Premarital Sex is long been an issue in our super judgmental society. It is an obvious serious problem of world's abnormality. Since we're living in what we call free country, people around the world especially the young ones, believe that sex is an ordinary pleasure, its secrecy and its excitement send shiver on young ones. Little by little the behavior of teenagers has been destructed and bent into different directions. I'm not telling you that i am pro adult premarital sex, but mostly teenagers are the most affected of this issue. Since their spiritual and emotions are not established yet. Usually their idea of premarital sex has been twisted maybe by media, like television or internet. At this age they are still in the process in finding their self and identity.
Come to think of it. They might think that it's okay to have premarital sex since they are doing it with their boyfriend, and they thought that part of it is love. This is common in a long term relationship. What usually happens is in a long run of a relationship, couple tends to get bored with each other and finds a way to a new adventure. Then boom! They end up doing that thing.Crazy as it may seem, lust gets in the way, without thinking what will happen next.
Now how will you define premarital sex? It is a physical union of a man and a woman before marriage. But how will you know if this is immoral? Does your conscience dictates you, that "no!" what you are doing is wrong, when it feels so right in the first place? In our society today there are a lot of religion, and according to the bible, sex outside marriage and sex with different partners are immoral.. This is when you have a religion, but what about those people without religious groups? Do they feel immoral if they are having premarital sex? These are the norms or the standard that we follow on a daily basis. What if there are no norms? No rules? How should we react on this? You see, the things that are written in the bible are rules that every one must obey, if you don't obey what will happen?
Abortion? AIDS? Broken Family? Unwanted babies?
It's up to you to decide how will you treat this kind of behavior, but whatever you choose, and whatever the outcome is, we must be responsible for all our acts. But if you don't know to be responsible think twice.

God is very much against with pre-marital sex, and yet for those people who are still finding an excuse about premarital sex, be wary with your health instead. Probably AIDS can help you decide not to engage with it. Having multiple partners most likely the reason why AIDS are now rampant. Any uses of sex except inside marriage is a sin.
ReplyDeletemapa pro or against premarital sex pag andun na cguro sa "on that moment" part, ewan.... depende na cguro sa taong kasama mo.. Sabi nga diba "walang mangyayari kung di mo susubukan, at pag wala ka ginawa wala ka din matutununan". But everyone has the right to choose. Batuhin nyo ko ng bato ngayon kung paguusapan lang natin ang tungkol sa KANYA, alam ng tao na kasalanan yan, pero may magagawa ba tayo kung yun ang gusto nila?
ReplyDeleteBecause the Filipino culture is Catholic any form of sex outside of marriage is thought of as sinful or wrong. On a psychological point, sex is part of a human's basic physiologic needs (according to Maslow).
ReplyDeleteI'm in between. I don't think sex is as important as food, water, sleep, etc. hehehe. But sex is not automatically "bad" just because a church says so. The Catholic Church is narrow-minded about many issues (sorry Joementot, my opinion). Pano na yung mga taong ayaw mag-asawa, o kaya di pwedeng magpakasal? Sex can be a part of committed relationships, it depends on the partners, especially if they are two mature adults.
Now having casual sex with multiple partners is a completely different issue. What you're putting at risk is your health, self-esteem, self-respect, and other people's respect for you. And teenagers, an even more complicated and touchy subject...I think they should wait, if only for self-preservation.
