“Whether you like it or not, teens have sex, outside of marriage. They always have, and they always will.”
That’s BullCarp. Up until the 60’s it was very rare for teens to have sex out of wedlock. True that there have always been a few sluts but they were the exception. Now after 50 years of the lefty mantra that teen sex is unavoidable it has become the rule.
That’s really not very accurate. Even the term ‘shotgun wedding’ came from before the 60’s
No. In Post-WWII America, it was quiet, but happened. You just never saw the results. A girl would “go stay with relatives” for a year or so, then return.
Just because it wasn’t open and clearly visible, doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. Recall the push in the 60s for birth control access and abortion.
In “ye goode olde days” we still had the infamous “backroom abortions”. . .
That's because for most of recorded history teens had sex IN wedlock. And it was usually young girls with older men. Social norms may change but human biology doesn't.
I have a couple of former co-workers (now in their 70s) who used to tell stories endlessly about their teenage sexcapades back in the mid-1950s. Some were with the local “bad girls” and others were with the daughters of prominent citizens (the mayor, judges, etc.) I don't know exactly when the “sexual revolution” started, but it was apparently well underway before the 1960s.

Maybe you. Teens have been having sex since caveman days.
