    I was raised Catholic and I grew up being told the basic rules to my religion, which I understood at a young age I was to follow. If I didn't, I needed to confess... One of these rules was, of course, not to have sex until my wedding night. When I was young, sure, I had no problem with that. As I got older and hit puberty, I was told even "those thoughts" weren't appropriate and it didn't make sense to me. Everyone thinks about sex, it's natural or else we would be extinct. So is asked a lot of questions and a friend's mom told me once to "try it before you buy it". That couldn't be more true. Sometimes people are just not compatible.

    Sooooo that said lol...in my eyes, the pros outweigh the cons. Really, the only negative I see is that you may need to test for STD to be comfortable and sometimes if your partner has been around the block it's in the back of your mind. But, if you trust them and love them, their is not a worry anymore.

    I'm not a judging person and all I've ever felt from religion was judgement. They tell you to forgive, but that sinners don't have a place in their heaven. We're all sinners. I think there might be a higher power, but I don't think God being all forgiving could damn lovers to hell for showing each other how much they feel. Or for someone giving into the most natural act in the world. I just can't get past the whole man made feel of religion.

    I don't really have much to say for positives. The negatives are a lot of worse case scenarios that might not happen, but could, like getting a STD, or misjudging the motives of the person you're having sex with which causes you to be in an awkward relationship, or accidently creating another person who goes through life without the advantages of being intended and planned for in the first place. The idea of not having sex before marriage especially made sense before birth control became common which was fairly recently in the overall scheme of things. As far as a potential good/bad result, it makes sense not to just because the possible bad outweighs the good by a lot which is basically how religions' viewpoint of sex formed to begin with. It stopped making sense when parents got lazy and said 'don't have sex just because' instead of taking the time to explain why it makes sense.

    I'm Atheist.

    I think having too much sex with lots of different girls and enjoying and partying all the time will screw your life up for good in the sense that you can later never have a stable relationship with 1 person for the rest of your life because you keep wanting more than that.

    It's like a drug - once you have "tasted" the lifestyle, everything else just ain't enough anymore. I think even porn can ruin you because if you do end up with a girlfriend, chances are she will no longer meet your expectations which is like a bar that keeps going higher and higher the more girls (pics or real life) you have seen naked.

    God says sex is NOT to be have until marriage premarital sex you risk all sorts of diseases cuz God does not protect but in marriage He protects and blesses it and so marriage God says you can have it 24/7 if you want it doesn't matter according to God as far as premarital sex goes there's nothing positive about it the positives of sex is in marriage!

    Source(s): The Bible says so!!

    Ask yourself this. Would you want to marry somone who is a virgin or somone who has had numerous sexual partners,several STD's possible pregnancies and perhaps a host of other problems. This is why sex is a gift from God for those in the Sacrament of Marriage. If both people go into marriage as virgins one does not have to worry about std's or pregnancies or what have you. Remain chaste and wait until marriage, you will be glad you did.

    no longer all Christians have self assurance interior the Bible via fact the notice of God, i replaced into reported Catholic, we never observed a Bible. The notice, the aum, the amen, the om...the vibration of the Holy Spirit. a real Christian follows the precepts of loving God and our neighbor, and brothers and sisters, if somebody asks you to stroll with them a mile, walk with them 2, Christ wasn't around for the OT, or perhaps what's written in purple, the words of Christ, have been written from memory, going interior the process the filters of the human beings who wrote them. the truthfully tale is obtainable, lots extra precise interior the Urantia e book. i could never do something i understand, and God did no longer leave us with out an inner compass...is incorrect, merely via fact some e book says so, we are only as worth to be stimulated by utilising God as our ancestors, and no the e book is often old, as you will discover this is not serving us, as to the place we would choose to bypass, we would like our thousand years of peace, and nevertheless attempting to take a street of conflict to get there.

    The positives & negatives of pre-marital sex are pretty much the same as the positives & negatives of post-marital sex. The only real difference is frequency. Married men know what I mean.

    Christianity produces sexual misery

    Christianity has a morbid, unhealthy preoccupation with sex

    Fundie is “sexually obsessed and degenerate; he would see a knot in a piece of rope as obscene.

    Its mind is saturated with GUILT and FEAR.

    It is programmed to believe it is a sick, evil, depraved, wicked person born of and in sin and forever a sinner; it even refers to any sex as fornication.

    What hope has it for any type of normality after such negative programming?

    It's a wonder more are not crippled by insanity.”

    Fundie is fully “programmed with superstition, FEAR, passivity, anti-intellectualism, obedience to fake authority, and rewarded for mediocrity and servile conformity…”

    Theists, especially Christians, try to control and restrict us based on their views.

    If all Christians stop crusading against science, education, culture, art, sex and sexuality, religious freedom and such, stop dishonestly misrepresenting your beliefs as facts, and stop telling everybody else they're going to be tortured throughout eternity unless they join you, I assure you that you won't encounter nearly as much hostility.”

    Some people don't ever want to be married, there's no reason why they shouldn't be allowed to have sex.

    Also, regardless of whether some people think this isn't true, the fact is that sometimes you are not going to be sexually compatible with your partner.
