Sexual morality
- If contraception is acceptable, why not same sex marriages? Sterile sex is sterile sex; all that matters is pleasure (hedonism).
- If same sex marriages are acceptable, why not polygamy (multiple wives)? It's a natural arrangement in many human cultures (most especially in Islam and Mormonism).
- If polygamy is acceptable, why not polandry (multiple husbands)? Some tribes allow this.
- If polygamy and polyandry are acceptable, why not polyamorous marriages (any combination agreed to by the partners)? It's all a private matter; the state has no interest in what happens between consenting adults behind closed doors.
- If polyamory is acceptable, why not swinging (couples engaging in sex with multiple partners)?
- If it is legal for same-sex couples to adopt children, why not same sex marriage?
- If contraception in marriage is acceptable, why not prostitution?
- If contraception in marriage is acceptable, why not incest?
