Not getting pregnant?
Not picking up an STD?
Those having been said, I gotta say: In this day and age, you would be stupid to marry the first guy who
"does his thing," if you will.
I don't condone running out and having sex with every dude who crosses your path, but psychologically, I would wait 'til I felt I was old enough to understand and enjoy sex, tread cautiously, then make my decision.
You're freakin' young. My ex-wife (a German I met in the service in '89) was a year and a half older than me and a virgin when I met her. And I was only 20.
I don't know. I'm not a woman. And by the way, I'm white, I just love my avatar. But I say tread lightly into the non-virgin world.
Unless, of course, it's a religious issue. Then, go talk to your priest. Rabbi. Minister. Shaman. Whomever.
P.S. I remarried five ears ago, have a beautiful 3-year old, and we're expecting our second kid.

No regrets, ever. No STDS, no unplanned pregnancies, no second thoughts. No becoming one (soul ties) with a jerk and then wondering why you can't just dump him even though he treats you like crap.
I stayed a virgin until my wedding night, and there has never been one time in my life where I have thought, "Did I miss out? Does he love me just for my body? Did he marry me just bcz I was pregnant?" We are now going on 10 years of marriage (I am only 29), which is almost unheard of these days.
#1 Reason - You're worth waiting for. If he doesn't think so, he's not worth anything.

So that you don't regret your first time.
I'm still a virgin (I'm only 20), but I'm not waiting for marriage or anything mushy or "fairytale ending" like that--- I am just truly waiting for a guy I know that I can trust to not be a total douchebag.
A lot of my friends around me say they wish they would have waited, and it reassures me everyday that I'm making the absolute right choice.
I think mostly it's about being in control of something in my life. There are a lot of things that are just out of my hands, but I still got one more thing to hold onto that's mine.
At the end of the day you will do whatever you want to do, but make sure it's your choice, otherwise you'll end up wishing you hadn't.

The best reason is that I have heard alot of girls go through some real B.S. with there boyfriends (if thats what they want to call them). I would stay a virgin so that I can find the right guy, the older I get, I think It would be more rewarding to find someone whose truly into me to be my first. (Im 20) Usually, MEN want to marry someone thats still a virgin...I dont know why...but then agian thats what I heard...Another way I stay this way is scare tactics...ALL THOSE STDs UUUUUUUUGH!

I made a vow to God and its an honor to the man I plan to marry.
*Just think of it this way Its too much going around out there any way you are not missing anything but iching and burning lol and
* its honorable to yourself......
*when meet the right person and truly fall in love it will be a making love and have meaning not just screwing
*Also most women develop cevical cancer from sleeping around. Because your body is not made to be with different men on a regular basis
*you never have to worry about unwanted pregnancy
*and you can see dudes from your past with your man now and not feel funny
Girl women like us are rare hold on to it
Toodles

Besides the fact that I REALLY don't want to get pregnant yet, here's my reasoning:
When I finally meet the man I will spend the rest of my life with, I want him to have something special that I've never given anyone before. It doesn't seem fair to me that some guy you're with for a few months gets the same things as a man who promises to love you until the day he dies. I want something special to give my husband that I can't give to anyone else, and that no one else can give to him. Can you think of a better wedding present?

How about:
If you're not at least 16 (in some states) or 18 (in most other states) somebody could go to jail...
Then there's pregnancy, possible physical and/or emotional injury, about a dozen different diseases, some of which cannot be cured.
But you only asked for one, and I've overdone it.
Good luck!

Think about sexually transmitted infections like AIDS,Syphilis,Gonorrhea,Chlamydia,Trichomonas Vaginalis...need I say more? It is either you wait for the right guy and for the right time to do it or get dripped..And oh,being a virgin is a choice..protected sex is a must..

Personally, for me, there is no reason to stay a virgin. Not unless I was religious or if I was scared of sex or something.
I can think of 100 reasons to NOT stay a virgin, though. Life is short and multi orgasms are amazing. Sex is one if not THE greatest pleasure in life. I feel sorry for people who don't know that. They are seriously missing out.
