Sexual revolution

The sexual revolution was a substantial change in sexual morality and sexual behavior throughout the West in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The trigger for the revolution was the development of the birth control pill in 1960, which gave women access to easy and reliable contraception.

Technological developments

Developments in the fields of photography and cinematography, particularly improvements in camera technology for recording moving and still-life images of people, quickened the spread of movies and photographic images. Studies of consumer psychology and new techniques in marketing and advertising aided the rise of the film industry in Hollywood, California, creating a mass market for attractive images first in the monochrome of black-and-white, then later in color and Technicolor.
