depends ...
depends on if you're an idiot or not ... because ...
so much is involved in a sexual relationship.
For me the 2 main things are ... children and STD's ...
A USA study has seen an average of 2/3 of people under 30 will have some STD or another .. now while some are curable .. as in their symptoms are curable .. others like herpes .. can lie dormant before they show up again ...
Now personally, I really don't want any form of STD EVER! I look after myself so well so that I DON"T get sick, and I don't want some idiot giving me a virus or sickness ...
there was a doco on TV last night actually where the partner is unfaithfull to his woman partner and has another "nightlife" and give her the AIDS virus, but he didn't know he had it himself ... she was faithful to him, but went to the doctor sick, and the doctor told her then she told her partner.. anyway, that's how it happens in Africa as well ... multiple partners sprading the AIDS virus.
Now i'm not saying everyone who has sex before marrige will get aids .. no of course not ... you'll be smarter than that, and use protection. (undies!! :lol:)
Trust is also a huge part to play ...
THa'ts the first one, the second one is children. There's a huge committment if one makes a "mistake" .. and if both parties aren't ready rah rah .. hardly anyone actually discusses it .. unless it's a "serious" relationship ..
ok so that's STD"s and pregnancy ...
but at the beginning I say, depends on if you're an idiot ...
because of course otherwise you'll take precautions ... but
(a) no one likes to think that they are idiots
(b) no ever thinks it wll happen ot them.
So PERSONALLY, IN MY OPINION .. I say GENERALLY no ...
Again .. different circumstances like if someone'd been going out for ages blah blah ... I see no problem ... but again, I WOULDN"T ...
So it means maybe that I have less experience ... maybe it might be awkward ... but .. meh ...
Actually it depends on whether or not you believe in marrige!!! Marrige is a religious institution more than anything, and lots of people aren't a religion! So what's marrige to them? Nothing!
I am a religion, and it makes it easier for me to say no :-)
