Why not? We are talking about freedom here. Why is your concern what someone else does in the privacy of thier home/hotel, whatever? Why does it have to be institionalized? Not bashing someone for whom they choose to sleep with isn't institionalizing it.

Because sexual freedom, even being two "consenting adults," cannot be unlimited. Unrestricted sex has adverse societal consequences, aside and apart from what the Bible says, like AIDS, like abortion, like divorce, like unsupported children, like STDs, that can and should be averted.

In a free society, we should be able to make choices. Even unwise ones. And accept responsibility for those choices, including AIDS, STD's, etc... Sexual freedom has not much to do with divorce. People are going to get divorced, even with your social policing of thier behaviors. Unsupported children has not much to do with sexual freedom, but alot to do with the lack of responsibility that is not taught at home. These are social issues, yes. But have nothing to with sexual freedom, but personal irresponibility. If you want to avoid AIDS and STD's, then YOU personally avoid nonmarital sex. But don't police someone else's actions "for thier own good". That is a government we DON'T want.
