The only people that have a problem with premarital sex are the Christians. However, in terms of humanist morals (which I generally agree with, being that I'm agnostic), there's nothing wrong with premarital sex, as long as both partners are consenting. Furthermore, it's not really any of my business whether two people are having sex before they marry. As long as they know what they're doing and have the responsibility to deal with the consequences after wards, there's nothing wrong with it. As for myself, let's just say that I refuse to have sex. It's too overrated.

Why not.
Before anything regarding God ever came to be, people still ****ed and made kids without any kind of engagement. Granted, there were other religions with similar treatements, but still.

Besides, you're supposed to experience this stuff when you're young. That's how you decide what kind of person is for you, and weather you even want a mate or not.

And besides, screw God, if I ever get married, it's a promise of love for whoever I fall in love with, not a promise to God.

I'm not sure these days how much impact religion has on most people, so maybe the other reason why people frown on sex before marriage is because we're all irresponsible, get diseases or have kids while not ''meaning'' to. Then again, I don't see how such a sham as marriage automatically makes you responsible.
And as far as I'm concerned, sex and love are two different things. I don't know who stated that having sex is a personal thing that you share with the person you love, but the fact that most people cheat on their mates, seek out prostitutes and so on, proves to me that sex itself is like some kind on basic function based on instinct to keep the human race alive.

Maybe I just have no morals or don't know what love feels like whatsoever, but I'm convinced sex before marriage is no freakin' big deal.

But people who think otherwise and think they'd like to save themselves for that special someone, weather for love or religion or both, is also fine with me. They do what they will, if that makes them happy, and I'll do what I want if it makes me happy.
In the end, that's all people care about anyways.

It's interesting to note that the same people who believe sex is meaningless without marriage come from the same group of Christians that have the highest rate of divorce out of any other religious group in America. If sex is meaningful because of marriage, then what happens to it when people divorce? Is it not the same as premarital sex because the sex that you had no longer has any meaning?

in the words of that song I heard...

"Don't worry, Be horny"
do you what you think is right.. if you think you should go nooky with the one you love.. do it !!!!!
or if you want to wait until your married, then thats Kool too.
I'm not going to say which is right or wrong, because YOU are the one that has to live with the consequences that will follow.

I know that may sound harsh, but thats what life is. a Learning Experience, but I think for some is a religious thing.. and even though most don't follow religion these days.. you still have to take that into mind as well I guess.

If they want to convince themselves of that, then so be it. But it's like a waste of your life, physically and mentally. People should savour the experiences they had. Love, sex, whatever.
And maybe some do, since at one point (Regarding your post.) they USED to love that person.

Not every Christian might see it as a waste, not every Christian might seek to nullify that part of their life out of their minds. But like you said, I'm sure a lot of them do.

If you loved someone, you shouldn't be ashamed of having sex with them, even if you stop loving them afterwards and divorce. Marriage has little meaning if you can have it as easily as you can divorce. So sex before marriage, sex after marriage, sex after or before divorce? Who cares?

As long as everyone involved is legal and consenting, I couldn't care less whether sex takes place (or doesn't take place) within marriage, before marriage, outside of marriage, or after marriage. It's none of my business.

As I said in the previous topic we had on the matter (check the archives), as long as it’s consensual and everyone involved is prepared to deal with the consequences, I see absolutely nothing wrong with it.
