Here's an oldie but goodie debate topic.. :P


Do you believe that sex before marriage is wrong? Why or why not?
 
No, because it's not the parents' lives. It's the child's.

That being said, a person who's going to do the deed had better be aware of the dangers involved with unprotected sex. I would absolutely refuse to have sex with someone who refuses to use birth control along with me.
 
I've never been married and I am not a virgin, so I guess that answers that.

But I can respect people for wanting to uphold tradition and keep sex a sacred thing between only a husband and wife... Seems reasonable in theory I suppose. Sex can still be sacred and special between a committed non-married couple too. I guess it all depends on how you look at things.
 
Well it took me until I was 21 to have sex.

Maybe that's good?
 
I cannot go into this debate, because my family is Christian and we believe in no sex before marriage.

There's protection you know. (condoms)
 
Sex is a natural thing, I don't see why people should wait till they are married. But then again I never want to be married.
 
To me there's no right or wrong. It's up to the individuals involved if it's right or wrong for them.

Oh and the first time I had sex I got the girl pregnant. Thank god she's my girlfriend. :rofl:
 
It happens.

On the topic of this topic however I used to always want to have sex after marriage.
 
People always take a stand against what they really want, then give in after a while. :P
 
In my personal view sex requires strong commitment to the partner, not just on a physical level but also on an emotional level. In which case, I think marriage provides a pretty reasonable stipulation as it should [should] require an incredible level of commitment from both partners. Like Nebulous said this is all in theory, there are cases where the marriage is there, but the commitment is not (ex: convenience marriages and shotgun weddings).

With premarital sex there is no definite right or wrong for every situation, it just depends on the individuals' level of commitment and maturity. Though, I will say that I don't approve of it. I think it is always better to wait.

I know. I'm saying, those who don't use it had better be prepared for consequences.
