Winky said:Heh now he's got a GF that is saving herself for marrige!
Inkara1 said:They might be rare in the "United States of Canada," but in "Jesusland" a lot of girls are religious, and a huge amount are saving themselves for marriage. It's very frustrating for us guys... although, a lot of guys are abstaining too.
Inkara1 said:It's something along the lines of "my virginity is something I can only give once, so I'll keep it to give to the person I'm going to spend the rest of my life with."
Seriously... wtf for?
freako104 said:probably because they are taught it is a Sin to have sex outside of marriage
ClaireBear said:For which you believe in sin, believe in a good, believe in God...
Again wtf for?
On all four accounts!
I just hate those who are so righteous about keeping certain things in tact. I have my reasons... they may be a tad screwy Eric but they're mine....
Professur said:Claire, reread what you just wrote, will you. You just attacked someone else's righteousness with your own, and without justifying your position at all. I have my reasons is no more justification for a position than, God said so. In fact, it's much less.
ClaireBear said:One idiocy striking another then...
My reasoning and justification is personal and private...
Yes... I possibly shouldn't use something I'm not willing to share openly on a forum as a reason to back up a statement but type is a difficult medium to put across thoghts and feelings...
My response to Eric and the notion of "sex before marriage" would be much more valid if it were verbal and perhaps face to face.... as it wasn't... It came across badly.
I apologise for that and that alone... Not my feelings concerning the fact that "saving oneself" is considered worthy or right or that any one who does so is any better or virtuous than the next person. Not everyone can make it a choice.
Professur said:But worth is always a personal opinion, isn't it? Moral values, right and wrong. They're all personal. And all choices.
ClaireBear said:But to remain "whole clean unblemished unsullied" isn't always a choice...
I'm sure many wish it were always the case but sometimes its not and to put one girl on a pedestal for something that... although she has a made a decision about it... can in no way effect how deserving or good a person she is... is wrong. She's only been able to have a choice and a say in a matter that some girls have taken out of their hands completely.
