Argumentative Essay On Sex Before Marriage

Sex before marriage is very often a touchy subject. However, I feel that sex before marriage is a very important subject that is not brought up and talked about enough. There are many different viewpoints brought to the table when talking about this particular subject. The standards of society are constantly changing. One sign of this change is that nowadays many young adults seem to be open to premarital sex. Although I have heard many good arguments from people both pro- and anti- sex before marriage, I have yet to change my stance on this matter. In my opinion, having sexual intercourse before getting married is absolutely a bad tendency in our society.

In today’s society women are not held to that same standard as men are when it comes

The typical morals that were set in the early times are not the same social norms we have in the 21st century.

I believe that sex before marriage is ok for couples in a committed relationship, who are of age and capable of making of responsible decisions. Also, I think that many people have a misunderstanding about sex. Sometimes religion can

The reason why I said I was mutual is because I am not a virgin myself but and I don’t regret losing my virginity because I still value myself and who I choose to give myself up. That doesn’t lower my chances of finding my fairytale husband because if God blesses with one anything I did before him wouldn’t matter because he would accept all my flaws the same way I would accept his. On the opposing side of the argument I do know that waiting until marriage is the right thing to do and it avoids a lot of consequences such as heart breaks, sexual transmitted diseases, and unexpected pregnancies. Therefore, I am very open minded to both sides of the argument and I respect each one of them and respect them both equally because I can relate to both sides of the arguments due to my personal beliefs and from a reflection on the decisions I chose to make in my teenage
