Sex Before Marriage

Many people today believe that having sexual intercourse before marriage is a common and normal thing. Others think that it is better to wait until you are married and find the right person to do it with at the right time. Personally I believe that it is better to wait until marriage for alot of reasons. It may seem hard to hold back on all the temptations but it is 100% worth it. I know that I have made some bad decisions in my life but if I could go back and fix my mistakes I would and I would keep it like that until the day I say "I do".
One of the main reasons that people should wait to have sex after marriage is because of the all the STD's that are out there and can be transmitted with just one time that you do it. AIDS, gonorrhea, are among the most common STD's that can be caught and the worst thing is that there is no cure for these types of diseases. Although many say that using condoms is the solution, they are never 100% secure and safe. The only way for sure is abstinence. Another reason that people shouldn't is because of teen pregnancy. For the past ten years or so the percentage of teen pregnancy has more than double meaning that teens are not being carefull of their decisions. Having a baby is a beautiful thing but no teen is ready yet to carry on the day to day responsibilities of having a baby. Thats why its better to wait until marriage so people can have as many kids as they want and will be able to raise them properly. The last reason is because of your own dignity. People lose respect and their own dignity when they are seen going around sleeping with any guy or girl they meet. Its better to wait so that others can look up to you and keep your dignity clean.
These are just some of the reasons why people should wait to have sexual intercourse until after marriage. Teen girls feel presured by their boyfriends and threaten them by saying if they dont get any then they will leave them. Others trick them by saying its love and feelings. There are other ways you can show someone you love them and if someone only wants you only just to do it than leave them because if you do than you are only getting used. Abstinance is the key and the wait is worth it.
