Short chain of logic
Here's my theory.
1) Kids are hardwired to get things from their parents, kind of like ducks.
2) Parents have been immoral because they came from a dark time I will refer to as "The 60s"
3) Kids take this attitude from their parents
4) They conclude that, since their parents are immoral, morality is therefore an impossible pipe-dream and there was never a time where people were moral or had any control over their sexuality.
5) This is aided by a rather poor sense of history, eg people thinking that Gandalf took down the Spanish Armada with a little of his pimp action
