For most people, there's nothing wrong with premarital sex but for me, there is. How can it be called as such when you are not even sure of getting married afterward? It's like taking a bite of an apple and when you don't like the taste anymore you would simply throw it away, just like that.
Take this analogy for example:
You went to a grocery store, you checked at the fruits section, you found a very fresh apple, it captured your attention and discreetly took a bite. The worst thing when caught by a CCTV camera, you will be charged not only for the apple but your name, and your dignity is at stake. Lucky enough, you made your way to the counter and realized that you do not like the taste, decided to return it. You went out from the grocery area and move on to the next store to buy something else.
Premarital sex is the same as how you have taken a bite of an apple. What has been considered the greatest gift to your spouse is forfeited when you test-drive sex before marriage. Four out of my six respondents shared their thoughts about it.
Aya, a globetrotter, said, "a woman's virginity is for herself alone and not for anyone else. Your body, your rules. It depends on a person's preference and belief."
Odette, a confidant based in Germany and a nurse by profession, stated, "when the couple did it before marriage, it is how they expressed their love for one another. "
A Middle East contact added that, "there's nothing wrong with it because it is human instinct."
Dania, a previous student, based in Australia, said, "it should not be thought of as wrong if the couple did it out of love and not out of lust."
Consolidating their thoughts got me into thinking, am I way too outmoded for our modern era? Should there be an expiration date when it comes to self-knowledge about premarital sex? If most people were saying there's nothing wrong with it, then why it's an issue?
Looking in-depth, Thomas Aquinas on Marriage and Sex stated that what makes sexual pleasure related to "sin" or in lay man's term, what makes it wrong because it can bring the possible child into a situation where it does not have both parents to look after it.!
The possibility of bringing a child out of wedlock and both parties are not ready for the responsibility makes it so wrong to the point of addressing the issue resulting in abortion.
