And, to return to the original topic, how do certain unmarried sex acts "impact" "society" more than others?
Answer to question 1:
a) Bastard children, and hence, pathological narcissism, misery, poverty, crime, and Democrat votes.
b) Bastard adults. Perfectly performing contraception and abortion "beget" adults who believe that sex can be extracted from the general intention of faithful marriage and bearing the next generation, and exists—like one's disposable girlfriend—for the pleasure of wonderful moi. And more Democrat votes.
Answer to question 2:
More bastard adults. As with the answer to question 1, the more distantly you try to abstract sex from the possibility of procreation, the more energy you must expend in trying to convince yourself that the purpose of the world is your personal pleasure, pursued for its own sake. Since that is not the purpose of the world, anatomically impractical uses of the sex organs produce adults who are frustrated, self-centered, needy, short-tempered, and puzzled. Who mostly vote Democrat, if we're keeping score.
See Charles Murray's book, Coming Apart. Statistically, the people who most commonly describe themselves as "happy" are self-sacrificing, religious people who are married to their first spouse, and have children.

Answer to question 1:
a) Bastard children, and hence
False premise - false conclusions deleted. Only poorly- or un-contracepted unmarried sex leads to bastard children - no justifation there for invading the privacy of people who don't engage in poorly- or un-contracepted unmarried sex.
b) Bastard adults. Perfectly performing contraception and abortion "beget" adults who believe that sex can be extracted from the general intention of faithful marriage and bearing the next generation
I see no reason to think they'll believe that any less if government invades their privacy in an attempt to prevent unmarried sex. Can you provide such a reason?
Answer to question 2:
More bastard adults. As with the answer to question 1, the more distantly you try to abstract sex from the possibility of procreation
So the concept of foreplay is foreign to you? My condolences to your wife. ;-)

It is not the proper function of government to control people's actions to enhance their happiness.
