When you're ready to have sex you are ready to have sex.  If it's before marriage, cool.  If you're not ready until marriage, that's cool too.\nI think sexy before marriage is a good thing.  People speak of how it's more special when you save it.  But honestly if you wait until you're married you're going to suck at it.  Not being able to please your spouse on your honeymooon (a very special occasion) would be a shame.  On the other hand, if both partners are inexperieced they'll at least have a chance to grow and learn about sex together.\nHowever, I think it would be foolish to marry a person you've never slept with.  Sex is a very big part of relationships and if you marry a person without knowing  whether or not they can please you sexually you may find yourself in a very dissatisfied marriage.\nJust think about this:  Would you buy a new car without ever giving it a test drive?

It depends on how much later.\n\nThe couple should be married in the Church before enjoying conjugal bliss (having sex).\n\nWith love in Christ.

Problem is deeper. It's a Phylosofical problem (usually are not practic). Condom is not the problem, but behavior is.\n\nYou are not allowed to do sex before marriage. \nOnce married you are not allowed to have sex relations with other person. \nAnd MOST important of all: When you do sex, you do to have children and not to have pleasure. After 60's Pope told that having pleasure during the sex is not sin. ... since you are respecting all rules above. \n\nThese are main rules and as a Catholic, you cannot avoid it. If Catholic church allow to use condom, it means that they allow to do those wrong things too. \n\nIt's just a matter of Ethics and cause and consequence about rules. Religion cannot be flexible as moral is. Change this concept means change part of what has been teach during so long time .... and it has consequences.

lol I can't believe you would ask such a stupid question.\nChurch is against sex if it is outside of marriage, otherwise it is fine.\nYour not helping, because trying to get someone to try sex outside of marriage is stupid. \nThat person could get sexual diseases. That can't be fun.\n\nP.S. I tell you this tracdaddy5 that email was not nasty that email was just simply me standing firm on what I believe. \nSure I was getting mad and upset but it was not a nasty email.

you got it. Its a cultural thing. Its a sin to indulge in pre marital sex. for 18 or more years they are told its wrong to have sex before marriage. You cannot convince them over a few months to change such an instilled value. Unless they agree on their own. And don't you dare go on forcing yourself on them because its not your right to do so.

God made sex a sacred thing meant to be only for married couples, plus I hear that it's better when you're married. No pressure or worries about babies or anything else you might not be ready for...

I agree with that (with you that is).  Sex is the deepest kind of love that a man and a woman can experience together, and if you do it before marriage with one guy and you break up, who's to say you wont do it again with another guy.  That would take the love that sex with your life long partner is supposed to hold and ruin it.

I hate to look at things this way, but I'm a factual person. The stats show that ppl who live together before getting married are more likely to get divorced. I waited until I was married to have sex. This brings a real sense of security to our relationship. I could go on about the other benefits, but I'm tired.

are you asking if someone has had sex before getting married in general?  or are you asking if someone has had sex before marriage with the person s/he are married to?  or are you asking if someone has lost their virginity to the one person they are married to?  those are all very different questions and have very different answers with different meanings.\n\ni can say- yes, yes and no.  i am very happy i did not marry the guy i lost my virginity to.  i was too young and dumb.  i am glad that i have had some experience before i met my current husband.  do i wish i had waited until marriage to my husband to have sex, not necessarily.  but i do wish i had waited a lot longer.  \n\ni am happy that my husband and i lived together and loved together BEFORE marriage.  we were married a little over a year after we met.  we've been together several years now.  the marriage is AWESOME, our sex life is great (7+ times a week- no lie).  but we were not virgins when we met, but we did have sex out of wedlock and became married.  it all depends on your heart's intent, level of religiousness (interpretation) and commitment level.  it CAN and DOES work (against my strict protestant upbringing)!

I personally think that it's better to live with someone before you marry.  Many will disagree with my belief, but it is my own personal preference.  The reason that I believe that is because you never really know someone until you live with them.  You may discover things that you will not be able to tolerate for the rest of your life.

If you are religious, it is wrong to have sex before you are married.  It is a sin, it's called fornication.

AFTER you get married.  Life gets way too complicated if you do it before marriage.  It saves you from a lot of heart ache too.  You and your spouse will be glad you waited, then you won't have to worry about diseases, pre marital pregnancy, past lovers, etc.

I'm currently on my second marriage and I wish I would have waited until I met the man I'm with now. I was a virgin with my first husband but, we did it before we were married. I chose to have sex one month before our wedding because I didn't want our wedding night to be awkward. If your 100% positive you are getting hitched like I was then I say go for it. I just wish it had been with my second husband instead of my first.

I belive that love before marriage is essential to enable a life long loving marriage. Apologies if I wrong, but are you actually asking about sex before marriage?\n\nThis is a totally different question - and the answer must be, as far as I can see, that it is totally up to the two people that are in the relationship.\n\nYou are correct that nowadays many youngsters (and, of course, some 'oldies') have casual sex - this is their own choice and as long as they protect themselves from unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases who are we to judge?\n\nUltimately, we all have our own cultural and personal morals and standards to live up to and as long as we are comfortable with our individual choices and do not cause intentional pain or suffering to others we should do as we see fit. \n\nLove and sex do not have to be entwined, but in my experience the latter without the former is never as satifying to the body or soul.\n\nGood luck in the choices youu make..

Sex before marriage is not a good idea. I would rather have waited till I got married however, I was young and foolish and wanted experience. Well, after you're experienced what is there to experience more? You keep on having sex, right and so if I were to change this I would have waited for the right time. But this is just my opinion. Different people have different opinions.

That's why I riguorously oppose sex outside marriage. . .That is the only proof that people are with each other for something deeper. . . Please, try to have more self-respect. . .Sorry if that hurts. . .
