BS. The only difference between now and before is people talk about sex more now.

Not even remotely true. The big difference is that young people are much more promiscuous. Whereas members of my generation might have married with a couple dozen partners between them, college kids regularly report approaching 3 digit numbers. That and fewer of them are growing up and getting married after sowing those wild oats.

Good Lord! I have dated 7 women in my life and I married two of them. Times have really changed. I just thought that people were bragging about their conquests rather than remaining discreet.

Sorry, it is true.
I lived the 60’s, my grandmother who was a flapper, thought the whole issue on free love was funny.
She said the 60’s were child’s play compared to the 20’s.
Sexual promiscuity has always been around, now everyone talks about and exaggerates it.
There are may studies that demonstrate that people are not nearly as promiscuous as they pretend/claim to be.
