My meat suit with pink afro commands attention, but only temporarely.

The problem with the modern generation in western culture is the deficit of attention span, and the willingness to abandon belief systems on a whim.
There is such an onslaught of changing information to be processed on a daily basis that it is difficult for the modern mindset to function from a consistant set of principles.
The instantly-available means of modern communication/entertainment only compile this lack of reprieve.

I think the loss of the family unit has some blame in this. The grandparents used to live at home, and had the time to pass on wisdom, values, and self-worth while the parents were gone.
