I believe because it simply is not about liking sex. I think promiscuity is tied to a troublesome past, poor parenting, depression, need to rebel, bad friends, drugs, etc. Many women are promiscuous as a way to get back at the world, a way to lash out. Promiscuity can lead to impulsive decision making, without using logic or proper judgment. Think of what promiscuous women do. They engage in sexual acts indiscriminately. Most of the time proper vetting can’t be done, spread of disease is much higher, mental and physical abuse is increased as well.

You want other people to not form opinions about the behavior of others because that is what YOU want. And you are complaining about people wanting others to conform to THEIR standards. Aren't you doing the very thing for which you are criticizing others?
If you don't want other people forming opinions about your behavior, you need to go live on an otherwise deserted island. This is just the way human nature is and it is unlikely to change in your lifetime.
Well, a lot of the sentiment is about keeping women pure, and other notions about controlling women.
There are many who holds a double standard.
A lot of people are really invested in the idea that sex is only acceptable within a marriage for procreation.
And some really think if others conduct themselves differently it has some effect on the sanctity of their own relationships.
To me the only issue is the practical concerns of spreading STDs and unplanned pregnancies. But we have condoms and contraceptives now.
I don't know if you like STDS and unwanted pregnancies go ahead.
I dont respect thots , especially men dont respect them. They may fuck them, hang out with them etc but would NEVER consider them dating/marriage material.

Religion plays a major part in it. There is nothing immoral about being promiscuous provided it's consensual and you aren't knowingly spreading diseases.
For the same reason that most behaviors which lead to an increase in disease are viewed poorly, there are also cultural and religious reasons, but I think the former is perhaps the greatest reason.
Shame has always been a lesser form of punishment to keep people from doing things that harm themselves as society as a whole.
Sure, maybe you can take all of the safety precautions when it comes to sex, use condoms, birth control etc. However, birth control isn't 100%. Some women get caught pregnant while on birth control, and condoms sometimes break. In these cases, if the woman is opposed to abortion, she ends up having a child with a guy she never planned to have a child with. These relationships usually don't work out. Maybe they aren't compatible for a serious relationship. Maybe the guy didn't want children and is an irresponsible piece of shit, so he has no contact with the kid. Either way, it's bad for the poor kid that came about because of the decisions of those adults. Children from broken families tend to have more issues and don't tend to do as well as those from stable families.
Some STDs can still be passed on even with condoms. This is why most people find it disgusting when someone sleeps around, the idea that they might be infected. If you're having a lot of casual sex maybe you get tested regularly, but you don't tend to check your partner's. It's always a risk.
Promiscuity is linked with many mental health issues including depression, drug abuse. People who sleep around tend to be quite mixed up and unstable mentally, whether this is what causes them to be promiscuous or maybe promiscuity makes them this way.
Statistics show that the more pre-marital sexual partners somebody has, the more likely they are to divorce. This seems to be more true for women than men, suggesting that a more promiscuous woman is less likely to be able to maintain a healthy relationship.
Of course also with high promiscuity comes an increased chance of cheating.
A strong and healthy societies are family-based. Healthy marriages, healthy children, healthy society. Once you lose those values you end up with broken families all over the place and broken kids who continue the cycle."I’ve noticed posts from guys and girls hating on promiscuous people, especially women, as if having a lot of sex is somehow immoral."
It might not be immoral, but it is objectively harmful. Statistics has proven that time and time again.
Promiscuous people have been linked again and again to...
... mental instability and higher rates of mental illness
... higher rates of STDs (It's a numbers game)
... be more likely to be a single parent (numbers game)
... have higher rates of abortion (numbers game)
... have less stable relationships and higher divorce rates
... have increased chances of having been in an abusive relationship
... be more likely to cheat
... be more likely to become addicted
... be more likely to come out of a broken household.

-> Point 11. Promiscuity is a common symptom of psychopathy. Goes hand in hand with the other study mentioning impulsiveness as it shows it here on point 14.There are many stupid cultural traditions and the worst is labeling a guy who enjoys sex a lot as a “stud” but a girl who loves it a “slut”. That is such bullshit I can’t believe it still exists. Girls, in fact, are built for greater sexual enjoyment than guys. The clitoris is the only organ on either male or female that has no other purpose than pleasure, It has far more nerve endings than an erect on does meaning it can receive far more pleasure.
