Many examples worldwide of people getting married happily and successfully without extended courting, cohabitation, and premarital relations. And you are free

  Sure, there's many examples of many things, but that's not really significant. The point of being free to court, cohabit and have relations is that you're also free not to do those things. Why restrict other people from doing what they want in this context just because you don't want to? Yeah but I'm OK with it, and I kept coming back because you never address the central issue. Why do other people have to moderate themselves because of your desires? I doubt you'll read this but here's a simple thought experiment. If you went away on vacation and came back and found that everyone in your office had decided to work wearing only underwear, for how long exactly would this bother you and prevent work? I reckon I'd be distracted for maybe 5 minutes. I've seen all there is to see already, as has every other adult in the room. Desire should come from intimacy and possibility, not from seeing someone dressed in what is, in your opinion, provocative. What about the people who find moderate dress sexy and overtly sexy clothing a turn off, where do they exist in your world?
