Elaborating on Mary Beth’s comments, it seems to me that this was the beginning of our modern approach to sex.  Today’s parents, teachers, and church leaders often discourage the acts under pretenses of science as well as sin.  As noted, this was a somewhat new idea.  –Andrew B

Andrew, I'm not entirely sure that's true. In some cases, absolutely, but I have had many discussions with my brother, a US Public Health official, about whether or not schools should teach safe sex over abstinence. It's certainly a mindset that is being leaned towards by more and more schools, and I think even a lot of religious groups are beginning to realize that trying to bring science alongside religion is often a poor idea. Maybe it's just the church I went to, but we are able to talk pretty frankly in college-age youth group back home about this kind of stuff. Thankfully, we're not festering in the 19th century anymore with morality. -Cash
