No Sex Before Marriage..

[basilandthyme]

Before this sexual revolution women stayed virgin before marriage and none of them felt sexually deprived..

Women stayed virgins before the sexual revolution? Bollocks. Have you never heard of a 'shotgun' marriage?

Neither of my grandmothers were virgins when they married. One was pregnant when she married and I inherited the diary of the other and read about it. We're talking about the late 1920's through to late 1930's - way before sexual revolution.

Lol, epic fail @ history on part of whoever said that. My God, how misinformed can you get?

Idealistic hippie BS. That's not how it works in the real world, junior, so I'd suggest quit reading Thoreau to the accompaniment of The Doors and observe the real world.

LR, for you to accuse others of not knowing how the real world works is at about the logical equivalent of Adolf Hitler preaching against the evils of racial intolerance. Here you are talking about sex in a way that I would expect from a 6 year old who just went to church for the first time and thinks girls have cooties and you simultaneously attempt to claim that I am the one who's out of touch with reality? People like you are what earned us the international monicker "Ass-Backwards America".

Another post that fails to refute anything. "You're a pothead", "you read Thoreau", "you're a hippie"...brilliant arguments lol

It was Fjortis who said women stayed virgins before the sexual revolution. Your post kinda makes it look like I said it. ;-)

Most women stayed virgin before marriage about 100 years ago, which is not a very long time if you consider the whole history of humankind. Then there was the era of sex and "promiscuity" or sexual freedom, when being a virgin after 18 was considered almost crazy, and now people are gradually coming back to their senses and the value of purity especially in women is being recognized as important again and restored. It is like that with anything new that comes up; at first people are overwhelmed and excited about it, but after a while their excitement subsides and their view becomes more objective and rational. That is when they re-evaluate the situation critically. That is what's slowly happening now..

I had to read it about 4 times...and I kinda wasn't sure. I figured you agreed with me, but the doubts set in

You cited the sexual revolution. The sexual revolution was in the 1960's when 'the pill' was invented.

Go back to the medieval times and you'll find all kinds of debauchery. It's not just the last 100 years.

Assuming you're referring to my comment about my grandmothers? I love family history and all it's skeletons.

My maternal grandmother got pregnant and was thrown out of home. My grandfather went looking for her and found her making a living as a cleaner. He married her and they had a very long and happy marriage. Though the interesting thing which came out of it was that the baby conceived before marriage was born with a significant mental disability. My great grandmother said to my grandmother - this is because you sinned! It's just too awful to imagine, isn't it.

My paternal grandmother referred to her husband-to-be to be as being experiened, but wasn't going to get her 'in trouble'. I assume she was referring to the withdrawal method. She also mentions her friends sneaking off into the bushes with her boyfriends and that she guessed what they were up to.

These are some of the most sexually constipated times compared to many eras in history. That's well documented.
