I'm sure saying 'sex' is fine. It's not like it's a terrible thing, and I find the idea of sex being a terrible thing to be bizarre.
I'm glad our culture is getting over this idea, and getting over rigid ideas about marriage as well. I guess thread titles like this show that we've got some way to go, but oh well.

Lmfao i was a bit confused looking at the title at first; "wtf is exsay" >>
Anyway, it doesn't really matter to me, since i've already done it before marriage, but i would have to say that for most people who say they wont have sex until marriage, they're most likely going to end up doing it if they get a really good chance. It's like trying to quit smoking because your wife or gf told you to, and you end up alone with no one around and a cigarette, odds are you're most likely to smoke it. It's like the whole forbidden fruit thing, the more you deny it the stronger the urge becomes. It isn't a fact, just personal opinion; there are people who have enough will to wait til marriage.
By the way, why is this in "Manga General"? lol >>

Depends on the value you used as a guidance in your life, nothing right or wrong just need to look from a different perspective. Personally i dont really care, if you wait or not, my only concern is if it's being done because of pressure and not because they really want to. As in pressure = is like the some people says that you are a dork if when you reach 18 and you are still a virgin, i know this happens alot in America and Europe, and now also in Asia.
I think it's really up to each person, as long as it is what they want.
Need a loving and lovely tsundere wife, anyone interested? >.<
On second thought yandere would also be fine.... O.O

I think that there's a lot to be said in favor of waiting until marriage. It's a little difficult to decide how to rank the arguments, but I think I'll begin with that of children.
Children are a major commitment, and considering how many are born without the benefit of two reliable parents, I think it is wise to require the prior commitment of marriage. If you're married it suggests at least that you've thought about this, rather than having children like puppies: "Oh, they were an accident, and now we have to give them a home--" not, "Well, we thought about it, and we decided we really wanted to experience the joy of raising children of our own." Yes, divorce happens, but divorce is a failure of the system, an error message--the reboot button to restart the program, so the couple isn't trapped forever in a malfunction.
Another issue is simple emotional attachments. Relationships are complicated. Sex is complicated. Sex within a relationship that lacks the stability of marriage is, it seems to me, going to make things that much messier when there's a breakup.
It could even be argued that monogamy reduces the spread of STD's, but since I think most of those are under control these days (syphilis has a cure, right?) I'll leave that one alone.
And yes, none of these are entirely reliable. Couples divorce, and children are left to shuttle between the halves of their broken families. One partner cheats on the other, creating the huge mess of betrayal. The cheater could catch herpes and pass it to the faithful partner before the betrayal is discovered. Nothing works perfectly, but these are all system failures. Do you build a house expecting it to burn down? No. It's possible, but awareness of the possibility stops no one from living in a house. (Er....I don't know of anyone, at least.....) Awareness of the possibility of divorce should not be a bar to marriage.
Regarding the thread title: it's not an obscenity. Why censor it? I think it'll just encourage the kids to think it's the Grownups' Big Secret, and the bigger the mystery the more curious they'll be.
ETA: Ack, it's an essay.....TL;DR? I believe in sex with one person, the right person, after marrying that person. 😉
They say it's the thought that counts, but then they tell you, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions......"

It depends. Personally, I'm not trying to make myself wait until after marriage, but if it ends up like that, then so be it.
I just know I'm playing it smart. At the moment, I'm not ready for constantly worrying whether I screwed up and a little swimmy managed to get in. I don't want to constantly have to buy BC. And furthermore, I am in no position for any mistakes(no offense to any teenage parents).
I just started college. I am unemployed. I love the innocence in my current relationship. I have no reason to want to take it to the next level yet.
But hey, sex is amazing. It's not a bad thing. You just shouldn't be an idiot about it, so know your limits.
