Its hard, very hard.

I dont know what country you live in but in the west sex is everywhere, on tv, adds, music its very rare to save yourself.
My sister at 21 got the pill, for her first time, and the doctor was so surprised.
Quote:Honesty is important in relationships, not past sexual activities.
Not always true.
Its ok to have doubt, just dont let that doubt become the answers.

In Islam, "no sex before marriage" simply means that one should not have sex with the opposite gender before getting married first. Why do some of you find it so hard to follow?
So you can have sex with someone of the same gender then?
Sounds fair.

So do you actually agree with the whole abstinence thing or no?

Since most people tend to take after the religions of their parents, I think abstinence on the part of theists is a extremely noble thing, to be promoted both before and after marriage.

By having sex before marriage. Or, having willpower.

Not a fair premise. I'm an atheist who is a hopeless romantic.
The ones who will have sex, regardless of religion and rationalization, will have it anyways.
They ones who won't, won't.

The second post in this thread nails it:

They then ask for forgiveness and easy peasy they get married with a clean soul. There are, of course, fringe lunatic methods of maintaining sexual purity...
In my old church there was a rumor that a group of men exchanged blow jobs with each other to maintain their sexual purity. I thought it was just some kind of joke until my friend told me that he was one of them!
Even stranger than that is the idea that one can have anal sex and still be considered a virgin!

Through anal sex, you can satisfy your body’s needs, while you avoid the risk of unwanted pregnancy and still keep yourself pure for marriage.
You may be shocked at first by this idea. Isn’t anal sex (sodomy) forbidden by the Bible? Isn’t anal sex dirty? What’s the difference between having anal sex before marriage and having regular intercourse? Let’s address these issues by debunking some myths about anal sex and God's will.
