So I was looking through the news recently when a story of an Olympian's sex life came up. It stated he had one night stands. Many Olympic athletes do.
The vitriol was sky high.
The MASSIVE response were people saying:
"Society is becoming an immoral place! Think of the kids!"
"He is a role model, he shouldn't have sex unless married!"
"Its against my personal beliefs and values! He should stop!"
"Its an immoral lifestyle that objectifies women, he is an abuser."
"His mother should be ashamed of raising a sleazebag."
And all manner of bullshit. The main theme is that even though they are fully grown adults, they become pariahs because somehow casual sex equates to a heinous crime. Its not just sex, pretty much anything abnormal is treated like you just strangled a baby. Even when the person in question was a man.
So why? Why do people insist on sex with marriage? Why can't fully grown adults make decisions for themselves without being treated as some pariah? Why is this mentality still here? And why such intolerance for a person's choices?
Why, escapist?
