Perhaps from a Christians look on this, not necessarily a medical, what is your take on this?

Question

If you want to report me for this Q, please have the courtesy of messaging me and telling me why?

If a male and a female who are virgins, engage in everything but penetration, both reaching climax, do you believe they are still virgins?
And what if someone who is married, does the same as above with another man or woman than their spouse, - - Have they committed adultry?

And why Yes or No for your A?

And what Faith are you pls?

Loris-Anne, what is Adultery's defining thing that makes this different to the 1st couple?

I believe and taught my son along these lines:
Song of Solomon 2:7
Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you by the gazelles and by the does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires.
Put in simple -(for me) terms, Don't get involved in heavy kissig/petting before your married.
I was so blessed as God forgave me and gave me a fresh beautiful start and time whilst I was married, though my ex never really gave his heart to the Lord and played around and left.
So I was able to teach my darling teenager from a little experience.

Answer 1

Classically Vaginal Intercourse is what would bring about a loss of Virginity. So I would say that they are technically still Virgins, but the fact that they both came to Ejaculation implies Sexual Gratification, so Morally/Spiritually they have given up their Virginity.


On the Second Question, I would say just the same, and add that they are committing Adultery, even without Vaginal Penetration, because they are engaging in a type of Sexual Gratification with another not their Spouse.

Answer 2

I believe that if both these virgins reached sexual climax, that no, they are no longer virgins. Why? B/c penetration is not the only defining characteristic of someone who has lost their virginity. I think that one reason people should be extra careful around the opposite sex (when they're not married, of course) is b/c even though there might not be sexual intercourse, they shouldn't be having certain experiences until after they are married.

As for the other couple. If one cheats on his/her spouse, then yes, that is adultery, even if there is no penetration....it most definetely IS adultery.

Oh, and I am a Christian, by the way...since you asked. =)

God bless.

Answer 3

Although this question is quite bizarre and slightly disturbing, I shall answer this in a subtle way as possible.

It is least likely for one to remain a virgin after reaching climax. The male may still be considered a virgin, but the female? The male needs to stimulate the female genitalia in order for her to reach climax, thus the need for SLIGHT penetration.

About the second question, why would you do such an act to another? Personally speaking, have you done this yourself? Hmm. Yes. Quite vague, but yes. Any sexual act beyond the contract of marriage is considered adultery, regardless of faith or race. People often relate that term with sexual intercourse, which is not true.

I'm agnostic, by the way.

Answer 4

Was raised in the Greek Orthodox Church for which I am eternally grateful. But at this time I distance myself for some
of its teachings for various Biblical reasons. I am deeply
committed to the Lord Jesus.

If unmarried people engage in any type of sexual intimacy, penetration or no, they do not commit adultery. They commit fornication. But the sin is just as serious.

1Cr 6:18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

If one or both are married and they engage in sexual intimacy
penetration or no they are committing adultery if they are
not married to one another.

Galatians 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are [these]; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

Galatians 5:20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

Galatians 5:21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told [you] in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

Galqtians 5:23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

Please notice that adultery and fornication are near the top of the list of all these viles sins.

But thank God Almighty for 1 John 1:9.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

I Cr 13;8a

Answer 5

This is a disputed question between people in every faith. I personally believe that they are not still virgins, because i think that sex is any action that gives you any kind of sexual pleasure. This raises the question,"how far is too far", when it comes to sex.

As for the married couple, I believe it is adultery, because you are engaging in sexual activity with a person other than your partner.

As for my faith, I am a Christian "Baptist".

Answer 6

Yes! ofcourseO.o None of this gray area bussiness, if you want to be a virgin, dont take your pants of. And yes its adultry, the other person would be hurt if they found out. Just kissing is adultry for me. But maybe its just me

I use to be an atheist, but now I'm agnostic, combined with a whole bunch of princples from diffrent religons

Answer 7

Although physically, the first pair remain virgin; having not penetrated, they form a spiritual union
As for the second pair, they have indeed committed spiritual adultury by betraying the trust of a spouse
I am a nom denoninational Christian

Answer 8

In the first case, I'd say no. Loss of virginity is defined by having sexual intercourse. But in the second case I'm leaning "yes," because even though it isn't technically adultery it is still a huge betrayal of the spouse's trust. It is unfaithful.

I am Christian, no denomination.

Answer 9

in both cases, adultery is committed. the bible defines adultery as having carnal desire/activities with a man/woman who is not your spouse.

if you are not married to each other, you are no longer clean and innocent because your persons have been tarnished by the acts of adultery.

but God is forgiving...

Answer 10

I am born again christian.
No, they are not. It dosn't need to have genitals to do it.
They both engage and explore sexual experience together.
To a married people, YES. As a married you can only have one partner and that partner is your spouse.
Dating outside of your marriage is consider as adultary. How much more regarding your question.
