I don't know. I suspect many women a hundred years ago would have expected it.

All except for one difference, which is that a hundred years ago few man would wait till age 33+ to get married in the first place ;-)

Yep

Yes, it was considered a virtue, and still is for those with morally sound beliefs!

I say "Bravo" for this guy. He will make a wonderful faithful husband and father someday.

More likely, they would have EXPECTED it. And consequently respected it.

What is so strange about a person who chooses to have respect for himself, respect for women, and decides he's not going to be controlled by his groin? Why is that viewed with such disdain? He's actually onto something here. He's learned something that is apparently beyond the grasp of most people today, who are led about by their lusts, and think that if they can have sex, they should or must. Sex is a union of spirits, not just a union of body parts. He's figured that out!

Of course, women have been brainwashed to believe that men are nothing more than apes with a brain, and that the one thing that is certain is that he wants sex, wants it at his earliest opportunity, and will do anything to get it. If you ask me, women are the stupid ones for giving it up so easily. It's a lack of self-respect, and a lack of self-control.

Women 100 years ago got married 10 years younger, with 15 not being an uncommon age. In fact, I knew of someone in high school who married out of 9th grade at 15. Staying celibate to 15 should not be a problem. There is no point waiting 15 more years for that one-in-a-million. That would take at least a few millennia. If you marry one-in-twenty, you've got the top 5%. You are not going to get the top 1% unless you are the top 1-2% yourself anyway.
