I may get flamed for this, but I think promiscuous behavior needs to be condemned somehow. To me, sleeping with a total stranger every weekend seems sleazy.
this isn't a flame, but to you, yes, i can see how that seems sleazy. to me as well.
however, if we aren't doing this, who are we to judge someone else if someone else is taking responsibility for their sexual activities (contraception, condoms, STD check-ups) and engaging with said activities with someone else who is looking for the same thing? who is harmed?
my broader, more global note on this whole subject is that we're better off telling people what they should not do than what they should do. for example, we can certainly tell people not to have sex with children, with animals, without condoms, because we know what harm can come of it. we don't do as well when we tell people "the only place you should have sex is in a loving monogamous relationship." well, yes, that's a lovely place to have sex, but is it the only way to have sex? what's the next step? missionary-style only? must you then have the lights on, eyes open, and speaking affirmative words to one another?
we do better when people are equipped with knowledge and the ability to make their own decisions rather than making their decisions for them and then berating them -- or, worse, patronizing them -- when they inevitably fall short.
