Some people believe that it's important for a couple to keep their virginity until they marry the person that they are going to live with the rest of their lives. Other people believe that sex before marriage is almost mandatory before marriage because why would you want to spend the rest of your life with someone if you are not sexually compatible? Others may believe that it's strictly up to the people involved that it shouldn't be one case over the other.

What is your opinion on the matter?
 
I think it is up to the two together, iu mean it used to be taboo up until the late 50s, but now society has changed and moved away fro those beliefs
 
Growing up in a Christian home and to my faith it's always been said that sex should be after marriage. I broke that rule though back when I was in high school with my girlfriend. I can see why now though that sex is meant for after marriage as you get really emotionally attached to that person and it should be really special.
 
I was always taught about sex after marriage but tbh people of our time have sex regularly before marriage.
 
Just because my family and I place an emphasis on the needs of keeping one's virginity, I do still believe it is upto the individual without judgement.
Though, as a result of our religion, my wife and I both lost it together. :)
 
In my religion, it is strictly forbidden for a couple to have sex before marriage, it is completely unacceptable.
 
It depends on the relationship. I had sex before and after I was married, so I think it can go either way despite one's beliefs.
 
Hmm,
Thats a tough one if i'm honest.
I don't think sex is a make or break thing in a relationship, but I also believe that it helps create a sensual/emotion attachment to your partner.
I would like to think that if I was told to wait, I could have with my current partner because it wasn't all about having sex.
It was a much bigger picture then that, but things happen, especially when your younger.
So its getting harder and harder to keep that tradition alive.

So I appreciate the people who do wait, but I also understand why people don't wait. :)
 
Personally I think, It shouldn't matter when sex is happening. If people want to do it, Then let them do it. But if they want to wait then they can wait and aren't obligated to do it anytime before.
 
How sure can you be you will stay with that one person forever?
What my thoughts were, and still are, about this is that you should do it, explore the world and see what's the most fitting for you. In the end if you stick to one thing you might regret it in the end.
 
i think its even ridiculous that anyone would ever think that they have to be married befrore they have sex

who made that rule up and where does it say i have to be married first

its my life

i dont even want to get married, its a piece of paper and you are married in a church and im not even religous. nothing is different, you just call each other husband and wife
