Religion and heterosexuality Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description

Religious views on heterosexuality, sexual conduct and sexual morality vary widely by culture, group, faith, etc.

Different-sex sexuality, and specifically procreation, is currently viewed as the ideal by some members of the Abrahamic religions, which many argue have a long history of persecuting same-sex sexuality so as to encourage different-sex sexuality. The Old Testament prohibits different-sex adultery and different-sex intercourse during menses (Lev.15: 19-24). They sanction monogamous and committed different-sex relationships with marriage.

Since the sexual revolution western different-sex sexuality has been almost completely divorced from procreation and other traditional and/or religious priorities because of economic factors and feminism. The strength of the conservative movement in the eighties draws part of its inspiration from the negative reaction to these changes from religious conservatives. They argue for an end, sometimes legal, to abortion, birth control, and nonprocreative sex, as well as divorce.
