    whaddaya mean, "is it O.K.?!" Like it or not, it happens all the time. There are plenty who also choose to not marry. This is O.K. too.

    The stats for diseases, abortions, breakdown of family, etc. are a result of all the screwing around, so common sense says it's not the right thing to be doing. The consequences are too horrendous

    Absence till marriage isn't for everybody. So have some sex and enjoy yourself before you tie the knot.

    Ok my serious moment...
    There are some who chose to wait till marriage and those who don't. As long as you are responsible and protect yourself and your partner I don't see a problem. I am not for pregnancy before marriage oddly enough...

    On humanities slide back to the swamp intellectuals and sociologists today feel free to ignore both modern sociological data, classic philosophical truth, and basic rules for preservation of the species. First the data: Couples who live together before marriage have a higher divorce rate than those who wait. As premarital sex has increased divorce, domestic abuse, std's, infertility have all gone up sharply. Now the philosophy: natural law, religion, and basic moral teaching recognize that faithful marriage is necessary for social stablity. Lastly the biological imperative: In developed countries the birth rate is falling below replacement levels and children are testing (phyically, mentally, socially) below their parents. But sex now and with whomever is fun (for a few minutes,) so ingore facts, history, and evolution and enjoy the slide to oblivion.

    As long as you're being responsible, and you are not a young teenager doing it because "everyone else is" or because you'll be made fun of because you're a "virgin". It's not a bad thing. Losing your virginity when you're 13 doesn't make you cool.

    YOU NEVER KNOW WHO GOING TO BE A GOOD WIFE OR GOOD HUSBAND. SEX IS FUN.

    Answered no

    The correct answer is NO, but most of us do any ways. Me honestly I would rather find out how a person is in that specific department {if you know what I mean} before I get married than after, because what if I wait? I know we're to trust God in this situation, but there's always a BUT. Like what if you were to get married and your sex life is disappointing not only would you be married but you'll be miserable, so I say why not get a sample, so you can know if you want it.

    Not everyone believes in god and needs to listen to what he says is right. It can still be intimate without being after marriage. I know i wouldn't want to wait that long.

    Ya know that anytime we get a fun subject, all the fanatics have gotta tell us that we have to follow thier religious beliefs.

    Of course, sex with yourself (or some fun toys) is okay anytime! But a bunch of religious nuts will also try to argue against that too! (yeah, like they never touch themselves! lol)
  • raves     [-] the floacist replied to emily
    "to listen to what he says is right."

    God has never directly spoken to people, lol. It is the Bible, which was written by men, who deemed it as a sin.

    Missing the point. The emotional growth of the male for the female is based on time, as they slowly grow together by getting to know each other. While the female develops a mental attachment over time, the male will do this also if there is still the drive to access the ultimate gift from the woman. Once the gift is unwarped, the emotional growth stops. The "free love" moment sounds great, full of total freedom, it depends upon what you want from your encounter, decide then reach for the goal.

    The bible says no but I do not follow that book because It was written by a bunch of dudes who never walked with the God they are talking about. Sex is a great thing and you should have a lot of it. Don't let the powers of Organized Superstition ruin your night.

    It's not like God is going to strike a lightening bolt down on you if you do have sex before marriage, but it does say in His word that you should have no sexual immorality at all, not even a spot. and He clearly defines that sex should be between husband and wife.

    Answered yes

    Of course, as long as you are responsible and safe. We are now in the 2000's, not in the 1920's. With divorce rate so high to begin with, at least you can make sure that you are compatible in at least one area.
  • raves +1   [-] by Lizzy

    Answered yes

    Yes, but don't be sleeping with everyone you see. It will help to have sex before hand because you will be a little more experience, how will you please your man if you don't know how to. Or know what works or not. But ultimately it's upto the individual, do what you want do!

    Its perfectly okay. Trust me I've tried it plenty of times!!
  • raves     [-] by ivabigun

    Answered yes

    You should try it out first.This will lower the divorse rate. Marriage does not have anything to do with the hunk of paper. It exists before the ceremony. If you don't know this, you are lost!
  • raves +1   [-] Kristy replied to ivabigun
    ivabigun .....Your assumptions that having sex before marriage will lower the divorce rates are way off! If anything it is just the complete opposite. People have been doing it before marriage for a very long time and and the divorce rate is still climbing! Divorce rates were at their lowest 50 years ago when the majority of people still held sex within marriage as the norm. Since the "free love" sixty's when sex before marriage become the norm, divorce rates continue to escalate! It is so easy to see the correlation between the two!

    People will survive having sexual intercourse before the protective bounds of marriage, but only within these bounds are you protected by the love of your mate.
  • raves +1   [-] by Kristy

    Answered no

    NEVER before marriage, under any circumstances! "Thou shalt not comit adultry" or anything like unto it, is still God's commandment whether you agree or not. It makes perfect sense and a loving Heavenly Father gave us this commandment for our own good. I have been happily married for many years and my husband and I have raised a family upon that commandment. It truly does pay off in so many ways to wait until marriage. Besides being obedient to God's commandment, other benifits are ... no worries of transmitted diseases, babies being raised by single Mom's and a very high trust level between husband and wife during marriage. Come on guys, have some self control .. we're not animals!! Waiting until after marriage makes sex even that much more speical and treasured!
