What do you think?

Question

Even if you don't belive in God and the Bible, isn't saving your virginity until marriage a very good thing?

Answer 1

Yes. Your virginity is a gift. You should only share it with one special person. Sex isn't a toy, it involves emotions. Emotions that you have when you are married. Although I do think you should believe in God, it's best to save your virginity.

Answer 2

I feel teenagers and young adults should wait until they are in a loving and committed relationship before letting go of their virginity. For some, such a relationship is marriage, and that is perfectly fine. For others (especially if they are high school juniors and seniors, or college students) even though they are in loving and committed relationships, marriage is either a legal or financial impossibility or a far way off (such as after college graduation and getting a good job). If they can wait for marriage, then I say they should; but if they can't, there is no reason they should withhold such an intimate way of expressing love for each other.

Now, I do believe in marriage (I am married) and I strongly recommend marriage before having children and starting a family. Every child deserves to be in a home with both a mother and a father who love each other. This may not be the reality of our world, but nonetheless every child deserves such a home, and if people believe they can provide this, they should; and if they can't, they should refrain from having children. However, I will admit, each and every child is a blessing, no matter how they come into this world. I simply recommend marriage before having a child. It's a much better situation.

Thanks for asking such a good question!

Answer 3

i personally think that it takes a very special and very very strong person to do that. not so much because of temptation or peer pressure or any of that but i would be a little scared of being married to someone and THEN finding out that they are sexually deviant in some way. Imagine wandering into your honeymoon sweet to find whips and chains..eeeek!! But i also believe that sex binds you to someone forever, weather you want it to or not and so you better be absolutly sure that the person is worth that, and someone that you could be bound to forever. I am happy with the decisions i made concerning sex (for the most part) and i did not wait until i was married. It's a hard thing to do and i applaud those who do it. The only problem i have is with those who save sex for marriage, and get married because they are horny and just want to have sex and then find out that this person is horrible and end up divorced. Then maybe they should have known each other better, and maybe should have slept together first and saved themselves the horribleness of divorce..especially if they have kids first.

Answer 4

It is a very good thing. Virginity shouldn't have anything to do with religion.

I don't agree that everyone should have to wait until marriage, but people should at least wait until they are adults right? Waiting until you are 18 really isn't that big of a deal is it? If the person you are with now is really the person you want to spend your life with, then what's a couple of years without sex?

Answer 5

I don't believe in God and the Bible but I still think you should save your virginity until marraige. Your virginity isn't someting to just give to anyone, it should be to someone who loves, respects, and cares about you and you should also love respect, and care about the person you give it to.

Answer 6

Yes it is. I didn't have sex before I got married. And now I am have twins and giving births to Quads tomorrow. Save your virginity for the right guy that you are in love with. Don't have unprotected sex either, until you want a child of course. Be smart, go to school, and do what you think is right. It is okay to make mistakes but make sure you can handle the out come of it.

Answer 7

Yea, it's more a moral thing. I think it just save you a lot of heartache and responsibility that most of these kids are taking on at a young age! Save it until marriage is always a good choice!

Answer 8

I think saving yourself until you are in love is a good thing. I didn't wait till marriage and I don't regret it in the least bit.

Answer 9

i believe in God and the Bible, but even if i didnt, i would save it for marriage anyway

Answer 10

Saving your virginity isn't a 'religious' thing but to some it's just a moral responsibility they feel they have.

Answer 11

At least till your very near adulthood. Its a safety issue therefore thats how its considered by legal people and religious people who are a little different.
