How is "sex is vile" a neoliberal idea? Liberals advocate for sexual freedom, acceptance, and diversity in sexual practices and identities. As opposed to conservatives, who generally hold "traditional" views on sex, emphasizing abstinence, marriage, and restriction of sexual content.
there's a significant gap between "liberal" and "neoliberal". one embraces freedom of the individual, the other one sees the world as a big market, puts a price tag on everything, and wants people to be "productive" (a.k.a. at work) instead of wasting their time with unproductive sex or interpersonal relationships.
a conservative would also called sex acts vile too.
