It's much more pleasant (and comforting) to know that no matter where you put your hands and fingers, those places have felt thousands of fingers and hands before yours.
I used to change my toothbrush when the bristles fell out. Then i got a toothbrush where i could just change the heads. After that i had several toothbrushes incase i lost one. Now i have a slightly tatty but much loved toothbrush and my wife has an electric one....
promiscuity: miscellaneous mingling or selection of persons or things
Based on these definition you can't be both....other people do not have to have the same preferences, I feel it would do the OP good to realize that they don't and keep it moving.
You just made a leap without any logical reason. You have to explain why not mingling equates to high moral standards. You then have to explain whose morals these are, where they come from, and why they should be applied to everyone on the planet.

everything people say on here is according to you "without logical reasons" unless you're the one saying it. I don't "have" to do anything according to who ever you are.
IMO, a person that is sleeping around does not have high standards. Given the two definitions, miscellaneously choosing something (in this case another person) does not denote having high standards. If you disagree with that, that's your buisness.
Ultimately, as I said before NO ONE has to accept anyone else's preferences period. If you have a problem or issue with the way someone is living -- then don't involve yourself romantically with that person, simple as that. Trying to engage in an arguement to convince people that sleeping around is acceptable to them if they feel it is not is a lost cause (especially in my eyes). You have a much better chance of worrying about what you find acceptable and controlling that.
tell you 2 things: you choose 'virtuous' and people will say what aganusn said 'you're outdated and puritanical.'
I think it is weird to equate virtue with sexual abstinence. Sex can be a very good thing. One can be very virtuous, charitable, kind, loving and have sex seems to me.

I don't see it so much as a matter of preference as a matter of how one decides what constitutes virtue.

I don't think anyone cares much what someone else does. It is a bit silly to try and equate virtue with abstinence, thereby implying that those who don't abstain cannot be virtuous.

I didn't say anything about 'having sex,' in general the OP asked about promiscuity & that's what I was addressing. From what I can tell, anything outside of sleeping around is pegged as 'weird' or 'puritanical thinking, etc.' Throwing in the idea that sex is good, isn't going to make me sleep around any faster. But to each his own.

I am not sure who you think is trying to get you to sleep around.
I can think of a lot of risks. Just because you have a lot of experience doesn't' mean you're necessarily better in the sack.
You see, there's thing called sex, right? And it turns out most people find it to be a very pleasurable, invigorating, even life-affirming act. It's so much fun, in fact, people want to do it more than once and do it even when they're not trying to reproduce.
I know, I know, this is all very shocking.
Oh, and I throw my toothbrush away every few months...just like I do with my men.
