Many people I talk too can't stop laughing when I tell them I don't plan on having sex until I get married. They say I'm just being ridiculous and then criticize me saying "I should grow up". I don't get it, if Sex is all it's cracked up to be, why wouldn't I want to do it with the person I love? Why would I want to participate in something so great so casually with people I might not care about? I have nothing against people who do have sex casually. I don't see shame in people wanting to feel needed even if it's only physical. I'm not here to judge (I gave a different thread for that), But why is my view apparently so obtuse that it's bad?
Maybe it's because I didn't grow up around the topic casually. I'm not really a fan of talking about it casually, and it's only easy for me to do it here cause there's a level of anonymity on the internet.

Edited by Swiftkillswitch3: 10/25/2013 6:54:38 PMMy friend, 19 and no longer a virgin, says there's no more joy or pride in sex before or after marriage. I can see his point, as it can be a let down at times, but it's all a personal choice. I just stopped giving a damn, as my sex life isn't advancing anywhere because I refuse to let it. I only care about maybe half a dozen things currently, and sex is nowhere near the top 100. People will bash you regardless if what you do/say/choose/live by, so stop giving a -blam!- about what they say. I've stopped completely, as my goals and desires are my own without outward [non-musical] influences. [i]Society is hypocritical, and always will be.[/i]
