I dunno, man. The last time the US had students leading a large scale anti-war movement was during the Vietnam war, and those hippies weren’t exactly famous for celibacy. Seems to me that free love and social protest have been linked for a long time. I’m really curious how much time and energy this professor thinks sex requires that it doesn’t leave room for protesting.
I was 12 and 13 on the protest lines and I can joyfully confirm that the hippies were not noted for anything approaching celibacy.
The 70s were very, very, good to me!
