I don’t see that previous generations had a better attitude towards sexuality. I rather think it was worse.
Age verification can only be seriously enforced through very intrusive surveillance of internet activity. You’d need a good reason to justify that, which doesn’t exist. How about we give all minors cameras to put in their bedrooms, so that CPS can check in on them? Too intrusive? Well, that actually might help against child abuse, which is a real issue.
