Your propensity to pick on one small subgroup of relatively indefensible people is evidence that you haven’t a clue as to what or where the problems of society stem from, or the guts to address the real problems of society. Couples sharing open intimacy with one another is the least of this country’s problems. Newspaper columnists and editorial page writers trying to shove their brand of morality downs readers’ throats is one example of rabid finger waving that makes people on the sidelines, not to mention the receiving end, apathetic and more distanced.
In my opinion, that is a serious problem. By touting your extremist views on morality, you turn away those who might have lended an open ear to some of your more reasonable viewpoints – if, in fact, you actually have any. For those of you who like to go around judging othes’ lifestyles or behavior, look at yourselves first. Because of your rigidity and lack of compassion, you are the ones who are raising tomorrow’s “swingers.”
