You’re not ready to have sex if…

1. You think sex equals love. 2. You feel pressured. 3. You’re afraid to say no. 4. It’s just easier to give in. 5. You think everyone else is doing it. (They’re not!) 6. Your instincts tell you not to. 7. You don’t know the facts about pregnancy. 8. You don’t understand how birth control works. 9. You don’t think a woman can get pregnant the first time. (She can.) 10. It goes against your moral beliefs. 11. It goes against your religious beliefs. 12. You’ll regret it in the morning. 13. You feel embarrassed or ashamed. 14. You’re doing it to prove something. 15. You can’t support a child. 16. You can’t support yourself. 17. Your idea of commitment is a 3-day video rental. 18. You believe sex before marriage is wrong. 19. You don’t know how to protect yourself from the HIV – the virus that causes AIDS. 20. You don’t know the signs and symptoms of sexually transmitted infections (STIs, also called STDs). 21. You think it will make your partner love you forever. 22. You think it will make you love your partner. 23. You think it will keep you together. 24. You hope it will change your life. 25. You don’t want it to change your life.

I have always said “many girls are sorry they didn’t wait but not many are sorry they did”.

RE :”You think it will make your partner love you forever”

What? Sex alone doesn't make that happen?

First of all, what does that comment have to do with the subject at issue?

Second, is your hand tired after all that slapping on your back?

God Bless you for the difference you’ve made in the lives of those two children, as if the joy of raising them isn’t enough blessing already.

26. You forget your anniversary.

27. You insist on demonstrating that your wife is wrong (about anything).

Nope.

Number one should be the answer given as number fifteen; if you can’t support a child.

As a matter of fact, the list should be at least twice as long and “if you can’t support a child” should be reiterated every odd number.

Is is an assertion that makes some freepers furious. They get angry when moral people insist there must continue to be legal penalties for adults who have sex with minors.

You try to keep a low profile — and no - I don’t slap my self on the back - I consider myself blessed that I was chosen to raise these 2 kids and that God intervened to make sure I wasn’t killed in Iraq so that I could provide a safe, warm, and financially stable household for 2 kids that needed a place to grow up — so why don’t you keep that low profile to yourself asshole!

28. Your idea of foreplay is "you awake?"

The vast majority of America’s problems with sex are based on the lack of a single social system: a way for boys and girls to have extended association with each other in a chaperoned, safe manner, *without* distractions. This has to happen for long periods at frequent intervals over the course of many years.

Most people assume that such interaction happens either in school or in church, but the truth is that in either case, children are kept too busy to interact.

People who raise dogs know that if a dog is isolated from other dogs, it will begin to see other dogs as “the enemy”, not part of their human-dog family. At maturity, dogs will still want to mate, but it is much harder, because they are conflicted between mating and fighting. There may be sex, but no friendly relationship between animals.

Why should children be markedly different from dogs?

Perhaps a good approach would be treating it like a social “finishing school”, which is more like practicing politeness instead of an intellectual exercise of learning about it.

Everything about it is “boy-girl-boy-girl”, to break up the natural desire to segregate by gender. While on the surface it is all about etiquette and manners, in reality it is to accomplish extended polite interaction between boys and girls, so that they learn how to do so. And importantly, it is chaperoned, so that there are adult men and women there to act as guides and prevent rudeness and misbehavior.

While they are taught things, the emphasis is on practicing what they have been taught with each other. Table manners, polite conversation, courtesies, body language, the list goes on and on.

The end result is hoped to be that when they are adults, they will be able to politely interact with each other, have a greater understanding of the other gender, to act on better principles than impulse, and to take more than their own point of view into account.

Actually number 1 should be: “You are not married.”

Absolutely correct...but then “the love of God is the soul of morality” so that explains the corrupted path many American have chosen.

Pray that our nation turns back to God.

Congratulations on making it 25 years and keeping the romance!

The charming and delightful Mrs. USC and I have been married twenty-seven and a half years (after dating on/off for 6 years prior.) There's much to be said for keeping up the romance and constantly "winning your wife's heart" over along with a hefty dose of humor to sustain a marriage.

I'm sure anyone who's read my posts over the years I've been here on FR (since October 1998 IIRC) certainly knows that Mrs. USC must have one heck of a sense of humor to put up with me! ;-)

When I was in college the Playboy Advisor (Jim Peterson?) made a ‘speech’ on campus, and took ‘any and all questions’, read aloud without screening.

Mine brought the house down: “Who in the audience is a virgin against their will?”

Hilariously, dozens of hands went up.
