Did you watch Part One of VH1's "Sex: The Revolution" documentary last night? Or are you simply relying on us to feed you bite-sized clips that will allow you to somehow absorb the meaning and context of the 20th century's sexual revolution all your own? (Hey, it's worth a shot.) If you watch tonight, you'll get more insight into the swinging single lifestyle, how birth control forever changed the landscape of wild, unprotected fucking, and how the dirty, smelly hippies are responsible for the whole thing. We just knew that somehow we'd be able to blame everything on them.

Thanks for the reminder.
This documentary is really interesting. It's pretty similar to the documentary they did on the war on drugs: the same people for interviews, the same timeframe. They even explain how the fight for sex rights related to the drug revolution & the civil rights fight. Very good stuff.
