Hi lj. But whose business is it what anyone does in private? Everybody's when it affects everybody. People have forgotten the civil obligation they have to others as our society has become increasingly self-obsessed. No man is an island.
MM, I'm really starting to think it's "FUBAR time". I used to post relevant quotes from wise men (and some women) about the necessity of morality being the foundation of human society. Just haven't had the time lately. But sexual morality is absolutely necessary for human civilization to be (a) civilized and (b) human. If things don't turn around we're in for a rough landing.
Almost every private action can affect everyone else, to varying degrees. Do you believe there should be any sphere of private autonomy? That is, are there some private actions which, despite their affect on others, should remain solely under the control of the individual?
