The sexual revolution only benefited men.

Women, typically the gatekeepers of sex, were convinced that they should go and give it out, otherwise the other girls will, causing them to compete by offering sex at higher rates. Women are now more sexual objects than before, and despite the higher amounts of sex, very promiscuous women are still stigmatized just like before the sexual revolution. It's almost like they gained nothing but sex.

Men, who have the higher sex drives, were only happy to oblige. The fact that the prediliction of some existing societal problems are based on this are oblivious to women and men. Example: Abortion is an issue between right of life or a right to choose - in reality, Abortion wouldn't be a problem if people were willing to admit that its rates are very high when value on sex is very low a la the sexual revolution. No sides (women or men) want to say to "have less extramarital sex" as a way to solve Abortion, so they keep supporting nonsolutions, like access to contraceptives or banning abortion.

But you can't let the genie out of the bottle - people are too sex-addicted to admit that sex is creating this problem and we really have to have less of it before marriage. As a married man, I can definitely say sex is very hard to turn down once you have permanent access to it - for the unmarried to get access to this benefit it is reasonable to see why they refuse to simply say that sex outside of marriage is the problem - it's very hard to turn down.
