I will be presenting my opinion from the perspective of a lesbian heathen living in Texas. You've been warned.
So...
I have had no choice but to enjoy sex to the fullest because marriage is not an option where I am at. Until about 10 years ago I wouldn't in my
wildest imagination even think I would ever get to marry someone I love much less in so many states. But alas, Texas still doesn't let the gays get
married.
Marriage holds no special place in my heart because my group has been left out of the whole thing since forever. I really only see it as a legal
contract with built in power of attorney and tax benefits. I know there are glbt out there that get into the whole wedding thing but for the life of
me I can't figure out why.
I have had to pursue relationships based on love because that's the only thing that existed to hold them together. There was no contract from the
government or "blessing" from a church. It was simply the coming together of two individuals who cared for one another. Neither one was stuck and
both could leave at anytime. Even now with my long term girlfriend, there is no contract holding her down. There is no contract telling her that we
are in love. We just are.
Virginity to me does not equal purity. In fact, having satisfying sex with someone you care about is about the purest thing I've found on earth.
First time I had sex was the best thing ever. Never once looked back in regret and have been happily enjoying sex since that time. Sex is very
important to me. It makes me happier, calmer and more confident. When I hear of women never having orgasms I just can't imagine. They are awesome.
Why would you deny something so great that's built right in?
Anyway.
Needless to say I don't understand the whole "waiting til' marriage" thing. You wouldn't buy a car without test driving it first, why would you
marry someone without making sure you mesh together in bed?
With that being said, although raised in the "wait until you're married" spiel that most teenagers are taught from parents...it didn't apply to me
so I disregarded it.
But yeah, to me sex is awesome. I enjoy it on a regular basis. Don't get the whole hang up with virginity, never will.
At the end of the day though it is up to each individual.
My opinion though is that sex is a wonderful thing that should be explored to the fullest because it's awesome.
That is all.
