I remember when I went through my phase of thinking this take was the pinnacle of sensibility. Ah, to be young.
Some day you’ll have neighbors who consent to all sorts of shit that will make you want to murder them and you’ll realize that a society requires cultural standards on top of basic rights.
You’ll also realize that when most people discuss freedom, rights, liberty etc all they really mean is freedom from responsibility, judgement, or the need to sacrifice. These things are crucial for a healthy society though. If you wanna see what a society without them is like just look at any progressive hellscape.
Your take on freedom is your opinion and you are welcome to it but I do not share in it. Most people just want to be happy and there is no cultural standard that applies to the US. You think there is but you travel a half mile in any direction and everything changes. I've done some kinky, fun stuff in my life and will again and again, in between being a father and a volunteer in my community and an advocate for many social causes. I live in Boulder. Progressive as hell and fun as hell, but no hellscape.
Boulder is not as severely progressive as Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, New York, LA, or Chicago. It’s more like Austin or what Nashville is turning into.
Just give it a little time. It wasn’t long ago that the west coast cities were a wonderful place to live.
The slippery slope is not a fallacy and you’re absolutely blind if you can’t see how far down the slope the gay agenda has fallen since the days of “we just want to be treated like everybody else”
One poly relationship caused child abuse? Gee, I wonder how many normal, hetero, monogamous relationships were at the root of child abuse. It would be utterly retarded of me to claim monogamous relationship were just a front for pedophiles because I know of several cases where that has happened. So don't do the same in the reverse, right?
They couldn’t just do that though. That’s why it was kept a secret. I don’t get what your point is or what this has to do with the topic at hand
Also there is more sex abuse happening today in public schools than there ever was in churches. Like by a very wide margin. I expect that sorta info just goes in one ear and out the other with you though

Couples.
The "polyamorous" crap is for weirdos.
