Why is "No Sex before marriage" bad?
Many people I talk too can't stop laughing when I tell them I don't plan on having sex until I get married. They say I'm just being ridiculous and then criticize me saying "I should grow up". I don't get it, if Sex is all it's cracked up to be, why wouldn't I want to do it with the person I love? Why would I want to participate in something so great so casually with people I might not care about? I have nothing against people who do have sex casually. I don't see shame in people wanting to feel needed even if it's only physical. I'm not here to judge (I gave a different thread for that), But why is my view apparently so obtuse that it's bad?
Maybe it's because I didn't grow up around the topic casually. I'm not really a fan of talking about it casually, and it's only easy for me to do it here cause there's a level of anonymity on the internet.
EDIT 9/20/13: The views expressed in this OP, are no longer up to date and have changed.

3 RepliesHere's the discussion I had with my boyfriend about this back when we weren't sure if it was okay or not... (he's a Christian, both our parents are Christan, and I was struggling by being unsure if it'd be moral or not) The whole saving sex for marriage is a traditional thing that goes back a few thousand years back. That being said, people back then got married at a MUCH younger age (i.e. usually before you were done with puberty). From about the age 17-early 20s, we are in our sexual primes. Why? You're at the beginning of adulthood, so you're just at the peak of maturity. It's when we'll perform the best and it's when it feels the best, because of your adult youth. In today's society, most people don't marry until their late 20s or 30s. At the end of your 20s you are no longer at your prime. And that's why most people today have sex before marriage.
