Yep. That's the way God set it up. No STD's, no unwed mothers, no broken hearts. God designed us, so He knows how we operate best, but do we listen? Nope. We think we know better than He does. So, we pay the price, and so do our children. What a shame....

Yes. Sex creates an emotional bond especially for a woman and waiting for marriage protects us from being scarred emotionally. It also protects (when the two persons are loyal to each other) against the spread of VD. Sex outside of marriage is not love, but animalistic. Sex is supposed to be a highly spiritual thing between two persons who are committed for life.

Hmmm !!!! this is interesting...I have seen several answers below that are a poor excuse for not waiting ...i.e marraige is just a piece of paper and secondly...what if you are not sexually compatable ....you have to try several ppl out first I assume ??
If marriage is just a piece of paper I assume Divorce is "just a piece of paper" based on that reasoning ..so whats the problem with being married? and if you are not sexually compatable with the person , how many do you "try out "before you find "the right one" ? do you become a sl*t in the process of trying to find the most sexually compatable male ever ? , and how many disieses do you pick up on the way or how many pregnancies and abortions do you have in your quest to find the perfect sex mate ?
Sounds like a male promoted idea, so men can have several sexual partners and not have to be committed to one , and silly women buy that theory, though deep down in their heart they are longing for committment.
Marriage is NOT just a piece of paper (contrary to popular belief) it is a comittment that you love each other and want to spend your life together, it is an emotional bond , a declaration that you love and care for this person alone , that they are your world, your partner, and # 1 in your eyes.
Men keep getting away with this argument because women let them. If women stood their ground more , and wont give men sex unless they marry them , I tell you men would be alot more respectful of and to women , and women would also respect themselves more .
There's no way I would EVER have sex before marriage , and if my bf cant cope with that, then he didnt love me to begin with, he's just thinking of himself and his own pleasure.......
Listen ..bottom line .....if I'm not good enough to marry.... then I'm not good enough to sleep with....I'm not going to let myself be used that way by these false ideas floating around ...
The world would definately be a better place if people waited till marriage to have sex.

I think the fate of the world has very little to do with whether or not people wait to have sex. Speaking in terms of disease and unwanted pregnancy, the social issues involved, the world would be better off if people protected themselves properly when choosing to have sex. Marriage has nothing to do with it.

Yes--if not marriage, at least a committed relationship--and not because of any superstitious reasons. Seeing how difficult it is for single mothers to manage, I wish they had waited until they were financially stable enough to support a family before having one. I care about them, don't get me wrong, but I also don't think it's fair that the rest of us should have to pay to raise their families.
Support birth control and common sense.

yes. In many Asian cultures, young adults have practiced abstinence and have more self control. They have more self esteem and greater focus towards achieving their goals. Their marriages last longer unlike those in Western societies. There is less disease and unwanted pregnancies. The benefits to society at large are much greater if people waited until after marriage.

No and I have a good reason.
To some people sex is important. It is so important that they would be willing to cheat if their spouse did not make them content. If their spouse refused to give certain sexual favors, then maybe he/she would go elsewhere. So, it is better to try each other sexually before marriage n case you are not sexually compatible.
Some will say that sex is not important at all... well, those are the girls who will be cheated on by their husbands. Sorry but that is life no matter if you like it or not.

face reality. that is never gonna happen. people are obsessed with sex, and that is speaking from experience. with my first husband we waited, being a upstanding christian. lol. my second husband and current we did not wait, for i discovered sex with my first. he left me a widow. so now i think that what you want will never happen. that is living in a dream world. humanity has forsaken tradition.

I think that if people were just more mature about who they had sex with then things would be better, but I myself would not what to spend the rest of my life with someone that I could not enjoy being intimate with

No. Why would you, or anyone, think such a thing? Sex was invented a long time before marriage was.
