Are people still that puritanical that they care about somebody else's sexual activity?

Yes. Many people devote their entire personalities towards policing other people's sex lives. Just look at the hatred towards LGBTQ people that continues to go on and on. It never went away, it just got pushed back, often to largely rural areas. Look at the transphobia of the past 15 or so years. That's all based in the same nonsense.

Even amongst the LGBTQ community, you have the recent "kink at Pride" drama, but there are also decades old issues like gay men using the same homophobia used on them by straight guys against bi men - or saying that they're not part of the community if they're dating a woman.
