Sorry, let me define my terms. By "fuck buddy", I mean a girl whom I am neither monogamous with nor emotionally anchored to. We find each other fun, and love fooling around, but we are not in "a relationship" -- among other things, no public affection, and definitely no "I love you".

Right, I know. I wouldn't date a woman who entered into a non-monogamous sexual relationship.

And some people wouldn't date a woman who isn't Catholic/Jewish/Hindu/whatever. You're within your rights to choose whom you date, but it doesn't really reflect anything about the people you're refusing as much as about yourself. How is your personal unwillingness to date such women interesting or relevant?

I didn't say it does.

Having a one-night-stand is stupid. Does it make someone a whore who should be ostracized? No. Is it a behavior that, in my estimation, a rational person would be ashamed of? Yes. Is it worse than the worst or stupidest thing I've done? Probably not.

please provide a rational derivation of this shame.

Why? What is so gross and depressing about it?

[pw0ncakes]

I like to believe that sex is an expression of romantic love and not just a commodity to be exchanged for social status.

You do realize those aren't the only two choices right? Sometimes (even in a monogamous relationship) it's just a fun, pleasurable, aerobic activity.
