Why is it that people look down on promiscuity?

She is a terrible role model. Girls who are sexually active at a young age have problems. They are desperate for male approval and have low self esteem. In Hiton's case, she is not a teen and she is not very bright. She will do anything for publicity. Society does not approve because it is a dangerous life style for a young girl.

Sex sells, but we live in a hypocritical society it seems.

They look down on the consequences of promiscuity. Unwanted babies, veneral diseases, broken homes, broken relationships, irresponsibility, abortions.

There is nothing wrong with having sex. People just need to be responisble, safe, and considerate of others feelings.

In a perfect world without jealousy and disease it wouldn't matter. Modesty or self respect can be attractive also. Some might like an easy person, others wouldn't like sloppy seconds and left-overs. People who are uninhibited might not even think about the consequences or even care because they don't think it can happen to them. Their judgments are way off.

Promiscuity is frowned upon because it brings instability, which in turn brings chaos. The media is all about bringing chaos...so why would it show anything else? Yes...the messages are mixed. Actually, they're in opposition to each other. The media glorifies promiscuous girls/women so that younger women will idolize them and go out to do some of the same things...which brings instability and chaos to the fabric of society.

Just remember if you want to be "slutty" it gets expensive, I should know, condoms, birth control, std testing, nappy clothes the list goes on. Now there is a real reason to stay pure!

Promiscuity is frowned upon because of all the STD's out there and all the date rape drugs and psycho's out there...you never know what's going to happen anymore; and I think society is thinking of his/her daughters and sons. We don't want them to get hurt or worse. And yes sex sells. But there's a difference between watching sexy commercials and sex in the movies, and actually going out there and sleeping with any and everybody you feel the urge to be with. It's harmless to get stimulated be watching it, but a lot of harm can come to you by sleeping around. You take the wrong person home and you could end up in the newspaper obituary. (even if your very careful, things happen) And I agree about Paris Hilton, I wouldn't have been able to read a mag with her on it when I was a kid. But she isn't just getting sexy attention, she's well known for her utter stupidity.

I only look down on promiscuity when she is on her knees. Honestly, I prefer a bit of sluttiness. I like women that are just a bit trashy. Then you know you are not going to freak them out when you start getting kinky. Go for it girl.
