how exactly do they harm the country? how would a few awkward interactions harm our economic infrastructure whatsoever?
and that's not even counting sex between a boyfriend and girlfriend.
To be honest, I don't believe too much in the whole moral fabric stuff (though the previous stuff on abortion was totally serious). But you wanted the argument from the conservative side here, and it's fun to give.
How does casual sex harm our economic infrastructure?
1. It disincentivizes people to marriage. Marriage is good for relationships and hence good for happiness and especially stability, which increases productivity.
2. It cheapens the value of life. Countries that respect life, and hence freedom, are more likely to succeed.
3. Historically, countries tend to lose their morals as they become more and more advanced, at which point they fall apart and are replaced by a more vigorous, conservative, nation. The country whose focus is on pleasure and sex will lose the war to the country where the focus is on war and industry.
