A new book by my colleague Nathanael Blake, Victims of the Revolution: How Sexual Liberation Hurts Us All, is the latest critique of the sexual revolution from an unabashedly social conservative stance, “grounded in the Christian natural law tradition,” as he says in the preface. The sexual revolution—like other revolutions—promoted certain ideas and promises to people. Men and women, boys and girls, believed and acted accordingly. Rejecting nature, tradition, and custom, people of every class espoused these ideas and suffered the consequences. One of the strengths of this book is the analysis of these consequences. That, coupled with its Christian grounding, makes it a book I would give unhesitatingly to my adult children and their friends.
