Whether or not you agree with sexual promiscuity or open, liberated sexually (however you personally view it) or not, do you really believe that promiscuous men and/or women are bad people? I'm curious to see varying opinions. I think people see things too stereotypically, too narrow-mindedly and judge others too harshly and I wonder what you all think. Do you have any other ideas about what defines a person as 'bad'?

What IS important is when promiscuous behavior makes you a menace -- as when someone spreads disease, or actively opposes the dissemination of information/warnings regarding such risks (presumably because it potentially limits their sexual prospects, or simply makes them feel unwanted shame).
Or when you kill any babies that result from your actions.
Sin is separate and distinct from sinners. The first choice is probably the closest to the truth on this issue, but make the statement that they are "bad people". People are just people. They aren't good or bad. In fact, it is believed that they are good by nature. All persons are attacked by evil. We have varying degrees to which we cooperate with evil. This is the whole trick to morality. Working hard to not cooperate with evil. To lower ones level of concupiscence. When we pray, and when we put up a fight, and trust in the Lord we are rewarded in two ways. First, the attacks by evil are more often held at bay to begin with, and secondly, when they occur, we are strengthened by the sacrament in resisting the temptations. I think you'll find more often than not, the promiscuous are not likely engaging in daily heartfelt prayer, and have decided not to fight temptation at any deeply sincere level. This does not make them bad people. We are all made in the image and likeness of God. It means at this time in their life they are either low on spiritual strength, understanding of moral principles, or both. It is a recoverable state with love, guidance, and education.
Though, I must admit, the stuff you censor on your TV is considered prudish by even our standards.
You live your way, I'll live mine. I don't see this a a moral issue, but purely as a health issue - public health issue, as it will ultimately involve your spouse and/or kids.
