无论你是否有宗教信仰，无论你是否相信神，这都无关紧要。在未婚的情况下，根本不存在所谓的“安全性行为”。如果你与对方之间没有婚姻文书作为保障，你就完全受制于那个人，一旦发生任何事情，无论是意外、蓄意还是恶意的，几乎没有人能够帮助你。这关乎生死，是最字面意义上的生死攸关：无论是可能孕育新的生命，也就是一个人的诞生，还是感染危及生命的疾病，又或是任何其他可能的情感、身体或性方面的伤害，抑或这一切的总和。

It doesn’t matter if you are religious or not, or if you believe in God or not. There is no such thing as “safe sex” if you are not married. If there is no paper involved between you and whoever you are sleeping with, you are at the mercy of that person and there is very little anyone can do to help you if something happens, be it accidental, deliberate, or malicious. This is a matter of life and death in the most literal sense, whether you are talking about the potential to create life, i.e., a human being, or the contraction of life threatening diseases, or any other kind of possible emotional, physical, or sexual abuse, or all of the above.

这曾经是常识。这曾经是常识。可现在，只要指出这一点，就会被扣上"宗教原教旨主义者、关掉了脑子、不懂人权和性自主价值"之类的帽子，等等等等。人怎么能瞎到这个地步？大家真的就这么难理解吗？

This used to be common knowledge. This used to be common sense. But now, just pointing this out means you’re a religious fundamentalist who has turned off his brain and doesn’t understand human rights and the value of sexual autonomy, and blah blah blah. How blind can you be? Is this really so hard for people to understand?
