Abstinence Pride

Sexual abstinence is a deliberate restraint from indulging a desire or appetite for certain bodily activities affrequently, the term refers to abstention from sexual intercourse until one is married and faithful to one partner.
Common reasons to deliberately abstain from the physical expression of sexual desire include biblical reasons, material reasons (to prevent undesired pregnancy) or STD transmission), psycho-sociological reasons, negative past experiences, or to conform to legal injunctions.
Why abstain?
God calls us to offer our bodies to Him as holy and pleasing sacrifices, for us to do that we have to be pure in all areas body, soul and spirit. Sexual abstinence till holy matrimony enables us to honour God in this matter!
Secondly if two people don't have sex, there is no possibility of a pregnancy unless we are going to have another Jesus born, which to me will never happen, it was accomplished 2007 years ago! With abstinence, no barriers or pills are necessary because the person is not having sex.
Abstinence is 100% effective in preventing STDS including AIDS. Although condoms can have relative rates of success if used "perfectly", they can fail occasionally. Practicing abstinence ensures that one will not get infected because there is no opportunity for the virus to be transmitted to them. Many of us know that,Some STDs spread through oral-genital sex, anal sex, or even intimate skin-to-skin contact without actual penetration (genital warts and herpes can be spread this way). So only avoiding all types of intimate genital contact can prevent STDs.
Owing to that, only complete and consistent abstinence can totally prevent pregnancy and protect against STDs. Because a person does not have any type of intimate sexual contact when he or she practices complete abstinence, there is no risk of passing on a sexually transmitted infection.Consistent abstinence means that someone practices abstinence all the time. Having sex even once means that the person risks getting an infection.
Well not having sex may seem easy because it's not doing anything. But peer and media pressure can make the decision to practice abstinence more difficult.If it seems like everybody else is having sex, some people may feel they have to do it too, just to be accepted. Don't let kidding or pressure from friends, a girlfriend, a boyfriend, or even the media push you into something that's not right for you. The truth is that most teens are not having sex. Question is are you one of them?
You dont have to be a virgin to practice abstinence. If you have fallen before, dont stay down, get up, stand and run with the rest of us in this race. I believe in new beginnings!! No one will make this decision for you, not your mom, dad, boy/girl friend, only you can!! This is arace for the courageous and principled men and women of this generation, let the cowards go with the crowd!
Otherwise abstinence does not mean hating or not relating to the opposite sex. A couple can still have a relationship(Courtship) without having sex. If you've made a decision not to have sex, it's an important personal choice and the people who care about you should respect that.Its common knowledge that "TRUE LOVE WAITS!!"
