Opinion: Is it better to be a virgin until marriage?

[Lovelife090994]

Hi, this is a query of opinion for me to hear and entertain people's thoughts on this very familiar yet mixed subject, waiting until marriage for sex.
Do you feel it is okay to want to be a virgin until marriage?
Do you hold this idea as one of your own?
Do you disagree with waiting until marriage for sex?
What are your thoughts?

My thoughts: In some I do and don't care, I've always said I'd wait until I marry the right girl but lately I've been questioning if that'll happen or if it is a sound idea.
I am starting to not exactly like solely girls and I've always been one to keep an open mind despite my background and faith, and yes I realize there are more important thing to ponder than virginity.
So, your ideas? I think I'd rather keep my virginity for a while until I am ready and or until marriage if possible.

Marriage is nothing but business. My decision to be intimate with someone is based solely on love. That being said, as teenagers we don't really understand what love is yet. Many of us that is.

Obviously this isn't one of my morals because I broke it six years ago.

[kylem1229]

I'd say wait a while. Teenage hormones cause people to have sexual activity without even thinking. You don't want to regret something in the future, because you did something too early/without thinking first.

[britishboy]

I'm cool with either, I fully respect Islam and Christianity for not allowing it

[Jess]

It shouldn't matter. But if you aren't you shouldn't be punished just because a religion says so and if you want to wait, that's your choice.

[Saint of Sinners]

Well, I think it's fine either way, as long as the person is happy.

[Stronk Serb]

It doesn't really matter. As long as you know the risks and consequences.

I agree.

Do you feel it is okay to want to be a virgin until marriage? Yes
Do you hold this idea as one of your own? No
Do you disagree with waiting until marriage for sex? Mostly
What are your thoughts? If someone has the maturity to have sex before marriage then go ahead, some people don't even want to get married, as marriage is just a paper, and they do not deserve to be prohibited from sex for eternity.

[Jenni.]

It's better to be virgin till you find the right person to share your love.

[Emerald Dream]

That is up to each person individually - if they think they can handle sex and the emotional effects of it (both you and your partner's). No one should be telling anyone whether they can or can not. It's not their right.

Depends on what that person wants to do. You shouldn't feel the need to rush it, nor should you feel pressured to wait.

[LouBerry]

Like everyone else said, it depends on the people.
It is better? Eh, probably. I mean, if you wait until you're married, you don't have to deal with teen pregnancy and all that jazz, plus it never hurts to be more mature when you're sexually active.
But even those things don't apply to everyone. It just depends on the situation.

[Luminous]

It really depends. I don't have anything against anyone that waits or doesn't wait, as long as you're doing it safely and know the consequences, I don't see a problem. Honestly I don't see myself waiting, but who knows?

[Melodic]

Depends on the situation. I'd probably wait a few years and make sure me and his relationship was serious. I would also talk to him about it first just in case something happened like I got pregnant and what we would do.

[Danny_boi 16]

Yes, but if I can't wait then no big deal. If it happens it happens.

Thanks for all the input!

[Walter Powers]

I think that that should be avoided at all costs.

Remember, contraception isn't foolproof. And it's not best for a child to be raised by unmarried parents.

The bigger issue, of course, is age. Teenagers generally don''t raise kids well.

[Hypers]

Id say it's personal preference its not like its a bad thing.

[Reserved]

I'm going stay a virgin until marriage...but not by choice.

You have no say in that? May I ask why? It is your body after all.

It's a joke. I'm not good with women. Will never get laid :p

[Twilly F. Sniper]

Not really a bad thing... Unless it's at a really young age like 13, then don't.

[Lovelife090994]

Oh, well, chin-up I haven't had much success with girls either but success with a girl is not exactly sex.

[Miri]

I believe that it's best to stay a virgin until you've found the right person and are both safe and aware of the consequences.

[Desuetude]

I voted neutral because idgaf either way
