Specifically, my teen years were in the 1960s.
How much respect and/or attention was given to female sexual pleasure back then?
Well, like in a time capsule, some of those attitudes have been memorialized in the James Bond films from that period.
In particular, you might consult the first two James Bond films,
Dr. No and From Russia with Love,
from 1962 and 1963 respectively.
And I can tell you, recalling that period,
the fictional character James Bond, as portrayed in those movies,
was very much portrayed as the ideal male back then.
No one, back then, cavilled about the evident sexism in those portrayals.
Now fast forward to the 2020s.
Now at least some women delight in portraying women as victims.
I am referring in particular to the phrase
"He raped me with his eyes."
What an absurd statement.
Equating a real crime with something trivial,
and which carries no real harm.
But now back to the issue of female sexual pleasure.
While in the 1960s I watched James Bond movies,
now in the 2020s I visit certain internet web sites and watch videos about lesbians.
Certainly a very different view on the issue of female sexual pleasure.
In the world of James Bond, such did not seem to exist, or be significant.
In the lesbian porn videos, it is all important.
As for my attitude,
while I still believe in many of the views and attitudes of the 1950s and 1960s,
on this issue I am wholeheartedly in favor of maximizing female sexual pleasure,
an issue which scarcely came up back then.
There are various examples of those lesbian videos,
which I have found most interesting.
With some trepidation (because mentioning it may cause blowback against me)
one quite interesting video is
"Under Her (Lesbian) Control" starring Mindi Mink and another woman, available at pornhub.com.
It certainly raises some interesting issues.
In that 41-minute video, two women are at very different stages of life.
One clearly exerts total control over the other.
Some for her personal benefit,
but some clearly intended to benefit the younger woman.
Some of both.
To avoid legal issues, I should give some details about the ages of the performers in the video mentioned above:

Per the above reference, Arielle Faye was born in 1992 and thus was at least 24 when the film was made in 2017,
even though she looks so undeveloped.
OTOH, Mindi Mink was born in 1968, thus at least 49 in 2017.
Thus 24 years older than Arielle.

If you have any interest in dominant sex between older women and younger women,
it might interest you.
Aa for me, whatever the ladies like and maximizes their pleasure is fine with me.
