I guess my point is, because they are from a different era..the Woodstock era when our nation was bringing sex out of the closet so to speak, they look at whole sexual revolution thing a little differently than we do.

The development of the swinger mentality and experimentation and all this other sex stuff, it's great for making our culture more accepting of sex. But it also could explain why the country's divorce rate is ~50%, higher than it's ever been.
I applaud the hippies for making everyone comfortable enough with sex to make Jenna Jameson a legitimate star. But that doesn't mean I'd want to go incorporating that kind of thinking into my life. Sexual freedom is nice, but some things need to be held sacred to me. I couldn't share my wife with anyone, not even to watch her kiss one of her female friends. It'd be hot and everything, but it would bother me too much. In the end the relationship is the most important thing.
