Do you believe in sex outside marriage?

Yes.  I believe in freedom.\nAt the same time, both my wife and I, who were both sexually active and neither religious, have cried about the fact that we didn't wait for each other.  So much that is special about sex was lost in those early years to people I would never have chosen to share it with now that I am wiser.  It wasn't worth the pleasure for what I lost.\n\nI suppose that's what our parents were trying to tell us, and religions are trying to teach us.  I still disagree.\n\nBut I understand.

Conservatives, believe that sex outside of marriage is a sin, even thinking about sex outside of a marriage is considered a sin. Most modern religions are OK with enjoying sex, as long as it's in a marriage. Some more traditional religions sill believe that sex is only for procreation. But most of them even say you can enjoy it. \n\nSome old fashion people were taught that sex is something to be ashamed of.\n\nBut i think the biggest thing with porn is that it's a sin or it represents sins being acted on. Even religions that have nothing against masturbation, still believe that sex is something that should only be practiced with your spouse or by yourself, behind closed doors. Not with any items that represent sinful sex.

No its not!!! Because the bottom line that once you marry the sex life becomes less and less. It may not be right away that this happens but its true it does happen. When you are thinking of marriage you should make sure that this person is the one who you want to spend the rest of your life with. Marriage is about uniting as ONE!Its my opinion that communication would be the most important thing in a marriage up under have Jesus at the roots of the marriage! Sex does play a role in a marriage because  two people who are married feel the most connected when they are making love as the should but its not the most important thing. Marriage includes making decisions together, compassion, understanding, just letting the other one know that you are there for them no matter what, friendship.  So have fun with your SEX but remember marriage is more that just SEX if you marry for this reason then you are going to end up unhappy and wanting out! Truth of the matter, things change so will the sex life.Good Luck to you!

Sex anytime outside of marriage is a sin.

The only way a man can legally have sex (by Biblical standards) is to do it in the institution of marriage. All other sexual encounters outside of marriage is sin. Promiscuous sex is not condoned by God. We have many in this country that are living together, having sex, families, etc. without being married. The Bible clearly defines this activity as an abomination. Sorry, I didn't write the rulebook, but you asked. I am 60 years old, and I have been married to the same woman for 35 years, and have never had sex with anyone else. God's rules work if you let them. I am proud of marriage, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Thank you for asking - it allowed me to respond!!

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...

If you are a Christian you won't have sex until you're married at which time it won't matter. It's basically up to the couple then if they want a baby or not. Nice try though but as I said a Christian would not have sex outside of marriage.

That depends on the situation. My wife and I felt that we were married in spirit before we were married on paper. Our daughter was born 4 months after we were married on paper, but we feel that she was conceived in the loving bond of spiritual marriage. If other people do not agree, that is their problem.\n\nI am not justifying a promiscuous lifestyle. A spiritual bond is more important than a legal bond, in my opinion, and in the situation that you are spiritually bound to another, I do not see the problem with it. Other's may not agree, however.

That was not God's purpose when He created Adam & Eve. But After sin people started to do so till our days. When in Marriage sex is a lovely languagee expressing communion & unity. But outside marriage is nothing but desires & lusts. God bless you & keep you safe.

I do because there are more chances that a relationship will last a lot longer for sex to come after marriage than for marriage to come after sex. To build a relationship you have to know what the foundation is made out of. Some choose sex to be the foundation of a relationship and some choose love as their foundation. Sex and love are two separate things and should NEVER be looked upon as an equal. Some people are too stubborn to realize that sex is suppose to be something done out of love; (if any is envolved) not the other way around. Chances are very good that if a person views sex as a foundation to a relationship, he/she wasn't looking for one in the first place. People often forget what marriage is these days. In most traditional marriages there's a line that says "for better or for worse"; if someone is gonna treat the other like some kind of merchandise such as a car or whatever and they have this mentality that they have to "try" someone out before marriage, they don't have any business getting married. Basically if this happens what that person is saying is that they don't love you, they're just gonna use you as temporary usage and if he/she doesn't like what's been provided, that person is gonna be stashed away. That is what's gonna happen when sex becomes before marriage.

Yes even if you are Catholic. The church does not recognize a marriage outside of it's own church. Now if you got married in another catholic church you have to get an annulment and man that's tuff to do.

My husband and I both think it is.  We feel that if you are seeking ANY form of intimacy outside of the relationship, things need to be evaluated...even if it is something as impersonal as the internet.

that is probably true-sex before marriage is wrong there.

I did have sex before marriage and not to sound sappy, but if I would have known that I would meet my husband someday, I would have waited. Youth can be so blinding... I never thought I would meet a great guy someday and want to give that to him.

No, if a Muslim decides he/she never wants to get married they r not allowed to have sex outside marriage.. It is considered a sin. Also Christians in the Eastern cultures u r talking about do not have premarital sex, they consider it a sin. There r Muslims and Christians who do not commit to that but they know it is a sin anyway.
