Youth is a time where commitment isn't necessarily a must, right?
To your question above, Cannabis=Freedom, I don't see any harm in that at all, either. I think the bed-hopping when people do it for reasons other than physical pleasure (like sexual compulsiveness or looking for love that they didn't receive someplace else) is when the low self-esteem issue factors in. If they do it for fun and because they happen to like their partners and enjoy sex, then I'm all for that, too. People definitely need to sow their wild oats when they're young and before they're committed.
