The Stonewall Riots occurred in 1969. Star Trek's controversial interracial kiss was a big scandal a few years before. The movie "The Legend of Nxxxxr Charlie" was shown and advertised all over the country. The movie "Midnight Cowboy" got an X-rating with zero nudity and one off screen man on man blowjob.

Sorry, I think you've got it backwards.

I think a great societal impact was caused at least here in Europe by the two world wars, which left many people traumatized.
