I'm approaching this issue as somebody who used to sleep around a lot. I've engaged in what you're advocating, and now looking at all my old friends who are in that lifestyle, they are:
>Obese
>Single Parents
>Alcoholics
>Drug addicts
>In financial debt
>Play video games all day
>In their mid 20's and on prescription medication
Etc etc etc.
Maybe you haven't lived it enough to see the fruits of your labour anon. I suggest you open your eyes.
Puritanical vs hedonism is a false dichotomy, they're both bad. Find health.

Well again, if yo use pair bonding as an example, our biology is designed for monogamy and long term fidelity. Marriage is essentially just a way to actualize this process in a more intelligible form, just like a word is used to represent something, though people often confuse the word for the thing itself, and that's why most people believe that it's all just social BS and ignore objective reality.
>I feel like you're romanticizing
Yes, I am. That is my personal belief and there isn't much evidence for it outside of biology. But the purpose of upholding this ideal is along the lines of poetic myth making, we ought to mythologize what is healthy and demonstrably true, even if we can't see it's historical examples very clearly, in the present day, we know that it is despite all options the healthiest behavior to engage in.
>Humans are emotional
Yes, but that doesn't mean we cannot sublimate these emotions into healthier avenues of expression through disciplined and principled action.
>I just don't think it should be banned.
Neither do I, but I don't think it should be encouraged. It should be and remain taboo forever.
