An important aspect of the ebbing of sex was that other things became interesting. Sex obliterates the individuality of young women more often than it does that of young men, because so much more of a woman than a man is used by sex. ↗

With power comes the abuse of power. And where there are bosses, there are crazy bosses. It's nothing new. ↗
