Originally posted by wolfgang59The only moral issues surrounding sex, to my way of thinking, are whether there is consent - informed consent - whether there is deception or false pretenses - whether there is coercion (such as emotional blackmail or where a partner's weaknesses or vulnerabilities are exploited) - whether diseases are willfully or knowingly or negligently passed on - and whether responsibility is taken for any consequences of the sexual relationship. If I think of anything else I will add it later; same goes if anyone else thinks of something I omitted or suggests something I haven't thought of before.
Is it immoral and why/why not.
Personally I think it is a perfectly sound way to live.
Originally posted by Ghost of a DukeI agree. The immorality is not the sex but breaking any commitments we might have made to someone else and the fact that breaking said commitments can bring a lot of pain to them.
If done safely, responsibly and legally, then go for it. (Personally speaking, marriage or a committed relationship is a game changer to promiscuity).
