Is premarital sex acceptable?


My friend is considering it, and I'm not sure what to tell her.

Answers:
It's a dumb idea.
You risk pregnancy and STDs.
But also you're giving up one of the greatest gifts you have.

Think of how you want your wedding night to be: Experiencing a new level of intimacy and love with someone you love and will spend the rest of your life with, someone you trust.

Compare that to:
Sneaking off away from parents to give yourself away to someone who (despite what you think) you really don't know and hasn't thought enough of you to commit his life to you. You usually feel embarassed , awkward and disappointed.

Which would you choose?

If your Christian: Simple, it's a sin. One that you can be forgiven for, but why go there?
I pray she doesn't. God Bless.

Other Answers:
Depends on the culture I suppose. It is mostly a non-issue for us and Europeans.
I don't think so! Wait unil you are married! It makes the wedding night that more special! And also if you wait until marriage you don't even have to worry about getting pregnant!
No! As long as you hold out,(and you should, for very good reasons) you will have some control. If you do decide to have sex, the guy may go bye bye in no time, because this is how they are. ALWAYS USE PROTECTION. Protect your reputation. Be safe!

::sighs:: as long as there is mutual respect and affection and precautions have been taken against STDs and Pregnancy. As long as both parties feel ready, there is nothing wrong with sex. ever. It's natural and a piece of paper from your state doesn't make sex any better or worse. that's my opinion, anyway.
tell her what YOU HONESTLY THINK. if she's asking you, it's cause she values your opinion. your opinion, not those of us here on yahoo.
Acceptable? It should be encouraged and with as many partners as possbible!
It all depends on what laws you are following because in the laws of the world they seem to have no problem obviously because there are alot of people that are having sex and never been married or even close to getting married, But if you are going by the laws of god it is definently not acceptable. I suggest you follow the laws of god he will send you your husband and you can have all the sex you want with your husband. wait it is worth it and if you already have done it then ask for gods forgiveness and don't do it again.
Sincerely, If you have to ask, you already know the answer. Sometimes doing the right thing isnt always our first choice. I tell you now, DON'T Do it. On a lighter note, (Male perspective) who wants to buy a cow when you can get the milk for free?)
Not to me it isn't. Tell her to maintain self-control. This isn't the right time. When she's ready to have children--and she is married--then she can consider it.
NNNOOO!!!!!!! I have never met somebody who did it and wasn't sorry. WAIT!
There are many ways to look at this topic.

Most religions consider premarital sex a sin. If you are spiritual and concnered about such things, then it is best for you to wait until marriage.

Many cultures also consider it inappropriate. Here in America, partly because of the predominate Christian population, it is frowned upon, especially for younger women.

Sex is a huge responsibility. You can only be a virgin once. For some, loosing thier virginity is not a huge deal, for others, it can be a major event in their life. Keep in mind, teenage love is often infatuation. It exists to teach you how to get it right for real life. It is hard to manage all the stressed of school. home life, individuality, peer pressure and hormones. For most teens, sex at this age is a bad idea. Not for religious reasons, but for the simple fact they are not equipped to deal with it. They have a limited support system.

All too often, everything SAYS they have sex, but do not. Then when it is confirmed that someone did, it spreads through the school like wildfire. The guy may be labeled Stud, and the girl whore or ****. It is not fair, but it happens. Your best friends may become jealous, envious and share your secret rather than support you. Or it may all work out well. Your parents will have mixed feelings. They want the best for their kids but sex means their child is growing up.

You also have to be concerned with pregnancy and STD.Sexually Transmitted Disease is a real risk to teens. Syphyllis, HIV/Aids, Hep B. and more are real risks. You CANNOT often tell by looking at someone if they are sick. Remember, Herpes, hep B and HIV are for LIFE and are often fatal. Not using a condom is stupid and not worth the risk.

If the guy really does care, he will volunteer to use it. Never accept anything less.

Pregnancy is a big risk. Improper use of birthcontrol can lead to pregnancy,. Yes you can get pregnant even if he pulls out, does not finish, you have your period, or the condom breaks. At this stage, you want to focus on living YOUR life and learning who you are and what you will do next (college, job, etc.) you do not need the stress of a baby and filling its needs first.

It is a big responsibility. You need to be tehre for your friend and offer support and make sure they realize it is OK to say NO. It is OK to be afraid. It is Ok to say yes, if that is what they truly think is best. But it should be unpressured and protected.
If you can wait until marriage, that really is the best. But at the very least, you should be in a loving and committed relationship. Don't just throw it away to Mr. Right Now. Wait for Mr. Right!
No, wait until marriage
Go for it, its great. I have to say one thing tho... Sex can change your outlook of your partner so what if u dont feel the same way about them after you have sex.... your not gonna wanna be unhappy in marrage because of it. Experiment a little, use condoms and birth control and find a person who will respect you, otherwise go for it.
