And so any kind of relationship between men and women which is not kosher al pi Torah is disgusting. Hashem hates immorality, and Anochi Hashem Elokecha means that we too hate immorality.
The nations of the world glory in immorality; they make it an ideal. The literature of the nations is nothing but men and women, love and romance; even illicit. Everything that the nations are doing is because they're following their own ideas and they're not limited to any set of ideals. They pay lip service. Yes, they have certain ideals that they claim to follow but they don't. But the Am Yisroel, when we accepted the Torah we became a holy nation because we mortgaged our minds to Hashem. From now on what Hakadosh Baruch Hu says is pure and good, that’s what we accept. What He says is tamei is tamei. And immorality ֹ̇יוָרֲﬠַּכּה≈ּב הָבּו ̇¿ּכ הָ‡¿מֻט – immorality is considered like filth, uncleanliness (Yevamos 11a).
Now to an am ha’aretz it might not be so; he tries to keep away from it because it’s forbidden but actually, to him it can be quite romantic. But to a Jew who learned, there’s no romance in whatever is not kosher. To the Jew who thinks along with Hashem, it actually smells bad.
