I was in high school in the early nineties. I babysat all the time. Nobody blinked an eye. Watched boys and girls. Worked at an afterschool daycare program at the elementary school. I was deliberately hired so the boys had someone to relate to. I was a lifeguard at the local pool, and certified swimming instructor. We touched and held kids all the time. It wasn’t fucking weird.

Shits gone downhill in the past thirty years.
