Whats left of us?

Recently,theres been more and more articles emerging regarding teen sex,pre marital sex and sexually transmitted diseases. The reports are alarming. With some comments made by those intereviewed shocking. Questions posted ranged from the morality of pre marital sex to views about having casual sex. It is disappointing to know that youths nowadays no longer view sex as something sacred. They view it as part and parcel of a social life. That friendships and relationships are built upon it. It is sad to see how things have become nowadays. Sex after marriage is no longer a goal. Rather,to lose one's virginity before marriage has now become a norm. If someone remains a virgin,he is considered as not being able to fit into the general society.Lose your virginity and you're considered normal. Go on sex romps and you become the admiration of others.It is weird to see how society has evolved. What happened to the "pleasures" of giving one's first time to their spouse? Isn't love supposed to be based upon feelings and emotions rather than physical lust? What happened to those promises of wanting to be together forever? Have they made way for the notion of "fire and forget?" One night stands are such common issues nowadays. Sadly,the situation is getting worse with every generation. What will happen in the generation of our children? Are we supposed to tell them to go outside and just engage in sex?For me,i have no qualms to admit that i am still a virgin and i will be glad to keep it this way till the day i am married. I will not crack under pressure despite people mocking me that i have yet to have my "first time". I'd rather not be a part of the norm than to have to live with regrets in life. I'd rather not get the chance to experience sex yet than to live with the horrors of having contracted sexually transmitted disease.Some say that you will never be so lucky to "get it" and better to experience sex now so that you can be a better lover for your spouse next time. But then again,i'd rather not take my chances and i'd rather remain a greenhorn if you get what i mean=).
