I don't know about the other stuff but I agree with the language. More cursing, more hyperbole (calling things heaven, best ever, etc.) Not too surprising really, there's no way the puritanical values could have lasted.

I agree, but I look at it a different way. We are discovering marriage is mostly useless now yet we still have the socilization to want to get married. Therefore we get a lot of divorces. When you figure out on some level marriage is mostly pointless, divorcing isn't giving up, its facing reality.
