Do men need a "cocoon" as well, by women, for example?

Protecting women means treating them well.
Nope, it doesn't. Sorry, but gotta stop your equivocations right here.
Treating people well is not the same as protecting them.

Men and women can't/shouldn't intermix without marriage?

Sure,
just like a man needs to be protected later in his life too, presumably when the wife is gone? Like with a cocoon of women? By marriage, as the RCC promotes it? How does the woman protect the man in marriage? Financially, like the husband protects the wife? Why should a woman need financial support in the first place?

They don't always go together.  But I find they usually do.
What does, usually, connect atheism to marxism, for example?

Denmark abolished slavery in 1792, being the first country in Europe to do so.
The UK abolished slave trade in the British Empire in 1807.
The UK abolished slavery altogether in 1833.
The Congress of Vienna abolished transatlantic slave trade in 1814/15. That is: 200 European states, cities and other entities, with only the Ottoman Empire missing.
How early do you think the Vatican came out exactly, considering those facts?

What is bad about sex outside of marriage, by the way?

You haven't read your bible, have you?
You conveniently ignored the part where the bible specifically tells you where to buy your slaves, that the (non-Jewish slaves) are your property forever (you can pass them down to your children), tells you how much you can beat your slaves without getting punished, and it even tells you a loophole how to trick your fellow Jews into permanent slavery.

Oh, and indentured servitude, as your lame excuse is called, is immoral too. Arguing that your holy book is less immoral than something/someone else.....not really a good promotion, don't you think?
