Why are we still judging women-and recently also men- who enjoy an active sex life with several partners? How come we attach morality to one of the most basic human instincts and needs- a fulfilled sex life?
We have to stop calling singles names just because they openly follow this instinct. Society has to accept that a person's sex life does not negatively influence his/her moral values or outlook on life in general. It's simply a bodily need that wants to be fulfilled- no more and no less.
Instead of eradicating all kinds of insults towards sexually active singles, society has opted for the less progressive option of including men into the negative chatter. They are now called man whores- a ridiculous attempt to please feminists complaining about the unequal judgement of sexually active men and women.
So why do we make a connection between sex and morality?
With contraception being available to every woman and man in the UK, the possibility of leaving a pregnant woman behind after a one night stand is simply not a good enough reason anymore. However, it seems society has not successfully cut the cord between the two yet- sex and morality- a destructive concept alien to human nature.

Why is an active sex life immoral?
The only way sex outside of a relationship should be seen as immoral is if the parameters of the encounter are not clear to all parties, i.e. if the man or the woman expects a relationship to develop while the other person does not and is not honest about his/her intent.
If the rules of love making are set out clearly between all parties and everybody agrees with them- where does the immorality creep in?
It's simply not there- in theory, that is. In reality we still value a woman's virginity as a moral asset and show our disgrace about a man who 'sleeps around'.
Embrace your inner desires- embrace your nature
Humanity has to accept and embrace the fact that sexual desire is part of our nature and there is nothing wrong with that. If you agree with me, be part of the change and refuse to judge people on their sex life in the future.
