And is that bad? Sex is a natural process, just like taking psychedelics. We don't need to regulate or control sex beyond some very simple ground rules (age limits), so why do we have to regulate or control psychedelic use?

Just like sex, taking psychedelics is a (mostly) safe, natural process, with an important effect on the individual's maturation.

Bad? I'm all for sex, but STDs and unwanted pregnancy are very real. The perfect regulation is unrealistic, if at all desirable (it is for therapy), it just happens because humans want what we want.