Women have many secondary erogenous zones than do men. They get more pleasure from having nipple fondled, often really passionate kissing. I’ve dated girls who got very turned on when I’ve drenched their ears. They have a long, slow arousal curve but the beauty is knowing it, knowing the different types of pressure and direct touch is appropriate. Most young guys ( and girls) think that losing virginity is special event. In most cases. It;s a painful sometimes bloody experence for the girl and the guy usually has cum before he;s even locked on target. Get a vibrator and use it, you can much more comfortably break your own cherry at the place, pace, and. With as much pressure you feel necessary. It’s so much easier and cleaner- more than 2 girls have told me that.
Back to girls being anatomically built for more pleasure than men, while men are often 1 and done, girls can have multiple orgasms each one more intense and coming more quickly than the previous one.
All that being anatomically true there are sound reasons why teenage girls should be a little more careful about sleeping around,, Girls almost always need to provide contraception because 2 minutes of satsfacton for a guy could mean 20 years of hard work for you, Guys will always want to fuck w/o a condom saying it feels better- it does, a lot, but it still doesn’t = the possibilties often life changing- so do not go n for it. Many younger guys haven’t learned or even wanted to learn about the art of bringing a woman pleasure,
Why it still gets derision, it’s tough being a teen. There s so much emphasis on fitting in, So many cliques and with technology to amplfy it ut’s worse. If you cultivate your sexuality some will be jealous, some guys will be intimidated by your experience. Once the jungle of HS gets over you can hopefully have some choice n where you’ll be around what kind of people.
Avoid or limit alcohol consumption before sex, it loosens you=u up but it also puts you in dangerous situations, It blocks sensation & can wnd up on Social mediaThere are quite a lot of reasons.
1) No security for any child that is born. Sure, you can use birth control, but accidents happen. A woman wouldn't even be able to figure out who the biological father is without DNA test. Not everyone can afford that.
2) Risk of STDs and STIs, and of course AIDS. If I am not wrong, the first person in America who was found to have zika virus never even traveled to the place where zika was originally existing (South America), but he had sex with someone who had been to Venezuela. That person was probably not even promiscuous but it still happened.
3) Future is not secured. At the end of the day, you are still alone. A woman could have sex with men all day but will even one of them come to protect her if she is ever in need? Your looks/money/whatever are all gone and then what?
4) Difficult to make relationships. Promiscuous acts can make an actual relationship very insignificant afterwards.
These are just some things that you risk with promiscuous acts.You are also against promiscuity - your description is doing its best to separate you from the label. If it really isn't as bad as you claim, why make it clear that it doesn't pertain to you? So ask yourself why you frown upon it too?
Also, those are pretty big assumptions you're making. 1. People don't use protection as much as they should, hence why there's a lot of unwanted pregnancies, and STDs. 2. Some people aren't honest and that's why many broken hearted women cry that they can't find good men, or men use them. 3. I don't have the stats, but personally I've seen that the more likely the guy is promiscuous, the more likely he is to have sex with an underage girl aka statutory rape. People and especially women who are promiscuous have a much higher chance of being unfaithful in marriage, which is actually illegal in some areas.
Why criticize them? Well, when you put yourself or info out in public, assume that you'll receive praise and criticism.
Personally I disagree with it because of the aforementioned risks, as well as I think sex isn't just a carnal release.Religion aside
Casual sex is becoming more and more popular because of gradual loss of morals, values, tradition, and respect towards others AND oneself in the world caused mostly by the media which promotes sex in many direct and indirect ways
Sex is more and more becoming the "cool thing that everyone should do" these days, and people do it because while it seems so accessible, easy, and quick for most people, it also seems very pleasurable, so they do it without any doubts because they see it as a great deal with no harm in it, not thinking about how this could affect their future, how it could stain their reputation, how it could take away very precious things from them and forbid them from beautiful things in life, for example, pure good innocent love
Some people realize that eventually, some of them would just get depressed and are forced to live their life as a sex toy so they can make themselves feel better, while others try to throw their past away and start pure and anew, but the past always leaves its marks in one's life
It's a growing social problem, its effects might be expressed with the decreased marriage rate, which increases breakups of couples, increasing the number of single parents, therefore mostly giving out a poorly raised child who contributes to making society worse
All of this critically divides society, that's why it's such a big growing problem, and you can see why it SHOULD be frowned upon
Double-standards are shit and both fuckboys AND sluts should be shamed for tearing society apartSome people care about it some dont. Personally idc what you do until it's a case of are we going to enter a relationship. Prior promiscuity in some people can be a red flag for inability to have self constraint, others the ability to commit and faithfulness gets called into question, an increased concern of contracting STIs, the idea that if she gets an urge while you aren't around will she cheat, if she has been with a tonne of guys it can create insecurities of how you will compare and creates a fear of if a perfectly good relationship in all other ways could be ruined by your inexperience or underperformance from the quantity and quality of sex compared to what she is used to. It also can generate doubt on if you want to share something you see as an intimate connection with someone who just sees it as a thing to do for pleasure rather than intimate connection. There is the saying a leapard can't change its spots, so how long until she returns to her promiscuity, and the final point I will say, is a lot of guys dont like the idea of putting their dick somewhere a hundred other guys have put theirs before
For women, it's because they're perceived to be risking their eggs.
