If everyone pacticed safe sex there'd be no std's either.

Yes, any animal can have sex. Did you suppose you were a mineral or a vegetable (which have sex too btw)? Human beings are animals. Of course it is difficult to not have sex when you want to have sex. That is not the issue. The issue is what is the value in your position. None of you has rationally explained why being ignorant..by defnition all virgins are ignorant..is to be desired.

If I knew "how well we work together, communicate, how much our respect and love for each other shows through" was like first hand I'd wait too?? Sugarcane - don't you read, honeychild?

Yes, I am an asset becuse I am one of the few who is rational and experienced - been there and have done that. I have not been a virgin for a long time. I wasn't one when I married the best man on earth. I have been married to the same alpha male for 33 years now and after numerous military excursions, two careers, two kids, and two grandkids, we still adore each other. Yes, we know each other's flaws but they hardly matter. And yes, you can enjoy sex AND "how well we work together, communicate, how much our respect and love for each other shows through" simultaneously. The sex doesn't, necessarily, cancel the other out.

You two have barely begun life's adventure. I have been living life's adventure far longer than most on here and it has been one marvelous life so far, thank you very much!

I do not base my advice solely on myself. I pay attention to the latest research. I consult other persons. There is a huge body of literature on this subject. But I do not put up with nonsense, emotion based arguments, and canned claptrap. I am not doubting your right to be one if you wish.

What I am challenging is the reason you made that choice. You all just say "I decided.." which doesn't answer the question:

WHY

BTW I was banned in error.
