I think there is a lot of puritanical type thinking out there, to verging degrees obviously.
I don't think moving to an age of complete sexual equality and sexual freedom is easy either. I think a lot of so called progressive movements, usually for women, actually do more harm than good. To me there is a fundamental hypocrisy in saying all women/men are beautiful, but don't you dare sexualize women's/men's bodies.
Changing attitudes towards sex, sexualization and exploitation are going to happen incrementally. All the while there will be opponents fighting any liberalization to any of the above because they believe the only righteous path is to stymie sexual freedom in the name of decency.
I'm not even sure if I'd want to live in a completely liberated society. Naked people everywhere, everyone having dozens of sexual partners, no allure or mystery to sex. It sounds like the swingers party from the movie A Good Old Fashioned Orgy. That wasn't fun. It was kinda gross.
