I’m reminded of a general trend I heard of from sociology decades ago-societies birthed around plenty of water tend to be more sexually liberal than those from dryer places. The US is somewhat a mix of that while UA seems to have consistent water access.

Are people as glued to social media in EE as they are in the US? Have they had a #metoo movement? How about religious zealots?

Granted, in UA it goes a long way to face your own existence in war to clear the mind of certain topics.

I’m guessing though there’s some event UA has or hasn’t experienced that helps explain the difference-possibly many. US contends with a lot of guilt around the past as something like societal psychological trauma. Guilt and sexual repression are bigger in the US than elsewhere.

Millenials and Gen-Z? Absolutely.

Not really, other problems abound.

>How about religious zealots?

In Poland thanks to them abortion was recently banned. Other countries don't really pay attention to them.

Yes.

>Have they had a #metoo movement?

No. Tiny fragments and remnants from the West, but not really.

>How about religious zealots?

Wouldn't know enough to know, but I haven't noticed any Westboro Baptist Church kind of overt craziness. There is a lot of "homely" traditional Orthodox quiet belief, though.
