The Ethics of Sex: A Modern Crisis
Manage episode 482505352 series 3662391
The ethics of sex is a critical topic that reveals how our society's foundation has been eroded by three key developments: the birth control pill, no-fault divorce, and modern feminism.
• Birth control pill in 1961 removed pregnancy risk, opening floodgates to sexual revolution
• Women's virginity was previously self-protected by pregnancy risk, not by state mandate
• No-fault divorce fundamentally changed marriage from child-centered to adult-preference based
• Studies consistently show children fare better with two married parents, even in high-conflict homes
• Modern feminism encouraged women to prioritize careers over biological imperatives
• Depression rates among women have risen dramatically as traditional roles are abandoned
• The nuclear family reflects natural biological drives: women nurture, men protect and provide
• Traditional family formation (high school sweethearts, early marriage) aligned with biological realities
• Sex has lost its "specialness" in society, becoming casual rather than sacred
