Say no to premarital affairs
Say no to premarital affairsThere is no doubt that there are many reasons why
teenagers should not engage in premarital sex relationships. Although
teenagers, specially during this time, regard this activity as normal and a way of practicing, it is actually a dangerous, harmful, risky and seriously unsafe activity that implies many negative consequences. However, a statement from The Waters Organization demonstrates a generalization of the adult world’s point of view concerning this situation: “today it is still not a "socially

Premarital sex usually takes place sneaking around in hidden places dealing with the fear of being caught, the fear of pregnancy and feelings of guilt. All these worrisome factors threaten pleasure in premarital sex, most especially for women.
Another important factor concerning premarital sex implicates the subject of virginity. Virginity is to be given to the most important person in your life, the person you committed yourself to stay with forever in marriage.
