Isn't that harm?" isn't really a rebuttal because of reason #2. If you're consenting to sex, you're consenting to the potential risk it presents. That's why, I, personally, wouldn't shack up with someone I just met. But, I'm not going to judge what another does with their body. If you don't have ownership of your own body, what do you have ownership of?
Exactly. I don't think I'd shack up with someone I didn't trust or know either. It's immoral not to tell someone that you will engage in sex with while having an STD, and not tell that person first. If the sex is consenting between adults, whatever the kind of sex that it is, how is that immoral?
What's the difference between making someone wear a veil around her face in public because of religion, and suppressing natural sexual urges?
Christians think that's immoral, but can't seem to grasp how the other is immoral. Religion suppresses people's freedoms and natural instincts through guilt and fear. Any religion that does that, is immoral as fuck. It blows my mind how people can stand by something so immoral, and defend it against all logic and reason, because their mommy and daddy tells them that it's the word of god. Wake the hell up already!
