In this day and age, sex is everywhere. It’s just a click of a button away. Most adults can access it virtually within a few seconds if they own a smartphone–if you even consider that sex. In the religious sphere, there is a notion that sex should be saved for after marriage. That sex, in and of itself, with another person is enough to infer that two people are married.

With this line of reasoning, sex can be viewed as a sort of non-verbal contract with another human being. Therefore, within a democracy, you have the right to have sex and the right to abstain. At its fairest point, there should never be coercion when you sign a contract. You should be familiar with the terms and have a clear understanding of what you’re getting into.

Within an organization, sex can operate similarly. Take college, for instance, the act of two adults having sex is a form of contract that is more-or-less being monitored by your peers, assuming the two people having it are reasonably social beings. Thus, in many ways, when you have sex in college, you are signing a metaphorical contract not just with the other individual with whom you are having sex with, but also with the other people he or she is connected to.

So, what if you are not satisfied with the environment and the people that you are surrounded by? Then, in that case, you simply need to withhold sex, and if the community does not understand, then it’s really not a worthwhile group to be a part of anyways.
