Opinons on "sex before marriage"?

Question

I just want to know what your opinion is.

Answer 1

As long as you love the person there's nothing wrong with it. To each his own.

Answer 2

My husband and I were both married before when we were very, very young. So, we definitely knew what it was all about. It is normal to want to "give all of yourself" when you are deeply in love with someone. However, we decided to wait until our wedding night because we are serious Christians and wanted to raise our relationship to the highest level of respect that we could. We also knew that sex before marriage was indeed sinful. Yep-----it was difficult---because we are human. But, we made it and had a wonderful honeymoon and and Godly marriage.

I suspect that you wouldn't be asking this question if you didn't have some sort of Christian upbringing.

Answer 3

It depends on your belief.. Honestly when i was younger i thought about waiting then things happen.. But now that I'm older wish i would of waited to do it with someone I really love. And know that i will spend the rest of my life with that person. Sex is the same with anyone you get with.. And doing it with someone special makes it "Love making" since you learn from each other, you teach each other.

And you know you wont catch anything because your in monogamous relationship.

My opinion is that sex before marriage could wait.. Its like this you haven't tried it so you got nothing to miss.. So just wait to find that special person. Because you'll know it will be good. Instead of doing it with anyone.

And if your not going to wait till marriage then make sue you pick the right guy that your planning to stay with him forever and in the near future marry him.

I'm all for waiting! but I'm not a hypocrite about sex before marriage. That's up to each and eveyones conscience.

Answer 4

Parents can do the best they can to instill in their children that the Bible says that sex before marriage is a sin, but in the end we are all human and giving in to the pleasures of the body happens, no matter how much we try to be strong and resist. After all there was only one Jesus!
God Bless.

Answer 5

Problematic.

From a spiritual aspect,
when 'living together' you are basically letting the devil into your house. You are giving him keys. You are committing spiritual fornication against God..and yet you are praying that your relationship would work out. When it fails, when he cheats, when you encounter struggles, you cant pray that God would fix it because you arent IN God's Will living in sin anyway. He's not going to answer your prayer to help you CONTINUE to live in sin in peace. So problems may abound. Maybe a child results. At the very least, years can be wasted with someone who after 7 years says..I think we've grown apart..because you never really grew IN GOD together towards marriage.

From the standpoint of just having sex, its kind of like mental contamination. One of the greatest barriers in marriages is comparison. Each spouse is comparing their mate to that old ex, that person that did it just like they liked...and it breeds resentment, anxiety, and insecurity in a marriage that can manifest in adultery.

I did it myself. It was wrong. I encourage my daughter not to make the same mistakes.

Answer 6

It's wrong.

For example, what if the man is saving himself for his future-wife, but his future-wife was promiscuous while he was waiting for her and thinking about her. The man would be very hurt by his wife's unfaithfulness to him. Not only that, but the man would have to worry about how he compares in performance and size. Furthermore, that man could never have that special place in his future-wife's heart: the part that another man wrongfully took from her! The man would go through life with feelings of inferiority, sorrow, anger, anxiety and insecurity, but no one would care.

Besides, what kind of a person would want to have sex with a girl who's already had another man's penis inside of her? I certainly wouldn't!

Answer 7

I've had plenty of it, and I can't say I've regretted any of it.

That being said, it's not right for everybody. It depends on your moral and religious beliefs, on your age, whether or not you're using protection (against STD's) AND birth control.

Most importantly, I can honestly say I've never had sex with someone I didn't care about. I don't believe in meaningless, random, "one night stand" type of sex. I believe it's a spiritual and emotional connection between two people and shouldn't be taken lightly.

That's my opinion, for what it's worth.

Answer 8

that all depends on if you are a virgin or not. If you are a virgin save it for your wedding night this way you go in with out any expectations every thing will be good from that point on....However if you are not a virgin I suggest that you test the waters first because if the sex does not meet your expectations the marriage is already doomed...........

Answer 9

My opinion is that people shouldn't do it. It seems that sex has become unprivate and a common topic on TV, the internet, and between friends. Sex is sacred, something that when shared between two people who are committed to one another, is like the ultimate bond of trust and acceptance. Why, when something is so awesome, would someone want to throw it to any fool they fall for.

Answer 10

A couple should have sex before marriage to eliminate any incompatible surprises.

Answer 11

SOME PEOPLE ARE BETTER AT SEX THAN OTHERS. AND ALTHOUGH YOU SHOULDN'T MARRY JUST FOR THIS REASON, IT IS GOOD TO KNOW BEFORE YOU SPEND THE REST OF YOUR LIFE WITH THAT PERSON. HONESTY...I DON'T THINK IT IS WRONG IF YOU DO IT THE RIGHT WAY. (NOT WHORING AROUND)

ARE YOU RELIGIOUS? IF YOU ARE THAN DO WHAT YOU BELIEVE!
