This article is based on my moral beliefs, and is not really related to politics. As you can tell, this article is about my beliefs of sex in relationships, some about relationships, and sex in general. Over the years, it seems, that many souls have begun to see it as OK to have sex outside of wedlock. Really, until the 60’s and 70’s, having sex, much less a child, outside of wedlock; then, sex became accepted as an act that lovers, people in a crush, or even strangers could do, not only out of wedlock, but whenever or with almost whoever they could get with, with almost no consequence, if any. Up until recent times, society frowned on sexual relationships outside of wedlock, and many societies even made any non-married sex partners pay a price that they thought was necessary. The truth is that sex was seen as an act that only married couples should practice. Now, the theme seems to be that it is just fine if you have sex with a partner, if you really love them. This is quite disturbing and only makes for a great amount of disasters. As many know, sex makes the partners attached emotionally, and besides, sex always has the possibly of an STD being passed along and childbirth. The STD is something that should not be spread at all, but children are something that should be protected, and that cannot happen outside of wedlock! A truly and successful married couple is the only guarantee of some amount of security for the child and the parents! And to make matters worse, society accepts the idea of people having sex just because. This is not even remotely moral and should not be practiced; the only good that comes out is a little pleasure, and that is overshadowed by many evils and problems that occur. Sex is a thing for a married couple to do, no one else. Relationships of a man and a woman such as dating and going out are very special. These relationships should be working for a conclusion if these people are ready for marriage or not. If so, the sex should wait for the marriage, but if a couple doesn’t get married, they shouldn’t have sex. An unmarried couple should be able to be together and not have sex, no matter when or where. I just see sex as a special act that should happen between a married couple, and that is it. Both as a Catholic and as an American, and I hope and pray that all who read this will at least consider, and hopefully think about waiting until marriage for sex. Please don’t ruin your life or relationship for a mere feeling of pleasure.
