(popup required): Slate, March 3, 2010 - The Shame Cycle - The new backlash against casual sex
Compelling research shows that hooking up is not psychologically damaging, and only purity-ring-clutching evangelicals believe that it's wrong to have sex before marriage. Feminist Web sites advise that is it our "feminist duty to 1) seek pleasure and feel entitled to it and 2) to make the world a more orgasmic place for other women." And yet there seems to be something else at play in the culture that's making Klausner and Anderson regretful, some new wave of anti-orgasmic sexual conservatism that makes you hate yourself for what you did last night.
TSTL: 1 Thessalonians 4:3 "For this is the will of God, [even] your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication." The more society denies it, the more they prove that God's ways are best and blessed. A night of pleasure or a life of uncommitted relations may seem pleasurable but long term it is not. And evangelicals are not the only ones that should believe that sex outside of marriage is wrong.

"Paul had a bodily affliction; his eyesight was bad. He thought that by earnest prayer the difficulty might be removed. But the Lord had His own purpose, and He said to Paul, Speak to me no more of this matter. My grace is sufficient. I will enable you to bear the infirmity." {Manuscript Releases, volume 14, page 57.1}
