Why is sex and innocence opposites in our society?

Why isn't sex innocent? Why aren't young people taught to embrace sex and their sexuality? Why do we put such a stigma on it? OR do you feel it hasn't been stigmatized?

    Jul 10 2012: Hi Koreen.
    Sex is designed to be the ultimate union between a man & a woman. It serves two purposes; one to produce children, & two, to maintain a stable loving relationship in which the children can mature. This view is widely ignored today, & we pay the price in broken marriages & confused children, but each individual can make their own choice as to what they want in their life.
    Sex can be innocent in the correct environment, but if it is abused then the conscience kicks in & takes the fun out of it. I have been happily married 38 years, & know of what I speak.

    :-)