For men, a hatred of promiscuity is probably more or less either a fear that they are manipulating and using women or a social balancing act to sort of "equalize" the hate against women being promiscuous. Typically, the social equivalent of a minx is a virgin male.
For a virgin male, the instinctual thought is, "Females control sex. If a male cannot pass on his genes, it means no females have deemed him valuable enough to reproduce." i. e. he is failing his job to propagate the species.
A premise that has to be established here is that males want sex more than females do. Or, females are more desirable to males than males are desirable to females. Social studies prove this. College campuses, a guy and a girl go around campus asking for sex. Approximately 0% of women say sure. 95% of males say "hell yeah."
Supply and demand. Women have the supply, men have the demand. Which is not to say women do not want sex. Of course they do. Thankfully. But, women want sex under certain conditions or only with high value males. Men want sex under most conditions, and with pretty much any females that will have them. Given that women reproduce 2x as much as males [and this number has been as high as 15x, through history] this shows that males biologically cannot afford to be picky.
Essentially, if you have a high value, finite resource: wait for the highest bidder and sell high.
And, if you have a low value infinite resource, sell as much as you possibly can.
Our brain's are 100,000 years old. Our instincts are 20,000 years old. They don't know that population isn't an issue anymore. To our animal brains, there is only 100,000 humans left on Earth, and we are in danger of extinction.
That's why women get flak for having too much sex. And why men get flak for not having enough sex. Instinctual impulse to preserve the species and the quality of the species.Ummm a lot of it boils down to a few really important generalizations people make about promiscuous folks. As with any generalization, it's based on someone's life experience, or on stories that they've heard from others. Not all of these are made by everyone, of course, but they are common...
1. Promiscuous people, especially women, are generally not very selective about who they let come close, so why should someone value their connection with a promiscuous person if apparently the connection is not as valuable?
2. Wearing condoms and practicing safe sex is not as common as it should be. I know guys who have had plenty of hook ups at the bars, and simply refuse to wear condoms. This isn't everyone, but if my guy friends feel that way sober, do you really think they'll care if some random girl asks them to put on a rubber when they are drunk?
3. If a promiscuous person doesn't have good sex with you, it's only natural for them to think back to partners they've had better sex with. They are more likely to think "just sex" with someone new isn't a big deal.As an older guy who has had the chance to date many people and have serious relationships and watch all my buddies in their relationships... when it comes to women, those who have slept around are terrible to be in a relationship with. When i was younger i didn't give it a second thought but at my age thinking back to every successful relationship i was in which was 4. Two were virgins, one had sex with one boyfriend before me, one had sex with 3 bfs before me. The ones that did not work were all ones with girls having more than 5 prior men. They failed for many reasons not simply cheating or something, girls just can't connect or bond properly with a man once they do it a few times. Thats my belief and id seen nothing that contradicts its. So when i see a girl going to slut around i see a girl who might as well be proud of tattooing a swastika on her forehead because id certainly not bother wasting my time dating someone who isn't going to completely trust and bond with me and have a close relationship just as i wouldn't give swastika head a chance either.
My experience as a man is that women dont specifically want a man ho, however women do value experience, so if you can be ethical to the women you are with and not have any random baby mamas and can remain free of baggage from sleeping around, women dont seem to care in the slightest. The fact i was both in a very long term relationship and also was successful at being a single man seems to be pretty attractive to women i think because it shows i can be locked down if the right girl shows up. And i think thats whats important. Its not playing the game thats a problem but acting like a playa.It is immoral because the potential repercussions are detrimental to yourself and others. Especially others. You have your own intentions and are in control over them, but you can’t be sure how others feel, or how an interpersonal scenario or relationship will affect them or what it means to them.
