The right wing cares about women having pre-marital sex because that is against their religious teachings and they think everyone should conform to their beliefs. They don't care so much about males having pre-marital or extra-marital sex.
If sexual abstinence is adopted as a method of birth control then both women AND men are "prevented" from having sex.

But as abstinence is entirely voluntary, the word "prevent" is inaccurate and misleading. Like saying that a tea-totaller is "prevented" from drinking alcohol.

Whether people abstain from sex for religious or other reasons, one thing for sure - it's a 100% guaranteed way to avoid becoming pregnant!

You seem to live in a dream world where women are perpetually controlled and victimised by men.

Nothing is further from the truth, but perhaps you enjoy luxuriating in victimhood?
