Why do people care so much about who has sex with who?

If it's legal and consentual it's really none of your business unless it's someone like yours child.

  • There is a morality (public safety) war between those who are stupid and those who are not, and what does or doesn't qualify as stupid.

    There is also public resentment from paying taxes and having it fund solutions to other people's mistakes, meanwhile, the idea that everyone gets that security blanket and that everyone makes stupid mistakes, is lost, and it's viewed as 1 a sided charity instead of the community insurance that it is.

    On top of that, people think sex should be monogamous, so that everyone can get an SO.

    Poly relationships and casual sex remove the intended 1 to 1 ratio for sexual partners, making some go without.

    Then you have people having sex before they know it's the right person, and you end up with kids that grow up without 2 parents or having to split time between 2 homes. This can often lead to many financial issues, and then tax payers are left to pick up the slack.

    Having sex with the wrong person can also result in no relationship future, especially for most single moms. It can also spread stds among populations, especially if having casual sex or polyamory sex.

    If there is a large age gap, people who would be of similar age to either person, feel that the younger or older person is stealing from their prospective dating pool (they will tell you other reasons, like lifespan, or brain development, but usually thats the real one).

    Very young people having sex is s terrible idea, even if ignoring stds, as they are not prepared to be parents.

    I probably forgot some reasons, but off the top of my head, that about sums it up.

    • All these reasons are personal between the people involved. They have nothing to do with strangers

    • I made it very clear that they do effect other people, if you still disagree, then its no longer a debate, and you are just refusing to acknowledge anything anyone says, regardless of it's validity.

    • No you just want to dictate peoples sex life, that's creepy

    • Show All
  • Because they have no life.

  • The idea of chastity and sex within marriage was created by religion, not by nature……and religion was created by man. Why people still feel the need to shame and control the sexuality of others is a mystery to me. Sex is a good thing. It’s not inherently bad. We should celebrate it or, at the very least, stay out of each other’s business.

  • WHAT!!! You mean someone who would just go about life without sticking their long nose in someone else's business. Almost unheard of, but what a gratifying world it would be if it could be true.

  • That really should be between two individuals who are consenting, I’m certainly not want to shame anybody regarding who they’ve been with, we all live with our choices.

  • Spreading diseases, unwanted pregnancies, potential for emotional and physical damage, and so on. Take some responsibility, that's all I'd ask.

    • Again none of your business

    • Yes it is. You'd have to be completely self absorbed not to see how the consequences of your actions affect the rest of us.

    • It has nothing to do with you

  • STDs and not wanting to put your dick where 100 other dicks have already been.

    I mean, I'm not one who cares THAT much about body count, but to date someone and assume it's "none of their business" what STD's you have or how wide your vagina now is, is pretty foolish to say.

    Regarding other couples having sex with each other? I'd say that's not that much anyone else's business, but they can still have opinions on it and comment on it, whether justifiably or not.

  • The world needs to have some drama in it... drama means interest, money, and opinions no one asked for :)

  • Some people care about people who are not their children as well, also sex is evil trope.

    • That's nosy

  • I completely flipped my personal stance on sex overnight and I still don't care who is fucking who. Let them be.

  • Because they wave their goddamn flags in my face everywhere I fucking go and say:

    ”ACCEPT ME! ACCEPT ME! There’s nothing wrong with what I’m doing! So I’m going to put it right in front of your fucking face! Accept me! See! We painted the sidewalks and streets! Accept me! Oh look, we painted a flag on our storefront! Accept me!”

    Two consenting adults in the “privacy” of their own home my goddamn ass. Let’s have a parade! 🙄

  • To make sure that if they do have sex with said person that they won't contract some kind of disease

  • Agreed, if it's legal, consentual and doesn't hurt anyone, who cares!

  • If it’s none of my business, can I stop paying for the kids they create via welfare, food stamps, Section Eight Housing, day care assistance, Obamacare, Planned Parenthood subsidies, etc?

    How is anything simultaneously none of my business and my financial responsibility?

    • It's a few penies at most you are paying You are ridiculous

    • Entitlements are about half the Federal budget and I pay a shitload more than a few Pennie’s in taxes. You are ignorant.

  • I don't care. Fuck everyone if they want to. None of my business. Why?

  • Agreed

  • If wanting what’s best for humanity none of my business, then I guess I’m not minding my own business. >_>

  • I have no idea; I don't understand why people contemplate this so much lol

  • Cuz they like Eric chats

  • Beats me.. some people have too much time on their hands I guess

  • I am jeleaous

    • Thanks for like!

  • It’s funny you ask, why do you care about your coworker having sex with an older man

  • Because with the USA currently being under God's Judgment, SOME people care enough about getting people to TURN from their sins, in order to hopefully ALLEVIATE some of this terrible Judgment. There's still time to repent from our sexual sins and obey God's Laws

  • Exactly.. I don't understand from where they get enough time to waste on others personal life. It's very personal choice.
