This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

And yet they had more premarital sex than millenials/gen z
Edit: can't find the source where I had heard that. Maybe not true. This study shows the rates are lower than for millennials, but close. https://www.bgsu.edu/ncfmr/resources/data/family-profiles/hemez-nonmarital-sex-by-age-25-boomers-millennials-fp-17-11.html
I was just making a joke, but don't doubt that you're right. It's a tough thing to measure as people aren't always honest. Like if somebody took a poll in 1986 asking folks if they smoked weed, paranoia might cause smokers to say no
Oh, totally. Just like to bring up that our grandparents/great grandparents were getting nasty even before widespread use of birth control, etc. Young folks today are having a lot less sex, or so I've heard, largely due to difficulties finding partners, stress, etc.
