If a man sets out to persue a woman just for sex, then dump her...I'd call that a sin and then some. But if two people feel a bond and stick with each other through thick and thin, and feel they both have come together as one...I see no reason why they cannot be intimate with each other. Matter of fact...I'm pretty sure it put's a smile on Gods face to see two people love each other and not just use each other for physical pleasure.
Well spoken Rance and very true.

By your own admission, in your other post, you have said you are not married or even come close.
I assume by that you mean you have never been deeply in love with anyone.
How do you know what you would do? Making love with a person who you deeply love is one of God's greatest gifts.
Anyone can read the Bible and make their own decision as to what it means. It is not so cut and dry as you make it out to be, what you are saying is only your opinion. That is all, your opinion, it does not make you 100% right.
Gees, you sould like my Mother.
I'm not saying I think it's right but there would be a lot less divorces if couples would live together for a few years before getting married.

I am tall about 5'10 slendor and toned and I'm not trying to be stuck up but I'm trying to paint you a full picture...I have long blonde hair and hazel eyes I'm attractive. I am very independent and successful. I am a Christian I go to church every sunday and attend various bible studies during the week. I love to go to the beach and I love to play sports and watch sports. I also enjoy surfing and well I guess just about anything outside. So anyways everytime I meet guys they always lie and cheat on me and I don't understand why. I am very kind and generous and take pride in being kind to the people that are around me. I was with a guy for about two years and I loved him very much and I thought that he loved me but he cheated on me a few times. He cheated on me with really nasty women and when I found out and asked him why he couldnt give me a reason. So pretty much every guy that I have ever dated has done me wrong. Is it because I won't sleep with men??? What am I doing wrong? Please help
Almost all men do, the problem well alot of them have dated a good woman till she dumped him for some guy that treated her like crap.

Then some are to intimidated to talk to women, hell I wouldn't walk up to one and start a conversation for nothing but then my wife now tells me I am married to my car and not her hahahahahahaha!!

To be totally honest her friend pushed her on me and that was how we started talking otherwise I would have never said a word to her!!

Good luck with that.

But consider: Women lose "marriage value" as they age. Men want young women who can bear healthy children. So any female's time as Queen Of The Hill is, biologically speaking, short. Far too short. The problem of course is that when she is most sought-after a young beautiful girl is also most inexperienced. Youth is wasted on the young and all that. By the time she wises up-- that is, notices that guys are not falling over themselves to win her favors anymore-- it is too late. The wave of younger girls who were just kids when she started her Reign, have now matured into their own Power Years.

No one said it is fair.

Well, I personally think this is nonsense and a completely outdated concept. It is true that, after a certain age, the risk of a pregnancy increases. But, with today's medical advancements, that age is NOT 23. I personally do not think most 23 year olds should be having babies yet - that age is a time to enjoy life, travel, advance your career, explore potential partners for life etc.
There is plenty of time to have children in the late-20s to mid-30s and still do so safely.

Besides, many choose not to marry or have children at all. And if a man is so superficial as to choose a life partner only based on looks and childbearing ability, then you probably want to reconsider him as a life partner.

I agree with Gretchen. I have a 23 year old and he is in no way ready for marriage and children. Not that he isn't a mature adult, but I can see that he just isn't ready to handle this kind of responsibility and at 23 he shouldn't have to.

Not to get to far off topic but 23 may be a tad young to have children but 30 is a tad late. There are risk that increase with age and getting pregnate at 30 and older greatly increases them.

Science is great and all but Cancer is greater.

finding out if you are sexually compatible is important to a relationship.sex is not the most important thing in a relationship but is definetely at the top of the list.
