I disagree. I don't believe life is harder for young women - or young men. Women are just being trained that they don't have to watch out for themselves and that no matter what happens, they are always the victim.  Binge drinking has always been prevalent in youth and there is no evidence yet that the easy availability of pornography has an effect. I would actually think that because the issue of sexual violence is so much more openly talked about and acceptable behavior norms have changed that there life would be easier for young women.
