Good points, but what the ever living fuck does religion and Christianity have to do with this topic? As far as I can tell, the people fucking the most in junior high and high school were doing it at church camp, Falls Creek Oklahoma. The points you make are logical, but tying it to morality, and religious morality in particular, is demonstrably problematic for many, many, many reasons. Primarily, if the only reason to refrain from this stuff is displeasing an invisible deity, then it's really easy to say "oops I guess I can make this one up with prayer and forgiveness." Remember that the religious purity types are against sex education or discussing sex at all. I have an 11 year old daughter and I know what's coming. I'm not going to tell her that sex is bad or immoral, I'm going to tell her (we've already started these conversations) that it comes with incredible emotional baggage, and of course stds, pregnancy, derailing your life, etc. She's already seeing the emotional part with her friends having boyfriends and whatnot at that age and she's just not into it. She's also seeing that boys can be really shitty to girls sometimes, we tie that into making good choices when you get older when it comes to boys. She's also told us that she thinks she might like girls, so that's gonna be a whole other pandoras box for me when it comes to how the religious types will treat her if that's who she ultimately becomes.
The porn issue is pretty concerning for my son who isn't that age yet but it'll come for sure. But I know for sure I don't want him crying himself to sleep and torturing himself emotionally the way I did ever time I masterbated because I thought that god and all my dead ancestors were watching and that I was going to hell for having the desires and failing to suppress them. I still have a lot of thinking to do to figure out how to avoid the harmful parts of porn addiction, etc., but I'm sure as fuck not going to make it about guilt for having natural feelings and acting on them in your own fucking room. Again, religion is just so harmful in this context. It's not only unnecessary, it's actively harmful. Like someone said above, the former vice president of the fucking United States refused to be in a room with a woman alone because of his fucked up religious views on sexuality. It's super demeaning to women that he reduces them to sex objects that must be avoided. Fuck him, fuck the speaker, and fuck religion. I'm just done pretending to be nice about it when it's causing such active harm.
