It's just a reflection of society, as Ktsnake said. You don't see people wearing a hat and gloves to the grocery store and people don't dress up when they travel. It's perfectly ok to broadcast to the world how many men/women you've slept with, and even film it, if you really want to. A lot of this has to do w/ the declining control of the studios over their actors, but it's also a microcosm of society. There was drug use, alcoholism and sexual promiscuity then, but it definitely was not talked about or done in the public eye. Things like divorce and illegitimate children are no longer stigmatized. I wouldn't blame Hollywood for that.
