Some quotes from "The Sexual State: How Elite Ideologies Are Destroying Lives and Why the Church Was Right All Along" (Jennifer Roback Morse PhD, 2018)

Part One: The Sexual State 

1The Misery of Modern Life 

Dr Morse opens with an intensely powerful quote: The greatest disease in the West today is not TB or leprosy; it is being unwanted, unloved, and uncared for. We can cure physical diseases with medicine, but the only cure for loneliness, despair, and hopelessness is love. There are many in the world who are dying for a piece of bread but there are many more dying for a little love. The poverty in the West is a different kind of poverty—it is not only a poverty of loneliness but also of spirituality. There's a hunger for love, as there is a hunger for God. —Saint Teresa of Calcutta, A Simple Path"

"We have more sex with more people than any society in the history of the world. But we long for intimacy and true friendship. Most of us know there is something deeply wrong with our culture, but we can't quite put our finger on what it is or what to do about it."


2Conflict and Confusion: What Is the Sexual Revolution and How Are People Trying to Deal With It? 

"The Sexual Revolution consists of ideas as well as the policies that put those ideas into practice. The three main ideas of the Sexual Revolution are that a good and decent society should: 
1.separate sex from childbearing: the Contraceptive Ideology; 
2.separate both sex and childbearing from marriage: the Divorce Ideology;
3.eliminate all distinctions between men and women except those that individuals explicitly embrace: the Gender Ideology."

"The Feminist Narrative also approves of many of the changes that result in relationship instability such as the idea that one can leave a relationship at any time for any reason. Their narrative usually includes an allusion to domestic violence. Women are better off being able to leave an abusive marriage without having to give any reasons or evidence. Whether most divorcing couples are abusive, how divorce law actually functioned prior to no-fault divorce, and what secondary problems the no-fault policy might cause are all questions the Feminist Narrative doesn't address."

"The view of sex behind the Liberationist Narrative can be traced back to a German psychiatrist named Wilhelm Reich."

"We're seeing the introduction of...what is called 'intergenerational sex.' What was once called 'pedophilia' and treated as pathological, some people would like to redefine as an orientation all its own, an inborn desire for sex with a younger person. This line of thought minimizes any possible harm to the younger person. It also minimizes the possible harm inherent in relationships with large age differences: power imbalances between the younger and the older, or a tendency toward immaturity on the part of the older person seeking a relationship with a younger person."  ABSOLUTELY HIDEOUS!
