Welcome to Steemit! You nailed your introductory post! Although what you wrote had some colorful meatphors I don't think you had to use the nsfw tag (just my opinion though).

I'm in my 30's too and I do worry about the younger generation and them never being told, "No." Thinking they can get whatever they want in life. I don't think it's everyone though. The people I know are good people, and the guys respect women. So don't give up hope on humanity. I think when you hang out in a dark world, it's hard to see the good sometimes. It's also part of the culture too. Certain aspects of society are pushed to the fringes because it's either illegal (not necessarily immoral), taboo, or just not openly talked about. So the people that are involved in these areas might be heavily weighted toward "abnormal" or "sick".
