Promiscuity

-Removed-

Promiscuity isn't fornication though.
Isn't "fornication" unlawful and/or unnatural sex? (I concede I may be wrong)

-Removed-

Just to be clear.
I would neither encourage or discourage promiscuity to my children.

It is an option.

Just as buying an Audi is a sound choice or a VW or a Toyota or ...

My point is that Promiscuity is an option and there is - in my opinion - nothing
wrong with it. (Given all the caveats that have already been made)

-Removed-

I was in a committed, faithful relationship for 10 years until my late thirties.
Prior to that I lived like a monk. (Well not quite ...)
I don't think promiscuity is a pre-requisite to faithfulness - at least not for me.

Hey, wait a minute. To be fair, I wobbled a bit with regard to the possible connotations of the word "promiscuity". 😵

-Removed-

Well, I did hedge - but I scarcely broke stride - so perhaps my aplomb threw you a bit.

-Removed-

Being celibate carries those same risks!
I was promiscuous for about 10 years - enjoyed it.
Obviously STDs are a major consideration but I think regular sex
is part of a healthy life-style and if you do not have a regular partner ...

Everything includes risk; marriage, for example. No one can be sure that their marriage won't be a wreck and that they won't regret it. All we can do is make sure we thoughtfully and responsibly choose a partner for marriage; the same goes for being promiscuous.

Promiscuity doesn't have to be indiscriminate.
