Mind-On, my first reaction to this statement is utter shock that someone feels that separating men and women and criminalizing sex outside of marriage is the right thing to do. I am an American and so steeped in the culture of civil rights that this blows my mind. Call me provincial. Are your feelings in this matter also influenced by your culture? Or your religious beliefs?

Aside from that, however, this kind of solution just doesn't work. Forbidding behavior that is human nature only eroticizes and impels it. Much like veiling women has totally eroticized body parts that, here in Los Angeles, wouldn't make a man bat an eye, if a law were passed forbidding sex outside of marriage I guarantee you I'd be one of the first to break it. Along with most everyone I know. Maybe all together, in public. Us folks here in L.A. will immediately rebel and perform whatever sexual act anyone cares to taboo!
