I know it must seem shocking that there are some who don't feel the need for an extrinsic motivation to be decent, equitable people, but there are. And whenever people start tossing around loaded terms like "moral/immoral", particularly in discussions about sex and sexuality, some of us see that as a huge dog-whistle, and start waiting for religious-right loons like Shelly Lubben, Judith Reisman, et al to start being referenced.
