    I was just making a joke, but don’t doubt that you’re right. It’s a tough thing to measure as people aren’t always honest. Like if somebody took a poll in 1986 asking folks if they smoked weed, paranoia might cause smokers to say no

      Oh, totally. Just like to bring up that our grandparents/great grandparents were getting nasty even before widespread use of birth control, etc. Young folks today are having a lot less sex, or so I’ve heard, largely due to difficulties finding partners, stress, etc.
