"Which acts are you alluding to, which social ills do they contribute to, and please cite some facts about the alleged correlation."

hmmm...I don't what to fall to far into tedium, as discussing all possible acts and connections to social ills is beyond my grasp at the moment. I hope you will allow a simple illustration. Hypothetical, yet I hope you will agree not unfounded.

A man is attracted to a female coworker at work and the attraction is mutual. The female gets pregnant by this man. She wants to keep the baby and does. The man is married with small children in his own home. The man finds that he has contracted the deadly form of herpes from his coworker. The man's wife seeks divorce but the man is contesting it. She ends up suicidal over the dilema. There is increasing domestic angst between the married couple and the female coworker is having difficulty at work because the male has been promoted to a supervisory position and they are now estranged. The children of the married couple are now witnessing episodes of raging anger in the home and they are having conflict resolution problems with their peers at school. The counsellor feels it is coming from unresolved issues within the home.

alleged correlation...?
