No, it is definitely not ok to have sex if you are not married.  It can lead to all kinds of problem, not to mention diseases.  Oral sex is too far to go before marriage.

sex should be with someone that you love and respect. and they should love and respect you.\nshould wait for marriage.\nthere could health problems when a women reaches 35yr. there are more health risks for the baby and the mom.\nI wish I waited to be married before having sex. I thought I was "missing out" on sex too. started seeing all my classmates around town and they were married and on their second kids.\nthought I was missing out, so I wanted to know what "it" was like too. but then got pregnant and the baby on my own. not fun after the fact.\nhaving sex is a HUGE RESPONSIBILITY AND YOU LEAVE YOURSELF VULNERABLE TO THE OTHER PERSON.\nso PLEASE WAIT FOR MARRIAGE AND IT WILL BE WELL WORTH THE WAIT BELIEVE ME PLEASE WAIT.\n\ndont be in such a rush to "fit in" or "know what it is like" just to know. take your time and know what kind of person has the qualitites you want in the other person and that you take of yourself financially and emotionally on your own.\n\ngood luck and WAIT FOR MARRIAGE: YOU WILL BE GLAD YOU DO.!!!!

I think if you're living with someone, it's perfectly acceptable to be having sex.  After all, you're in a healthy, committed relationship that's one step away from engagement/marriage.  The only thing missing is a certificate.\n\nWith that said, no I don't feel I need to refrain and... 67 days.

I see nothing wrong with knowing what you're getting into.  I know others would disagree, but sex is a part of marriage.  If it's not enjoyable because of who you're with, you won't want to be procreating with them (which is the whole biblical point of having sex in marriage).

That is a personal decision between only you and your loved one.  Considering that some people never do get married and remain single their entire life it would be impractical for those individuals to wait until marriage.  If they did they would remain virgins their entire life and that would be asking too much.  This is my suggestion--I believe people in their teens are not mature enough to deal with the emotional issues of having sex.  They should wait until their 20s and should also be in a very loving and trusting relationship when losing their virginity.  That’s what my husband and I did.  We have been married 19 years, are very in love, and wouldn’t change a thing.

you should wait until you are married if that is what you want. chances are if a guy has sex with you now he probably might only want sex. If a guy really loves you and repects you he will also wait until you are married.

having sex is not really a sin.it depends upon the person u have with.if suppose the person is suffering from std infections then it is really a risk.sex is a feeling that god has given to us.it is the one that allows the perpetuation of the species.\n                      marriage of what this world has learnt is that exchanging the ring,celeberations,and taking oaths.but marriage is the bond that is created between man and women both physically and mentally.so if u love the person and he is really a fine good person then go ahead.

That's up to you.  I think people should wait, especially if you're trying to make a serious relationship out of it (and for your health... STDs).  If you're just looking for sex though, I guess it doesn't matter when (be safe).

i've had sex before and yes it does feel good but i warn you, wait! it's not a good idea right now while you're not married, you'll be giving yourself away to someone you don't know is your going to be husband. I'm not very proud of what i do but sometimes you get stuck in a rut that you can't get out of. if you like it too much you'll get stuck and then you'll have a greater chance of getting STD's. Even though i don't know you i beg of you as a friend, don't do it yet! you will regret it so much after you do. You will be sore, and yes you will bleed because you're a virign and you're not used to having something up your vagina. Let me ask a question.. are you ready to be a parent? think on that. but wait! don't do it!

not under any circumstance - you will ruin the kids life if they are not brought up in a  proper family environment and sex before marriage is immoral and well having sex the first time on your wedding night makes it special for both - I would hold back till then

It's legal to date, but not to have sex.

It's up to you and your boyfriend/girlfriend.   I was married when I was 18 and now I am 20.  My husband and I decided not to have sex before we got married. I know that some people regret having sex before they are married becasue it causes problems in their future relationships. But this is what worked for us.  You would have to talk it over with your sigificant other to decide what will work for you.

NO. not at all. First of all, I would like to congratulate you two. You're a match made in heaven. Basically, the bible states that sex is a blessing given to married couples. If you're just living together and not having sex, that's absolutely perfect. It's the most exciting thing you can have once you get married. But if you guys are married but not having sex... then there really is a problem behind that. Try talking to your partner about that.

It's not a question of health, as much it is as...religion. If you believe in no pre-marital sex, don't do it. I personally think, that if YOU are waiting for the right man... after marriage would be best. And again, it's how you and your family members feel about this as well.

you should wait until you're married to have sex.  you were meant to have an intimate, emotioanl, and spiritual realtionship with people of the opposite sex.\n\nsex outside of marriage, is not only dangerous, by regretful.\n\nfor example:\nyou could wind up as a one night stand\nyou can get numerous STD's\nyou can become pregnant \nor contractind AID's \n\nplease consider waiting until marriage to have sex. \n\nthink about:\n\nif you marry as a virgin to a person who is also a virgin....having sex would be a blissful act. anything you would do to eachother would feel wonderful!\n\nplus, anytime you have sex with someone, you connect with them. even if it's just subconsciously. \n\nwhy do you think that sex complicates things o much?!\n\nrespect yourself, and your future...please wait until marriage to have sex!!