What happens when disease or unwanted pregnancy results from a careless sexual encounter? There’s a large impact on either you, and/or the other person as well. Then you’re faced with other physical and moral dilemmas. It’s not difficult to wrap your head around.
It’s really a great example how “feel good” behavior and politics is ruining our social fabric. There are lots of unwanted pregnancies happening everyway, leading to single mothers, children growing up without fathers, people growing up not really understanding what it means to be “accountable.” Responsibility. But instead, everyone just does whatever the hell they feel like, until it gets them into trouble, and the cycle often perpetuates.
Very regressive behavior in actuality, when certain political figures and parties like to present their (very complimentary policies to these sorts of behaviors and desires in people) as “progress” or “progressive.”
Oh, the irony.It's overindulgence, and nothing good can come from it. Sex is pretty insignificant and easy to perform, but can have very heavy consequences. It creates life, spreads disease, and has a part in who we love, since during it our brains release bonding hormones. You have sex with the wrong person, chances are you're going to be in love with them forever even if they're a piece of shit. Even more likely, is you are no able longer to bond with people because those receptors for the oxytocin get worn out to the point of infectivity.
Plus having less partners really shows your future SO how much you really care for them. "You're so amazing, I don't want to have sex with anyone else except for you!"So many opinions from people who can't see farther than their nose into the phenomenon
Like another guy here mentioned, it kills exclusivity and honor, and it basically tears society apart because it can destroy lives and affect the general well-being of people
Stop following your instincts and spreading your legs to anyone like animals, we as human beings have the ability to control our urges and suppress them using our brain, that's what differs us from animals
People don't value sex as much as they used to nowadays, before, it was a way of expressing deep, emotional, exclusive, and passionate love
But now, it's just a cheap way to have fun, it's getting abused and it kills the value of a romantic touch between two individuals in love
In these times we NEED love, we need unity and strong bonds, we don't need to be divided because of stupid urges of 30 yo thirsty teens
Grow up and get your mind straight, be mature and control yourself before you lead yourself to a terrible lifeThis is for those mature enough in their spiritual walk to know that sex is not just a physical release of pleasure but something that connects two people spiritually, mentally, physically in flesh as one in all the ways that they are to be bonded in a marriage..
basically one is going out & marrying many people without the commitment and from this illegitimacy arises STD’s, unwanted pregnancies, broken families of divorce, cheating, unhealthy relationships, mental & emotional trauma or stress!! It really shows a lack of maturity in self control & sensibility when one is able to ‘risk it all’ for a few minutes of pleasure!! It shows that one is selfish and doesn’t think about the future consequences of their actions..."but why criticize people who do?"
Because if you share, promote and publicly display your values, views and beliefs, you make yourself a fair target of criticism.
This kind of questions is always posed as if people ran surveillance on others and actively invaded their homes to deride them for the ways they live their lives without affecting other people, which is obviously not the case.
The internet is NOT the privacy of your home, it is a public space, and all that you share online affects other people and said people are open to react to it whichever way they want.It isn't. Most GaGers are just fakers. Many claim to be "conservative", yet they are having sex everywhere and anywhere they can. So they pretend to hate "hookup culture" and bemoan the decline of morals. It is funny most male/female blame females for the decline of morality in Western society. But the in another post you will see a guy whining about not getting any because of feminism. It is hilarious.
It is like most of these guys can only entertain one thought in their head at one time. I guess that is how hypocrisy works.
One minute women have their legs open all the time and are ruining morality for all of us.
The next minute, they have their legs closed because feminism hates men and women won't give it up.
And that is just one example.Because when you give it to a guy who actually loves you, he doesn’t want to imagine you being railed and dicked down by a bunch of men who didn’t care about you enough to even know your name. Statistically it shows that you’re much more likely cheat or appreciate sex in the way it’s supposed to with your man. It really comes down to biology. It’s like you’re putting miles on yourself. It deppreciates your dating value, and whether you want to believe this or not, it does. Men might not say it to avoid being labeled as sexist, but it’s in the back of our heads. Women and men are different.
Who determines morality? YOU define your own values and morals. In my opinion, most people that believed promiscuity is immoral base it off of their religious views.
I say, do what works for you. As long as you’re not hurting your own values or hurting other people, you are well within your right to have many sexual partners in your lifetime.
That being said, promiscuity and/or casual sex is not for everyone and that’s okay as well.
