If by "people" you mean "insecure teenage girls", then yes. And Stringer, if I recall correctly. For whatever reason... possibly to do a citizen's arrest or something like that.

Why? Because committing to one another by waiting to have sex takes a deep, emotional connection. It takes both partners agreeing to put their selfish, short term pleasure aside so that they can commit to waiting together. That takes a very strong relationship. Is it not possible to commit to each other without marriage? I will use my parents as an example. They had two children and were together for 9 years before they were officially married. EDIT: Oh yeah, I forgot, you used to live with your girlfriend, didn't you Army? What's with the change of tune? I do live with my girlfriend...

I don't like sluts, and lust is wrong. I think you should only have sex if you're going to commit. But marriage these days is just signing a bit of paper IMO. Sex should be special but marriage is not a real measure of anything unless you're religious - I say as long as you're committed, why not? :)

willcreene wrote:I don't like sluts, and lust is wrong. Being sexually attracted to someone, and having that person attracted to you, and, well, getting down to business, is a responsible way of going about a very basic human need. I don't see what's so wrong about it (as long as it's safe and mutual). Too many people seem to feel that it's morally reprehensible to say that sex can function as a normal part of your life. It's not that you're either an STD-infested slut or a sexless saint. As Stephen Fry put it (I'm paraphrasing), "The only people obsessed with food are the anorexic and the obese. Replace food with sex, the obese with the sex-obsessed, the anorexic with the sexless saints, and the point remains: moderation is key." willcreene wrote:marriage is not a real measure of anything unless you're religious
Yes, because atheists and agnostics get married willy-nilly and don't see marriage as anything more than just being a signature on a piece of paper.

Lust is perfectly natural; there's just a stigma that it's immoral. Emotions aren't always as abhorrent as they're made out to be. Thinking you can (and should) repeatedly suppress them is pretentious and naive. They're as integral to life as reason.

I think it's time to drag the thread back on topic ....... I lost it when I was 18, meh. I was dating my boyfriend for a while, we were both ready, and ... mhm. It's not like it's a sinful sinister sin of evilness casted by Lucifer himself upon all damned people on earth. It's also not the most proud thing you can do as a teenager. But in my opinion, as long as you are ready, prepared, and confident then go with it. Don't let other people judge you and don't judge others - trust me, I know. I grew up in a very conservative (small 'c') Chinese family ...... yup. **Shields** Accepted: University of Toronto: Social Sciences + Vic One (Pearson Stream) Carleton University: Honours Science University of British Columbia: Arts
