Christians stand against certain forms of sexual activity because of what we think sexual activity is for. It is for the building of a lifelong, committed, and intimate relationship between one man and one woman, in which complete self-giving is possible. It is not for causal or time-limited relationships, in which people often engage in modern Western culture in particular and which are often focused around entirely selfish needs and desires (even if two sets of selfish needs and desires are temporarily met in the encounter).
