Why You Should Wait Till Marriage

For some odd reason in the current generation the value of waiting for marriage has been almost completely diminished. Kids think that they can just have sex with whoever they want and whenever they want without even taking the time to think about how it will affect them or their future. With more cases of younger kids having sex before marriage I believe that the world has become desensitized to that fact, and has practically just allowed it to happen. Yes, there are some nice attempts to try to prevent it, kind of...but it does not seem so much as prevention from sexually transmitted diseases as of abstinence from sex altogether.
Coming from a Christian back ground I personally believe that sex should be saved for that one person who you will end up spending the rest of your life with. I know that is not the most popular view in this day and age but there are more benefits, I believe, from waiting till marriage than there are from having sex with one or many partners.
Coming from a medical point of view it is personally safer to wait because if you do have sex usually you do not know what you are getting yourself into. You do not know if the person you are sleeping with has an sexually transmitted disease (STD), aids, or anything; and if they had sex with multiple people then you have an even greater chance to be infected yourself. Yea when you are young you think condoms and birth control protects you from everything but that is simply the innocence of youth speaking.
The other reason why people should wait till marriage is because sex is a very personal and emotional thing. If you have sex with other people and then find that one person you want to marry you would have wished that you could have saved yourself for them instead of giving yourself away time and again to people who now do not even matter, and for what? Then you have all this emotional baggage that not just you but your partner have to live with for the rest of your lives. I believe this makes the marriage weak and is one of the many causes for divorce which is rampant throughout the country these days. That is why you should wait till marriage.
