from'? I can assure you that back then lots of girls were just as willing to experiment without being forced. Perhaps it was a hormonal thing? We and they at a certain age as the yoof of today are still doing, couldn't resist the smell of damp soil and grass stains on various parts of the body, ah yes, the happy memories of the out door life in all weathers without the need for fleece lined jackets from Bolton.
Those were the days.

That smiley has made my day! Lol I ALMOST said something similar about the 'Missed chances' then I didn't but turns out somebody said it for me

Peer pressure's always been the same too-teens want to outdo their peers, shock value, growing up it's all new and so so attractive.
