I know that some may be offended by this sexual question but a lot of people have sex without a relationship with a stranger and I am wondering what this would mean morally if it means anything morally.

Is having sex without a relationship aka a one time thing a Morally wrong thing and if so why ?

Depends on your morality. In my view, if it will hurt no one and the participants are willing then it's no problems. Others will see it differently

Is there a reason the word "Morally" is capitalized?
Why does it matter whether or not it's morally wrong?

The question is thoughtlessly or intentionally vague.
Cheating on a partner is dishonest.
Having sex with a non-consenting stranger is abuse.
Having sex with a stranger whose consent is meaningless die to age or mental disability is abuse.
Are you being sophomoric, morally ambiguous, or both?
Morality of sexual relations is dependent on individual, cultural, and societal standards.
It's not capitalized in the OP. Maybe read and respond to that rather than just reading the title?
As long as all parties understand what's going on and are into it, I don't think there's any issue at all.
Matter to whom?
If you are asking if it matters to the OP, then I would say that it matters enough to them to have created a thread asking the question.
What do you mean by "relationship" exactly?
Personally, I'm not seeing how to humans can fornicate without a relationship. Whenever two humans interact with each other in any way, they are in some sort of relationship with one another. Beyond that, whenever two beings of any kind interact with each other in any way, that's a relationship - a connection. That's all a relationship is - a connection, an interaction.
So what kind of relationship? A lifelong mating partnership? Fornication buddies? Emotionally deep and substantive? Superficial and passing? Abuser and victim?

Check all the boxes you want. I basically don't see the usefulness of the concept of morality, mainly because it doesn't achieve anything for society in the way that science, laws (state/government), and money/trade do.

It matters to me because some religious people or most view it as wrong.

That is relative as per a given moral code in my opinion.

To the OP & I'm asking "why", not "if".

I didn't mean it to be veauge but since you are wanting it to be more specific let's say that the two people were both consenting and were not already in a relationship or married would it still be wrong then ?

It was on fire when I laid down on it.
I am a Christian and I believe that sex outside of marriage is morally wrong. That being said, I don't believe I should be able to force my beliefs on someone else, especially politically, so though I don't personally have sex outside of marriage, I believe that any actions between consenting adults (who are able to consent, of course) should be legal.

Yes, for religious folks, sex out of marriage is wrong.
Are you, yourself, religious? I, myself, make it explicit that I am not religious.

I said it in the post and I will say it again since you don't understand I am mostly talking about fornication buddys and one night stands. Not an actual intimate emotional relationship.

And so what? I mean, I don't have to like it but I have enough to do keeping my own self straight without worrying much about other adults.
