Of course, morality extends beyond questions of sexuality. But sexuality is not a peripheral concern. It is anthropological. It is the very framework through which society orders the relationship between man and woman—and, in turn, how society organizes itself at scale.
At a moment when the most basic realities of human existence are being contested—when the meaning of male and female is obscured, and when marriage and the family are in visible decline—these are not marginal issues. They are foundational. Architectonic. They underwrite the possibility of social stability and human flourishing.
