That's great!
I go to great lengths to stay out of other people's decisions and would hope they stay out of mine. I wouldn't say these things to someone face to face because I'd unduely push them into defense mode or unwittingly convince them I was right, but since we're all participating in a forum, here we go...
What is the deal with holding out on anything before marriage? What's the point? If you're trying to save experiences for certain times in life, then why not stop having ice cream, or not playing golf together? Why does it have to be sex, or kissing, or holding hands, or looking longly at each other?
It sounds like they wanted to impress their parents or their religion (what ever it is) by saying "we'll go to the extreme to make you proud." People don't do this to/for themselves alone. There's some underlying reason why and to experience "the big bang" isn't it...now to find out what it is...
This just seems like another 'sacred cow' arguement to me, meaning its something you can't question or they'll get pissed off and say that its their choice and to leave them alone. I have a hard time respecting people to make illogical arguments based on some emotional or religous foundation. If you can't explain why without saying 'just cuz I feel like it' then it doesn't make sense.
Was that a flame? I'm sorry, I had no idea I was so passionate about this subject.
