I believe that you have a major misinterpretation of the biblical writings. Sex with someone not your wife was commonly accepted as legal in many cases in the bible.
Male sex with multiple woman not their wife is openly legal in the biblical writings.
The actual limitations that I recall is that:
1) A person should not be "promiscuous" (have had a multitude of sexual partners in short order).
2) A priest could only marry a virgin bride.
2) You should not have sex with biological siblings, parents/children, grandparents/grandchildren, both a mother/daughter(dad/son) pair, Sister/brother in law (with an exception if your brother dies childless - where as a family property rights exception exist for ensuring that your sister in law has a child to inherit), two sisters/or two brothers, 1st cousins, and perhaps a few other situations.
It says nothing about it being improper at least for males to have sex with other ladies outside of those groupings (and if fact authorizes sex with female slaves that you either own or your family provides for you).
If you read both some of the oldest books of the Old Testament, and some of the books of the Bible that were removed from the 2nd edition of the King James bible (they were in the 1st version) you will know that there are a number of cases where wives had sex outside of marriage without any punishment (and was in at least one case considered a hero for it).
You have a major misinterpretation of the biblical writings, in that you do not understand that the Bible gives moral authority to the Church, and the Church has said these things.
Please point out the scriptures that says that (I've got at least 8 if not 10 or 12 different versions of the bible in my house to cross check the different interpretations).
I've also read the entire bible (every word), along with a number of seminary school textbooks on possible different interpretations and meanings and other religious concepts; and have 6 yellow pads of notes and observations.
Do you think partners should help pay for birth control pills?

Also which Church are you referring too?
