How sad that we live in a world where we are forced to make lust only infrequently, and with only 1 person at a time....and we even must learn the name of that person beforehand....*sigh.
Kidding.
Mostly
Here are my thoughts...There's nothing intrinsically wrong with living a conservative life of "promiscuous" abstinence nor with a life of sexual freedom. The frequency and total number of partners isn't what's important. The thing that matters is what one brings into the encounter and how much the person chooses to put in. (no pun). The amount of love a person has to offer and is willing to accept doesn't depreciate with time and with the number of sexual partners. In fact, it is possible to have a healthy sexual libido It is not as if one actively chose this over love, rather the person is choosing this in the meantime of finding love in place of a total void of intimacy. You would be hard pressed to find people who aren't looking for love, but people don't find that love on a snap of their fingers. In the time that is spend without this love, one has only two options; be alone or be with someone, however casual. To some people, engaging in casual sexual relations with a lotta people just feels good and sometimes its better than being alone and jerking off.
Another point. There is a time and place for everything. The younger we are, the more opportunities we have and the more things we can "get away" with that we wouldn't once we are adults. In my case, I'm a 20 year old college student going to a huge public university with tons of good looking, eager, horny kids. I would be crazy not to take advantage of my libido and have some fun while I am here. Am I looking for a relationship? Sure, but like I said, that doesn't just drop out of the sky on my demand and in the meantime, I'm meeting new people and making new friends while, as some people would call it, whoring myself across campus. I'm facebook friends with the good majority of people I have hooked up with, and it's a good feeling to know that I have friends of that caliber who I can enjoy a physical friendship with along with a regular friendship.
