Lots of people in their 20's think they are absolutely fearless -- about just about everything. But in my experience -- they are rather cowardly and just plain stupid about what they should be afraid of and what they should embrace.
Many of them masquerade as being open-minded about life; but actually hide in an invisible shield of outright terror about "new" experiences. They are afraid of the sexual experiences they need to have; they are frightened of commitment and so they stay away from possible "entangling alliances." They know what the phrase "friends with benefits" means but they understand no real part of that self-contained equation. Tantric practice means nothing to them; the Kama Sutra is an unknown; "Cosmo" or "Esquire" is what they consider "dirty": massage is like "prostitution" in their minds. They are the non-sensual, non-sexual generation that actually thinks they have it all. They are the "Puritan majority" in America. The most sexually tantalizing show they watch on television is: "Scandals" or "Satisfaction."
Youth IS wasted on the young.
