Umbrella Feminisms Battle at Morals Fence

It may have leveled gender issues, but it had sent another message. A scewed message of many women believing it was a okay to do the same wrongs as unfaithful men. Women began to plan their sex lives in the same way that unfaithful men did and thus created both genders having a morality problems. It became common place for nonmarital sexual activity to occur and that information on transmitted disease and pregnancy prevention was the only thing talked about in schools.

This takes us back to the idea from 1960's which was to level the playing field of finding more faithful suiters. The idea of morals in peoples values is essential to keeping a family together and avoiding divorce.

The Battle at Morals Fence is to help people be more monogomous for long lasting relationships as well as to be wiser. Since it is a revisitation of the 1960's it also attempts to raise awareness for people born during that time period to look for longer relationships, since Sexually Transmitted Diseases are increasing the most for those born during those days of the Swinging Sixties. When people have more partners there is more STDs, when people have less partners there are less STDs. Many people these days have protection because of the 1980's AIDs scare.
