NOT your reasons. Reasons from THE BOOK that is called Six Reasons to Stay a Virgin by Louise Harwood, as I wrote but none of you read.

I can give you my reasons why to stay a virgin.
1. Life will be so much easier w/o having to deal with the stress of putting up with someone or trying to get someone.
2. You don't have to worry about ruining your life.
3. You don't have to worry about not trusting anyone ever again.
4. You won't have to regret what you've done.
5. You won't be a bitter old hag by the time you're 25.
6. You know that who ever is with you and stays with you really loves you.

1)STDs.
2)unwanted pregnancies.
3)Sex was meant to be an intimate thing between a married couple.
4)Ectopic pregnancies. Potentially life threatening, the mother usually bleeds out and dies.
5)No birth control-except abstinence and getting a hysterectomy/vasectomy-is completely 100% effective.
6)When a women has sex, she releases a hormone that makes her mentally attached to that person. When a man has sex, he releases a hormone that puts that moment in his memory. forever. Which can lead you to be attracted to old boyfriends/girlfriends when you don't want to be.

The ONLY reason I can think, is if your religious in some way or sort. Most religions require to stay a virgin, until your weading night. If you lose it before your married, your soposed go to hell or somthing... Bad consequences i sopose.

wait for marriage
too many diseases
bad abusive people, find a good one.
a clean feeling, not called bad names.
safety
unwanted pregnancy problems
no money to start family
I don't know what Else, but it is a good thing to be careful and not spread it around alot. too many problems and bad relationships. too many perverts and diseases. good luck. take care.

There are no good reasons for that. Sex is a gift and everyone must enjoy it.
