In an article for The Oldie magazine, 77-year-old singer Marianne Faithfull claims that sex was better in the 1960s. She argues that it was more intense and thrilling due to societal repression. However, writer Libby Purves, who was a teenager in the 1960s, agrees with Faithfull’s sentiment and argues that there was a certain power and emotional bond in the act of sex during that time.
