Pre-marital sex...Yes or No?

<p>I see no reason to not do it</p>

<p>pskate, you're mixing up pre-marital sex with casual sex. There's a huge difference!</p>

<p>hmmm i don't knw if it helps in this discussion or not but my partner in english 101 wrote a research paper abt arrange marriages vs love marriages and in that research paper, he concluded that arrange marriage is more successful.It should be kept in mind that ppl who r into arrange marriage abstain from premarital sex.</p>

<p>PS: i did some googling and found out this link where in India,arrange marriage is predominant than anywhere else i guess

those of you who are against premarital sex are the ones who couldn't get laid in high school anyways. you look at the lack of sexual appeal that you give off, and use the premarital sex argument to justify it.

<p>PS: just learnt the new script,so mind it :D</p>

<p>^^ If you are going to measure it by the divorce rate, then obviously a place where the culture tends towards arranged marriage is going to have less of it, since the culture will probably be likewise disposed against divorces. Doesn't mean the marriage is successful... for all you know it's just two strangers sharing a house.</p>

<p>

But they are enough to tell you how your married sex life will turn out. And that, my friend, is rather important to the marriage.</p>

<p>Why not? If two people (or more) love each other, why not? Humans are sexual beings. It is rather unnatural to wait until you're married to have sex.</p>

<p>^ Especially because marriages today occur at roughly twice the age of natural sexual maturity.</p>

<p>^ not exactly true......</p>

<p>That's why I said "roughly"! :)</p>

<p>Age</a> at first marriage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia says:</p>

<p>United States: 27.1 for men, 25.3 for women, 26.1 final average</p>

In countries like India where arranged marriage is common, divorce is also frowned upon. My grandparents are from Pakistan, and had an arranged marriage and they absolutely despise each. They don't even live together any more, as neither can stand the sight of the other and barely speak at family gatherings. However, they still refuse to divorce because in their culture, divorce is just as bad as pre-marital sex, and God <em>frowns</em> upon divorce. They would never ever EVER consider it. One of my cousins was divorced, and we never talk about it in the family, it's that taboo...crazy, I know. So saying arranged marriages are less likely to end in divorce doesn't mean much.</p>

Is it? If two people enjoy spending time together and their company and they love each other dearly, should they really break up over lousy sex?</p>

<p>I'd like to try it out before I buy it ;) </p>

<p>Also, I am in no way saying casual sex it OKAY and acceptable in my mind. I think pre marital sex is "necessary" in a way but it should only happen if you truly love the person, not just for kicks.</p>

<p>against it.
going through life and throwing it away.
sigh.</p>

<p>Yes, because:
1. gay marriage isn't legal everywhere
2. if you decide to wait and then change your mind when you're a 23yo virgin, people are going to think you'e weird and are less likely to have sex with you.
3. think of all the sex you'll be giving up
4. for some, sex is an important part of marriage; it's necessary for a good marriage but doesn't necessarily lead to a good marriage. It's like checking to make sure the car has a windshield before buying it, but just because the car has a windshield doesn't mean you should necessarily buy it. (I think that's a better analogy than the test-drive)</p>

<p>note: there is a difference between casual sex and serious-relationship sex</p>

2 people who enjoy spending time together and love each other can be friends or family. Physical, sexual attraction is what turns it into a romantic relationship. If you enjoy spending time with someone but hate having sex with them and have no sex life as a result, then sounds like you two are meant to be friends, not married. </p>

<p>Maybe you have no sexual desire, but most people do. If you're married and hate the sex, you're gonna look for it somewhere else. Divorce is better than cheating. Luckily, people who have pre-marital sex can avoid this little issue by sampling the goods before buying the package.</p>

<p>I find it hard to believe that anybody would think to themselves, 'I wonder if this person is going to be the person I marry' before every pre-marital sex. </p>

<p>You sample the goods and take it home, only to find that the package has a defect. What if the package wears down sooner than expected...?</p>

<p>lol I predict that the analogy is going to really break down soon... As for if the package wears down too soon, do you mean the person is dying or just that their libido is waning or that their physical body/parts is/are somehow literally degrading? If it's the first then...you get really sad and try to do something to reverse the process. If it's the second, then you learn to deal with it or change your lifestyle. If it's the last one, then you hope that it's not a flesh-eating virus that's easily communicable.</p>

<p>Now, the real question is: what do you do when you find out the goods are actually in another package because the packaging plant made a mistake and put the goods in the wrong package, or because the salesperson was an idiot and forgot to put the goods in the box before giftwrapping it for you? Can you get some goods put into the package after you cut it open?</p>

<p>What if the package has too much tape on it?</p>

<p>LMAO..... i wonder what this "goods" will literally translate into...</p>
