Ting Adult

I have never read The Dungeon Master, but I liked this bit from here.

To read The Dungeon Master now is to be thrown back to a freewheeling time when college students were reckless proto-adults and their daily lives simply werenโ€™t the concern of administrators, when every crevice of a campus wasnโ€™t monitored and mapped.

I remember the tail end of this time! Now, liberals want people โ€” especially women โ€” not to be treated like adults until they are 35, sometimes 40+ for women. So strange to me because I remember when it was vastly different and when someone hit 18, that was it. They were not considered a child any longer. Risk-taking was expected, even encouraged. Mistakes were tolerated. There were no wokesters dogging your every miscalculation and attempting to regulate who you should have a relationship with. (By the way, I think this is actually worse for women and doesnโ€™t protect them at all, contrary to what the wokesters would have you believe, since their practices deny women any form of agency at all.)

It was a better, fairer and freer world then, even for many minorities that weโ€™re โ€œprotectingโ€ now.
