From Samuel Green
Sir: A thought-provoking piece by Roger Scruton on the consequences of the sexual revolution. Young women today are under immense pressure to ‘get physical’ in order to secure a potential partner and are then often left dangling at man’s mercy — waiting to see whether it will lead to something more. Meanwhile, the average Joe Bloggs, having made his ‘conquest’, is inevitably ready to move on to greener pastures, and women are left with the prospect of finding new love with the stigma of having had a number of previous partners — hardly a selling point for most self-respecting women. The result is that women today are profoundly unhappy as they are increasingly disempowered. And if women are unhappy, then it goes without saying that men will also end up unhappy.
