It is to a Catholic.
But, in about 1930 (see my other post) the Anglican Church accepted non-procreative sex as a "bonding" activity. Other religions followed suit.
Marriage (to a Catholic) is a sacrament that includes having children and raising them to be Catholic. It also includes sex as "recreation," but denounces artificial contraception as a worldly interference in heavenly affairs (not to mention, a sin.)
Function before fashion.
