hot kasi ang mga pinoy these days, di tulad dati nung time pa nina lolo at lola na bawal ang pre-marital sex. Maybe na haloan ang culture natin ng ibang nationalities like americans…but i think pre-marital sex is better than illegal drugs…

i dont think it’s such a big deal to have sex before marriage……but 15 is really young that’s why the school system in the philippines should include sex education in their curriculum if it’s not already included. that way atleast those kids can learn to protect themselves against STD’s.

hindi na pala ako kasama sa survey na ito. 27 na kasi me, sayang virgin pa naman ako
September 27th, 2007 at 9:55 am

September 27th, 2007 at 6:01 pm
for me its not good to have been included to dis kind of situation…hndi mganda sa mga teenager ngyon ang “premarital sex”… dats 4 me….im jst 16 pro im not thinking of dat bad things.
October 1st, 2007 at 9:44 am
boto ako kay zusette….
hindi dapat isama ang sex education sa curriculum study kasi nangahuhulugAN lang yan sa pagiging aggresive na mga kabataan ngayon sa sex sapagkat ika nga sex education..
eh di natuto talaga sa pagka may-alam sa sex…
tulad nlang sa issue “error on the books” kung saan ang aklat ay may pamagat na
“ari; titi ng lalaki” at nai.distribute na nga ito nationwide dito sa pilipinas sa limang baitang pah..
mga grade school kadalasan ang bumabasa ng mga aklat…
bakit hindi yan sisusuri??

i think having sex with your partner once ne hnd p kau married is relly bad kaya dapat maging maingat tau s mga time ngayon. i think kailangan p ring ituro ang sex education sa mag school para ma educate ang mga students at lawakan ang kanilang pananaw sa buhay.

cguro kailangan ng patnubay ng magulang kapag ang kanilang anak ay humantong na sa edad ng pagdadalaga at pagbibinata dahil ito ang stage na mapanuri ang mga kabataan, kayat maraming kabataan ang nananaliksik about sex, kaya ang magulang na lang dapat ang magturo ng mag impormasyon about sa sex, at dapat di rin sila mahiya makipagsangguni dahil ang anak nila ay nahihiya din magtanung sa kanila about sex

sex is a good exercise!!! jeje.. it’s good 4 our health..
ahhhmmm not only teen agers are doing it
but also our lolas or the persons that are born in
the 1st century.. they are just shy to admit it…
even even politicians do it, celebrity do it..
not only ordinary people,.. for me it’s not a big deal anymore…
by the way… there is no such verse in the bible that says
“though shall not have sex before merriage”
peace!!!!

sa aking palagay ang premarital sex ay nakakasira ng pagaaral at sa kinabukasan ka pagbawalan na yan… magpasa kaya sila ng batas ng pagbabawal ng mag premarital sex
October 7th, 2007 at 6:09 pm
It’s been indicated in the bible that fornication is not 4 the body….sex is good but in the context of marriage…….kaya bumaba2 ung moralidad natin dahil sa premartal sex…..

Well I believe that many youth are very sexually irresponsible!!!and the reason is because they dont have knowledge about it. and because the youth today are very mapusok!!!and kulang sila sa gabay ng magulang!!!because i believe that if you have respect to yourself!!you must not be part of this premarital sex!!!
It is just my opinion!!
November 22nd, 2007 at 11:38 am
ew!! kadiri talaga ang pre marital sex!! yak para lang yan sa mga babae at lalaking walang delikadisa sa sarili.

sex is such a harsh word for those people who think that it is the most intimate and sacred thing that God allowed us to do, but eventhough it feels good it only makes us feel guilty towards ourselves because we allowed ourselves to commit a sin.
November 26th, 2007 at 12:01 pm
tama yan… kc pinoy these days are easily influenced by other cultures… like americans… people kc ngaun ayaw maiba… gus2 nila “go with the flow

it is depend on how we define sex. basta ang importante alam natin ang ating ginagawa. we need to be responsible. may mga bagay na di natin makokontrol kahit na ano pa ang turo ang gawin natin. be responsible na lang
November 29th, 2007 at 10:27 am
basta maganda rin na sana may information na ilagay about premarital sex kasi hindi lang ang mga nasa age ang kayang mag operate ng internet
December 8th, 2007 at 12:29 pm
what’s the whole deal with pre-marital sex anyway?it’s not as if we all need it to live. ang paniniwala ko lang ang pre-marital sex nangangahulugan lang yan na ang mga bata ngayon hindi na makontrol-ng sistema, ng magulang, ng eskuwelahan.. they’re thinking for themselves and in a sense you can’t get through them. kaya hindi lang naman pre-marital sex ang problema, ang problema ngayon ay kung paano mo makokontrol ang paniniwala at pag-iisip ng mga kabataan. with regards to pre-marital sex , tingnan mo naman ang paligid….parang natanggap narin naman natin ang fact na sex is all around is ehemplo na ang mga fhm, mga websites na hindi dapat para sa mga bata, mga shows sa tv…nandiyadiyan na lahat ang impluwensiya…hindi mo rin sila mablame sa pinili nila tho dapat mas alam nila ang pinapasukan nila..ilan na riyan ang mga teenager na ina…ano na ang susunod na mangyayari????12 years old naman ang kasma sa pre-marital sex.???tapos bababa ulit?
December 13th, 2007 at 4:02 pm
hey! premarital sex is not really good, it is only done by married couple…
December 13th, 2007 at 4:07 pm
i agree that sex education should not be included in the curriculum… because if it is taught they will become more curious of it thats why many of the teenagers are indulge in some kind of activities.
December 19th, 2007 at 4:09 pm
kakatuwa naman mga suggestions nyo..its helpful talaga para maavoid yong ganitong mga incidents
December 19th, 2007 at 4:25 pm
masasabi ko lang sex is gift from God but having pre marital sex is not right, we learn to wait until the day we get married.

nothing is permanent except changes….from the maria clara effect of being a tradional mahinhin effect filipina and a crisostomo ibbarra effect of pagiging maginoo comes the word being liberated in line with modernization and globalization and thus PMS becomes a norms.and its a natural thing
January 27th, 2008 at 5:34 pm

premarital sex is immoral it is a sexual intercourse between two unmarried person. bible define premarital sex as fornuication.
February 2nd, 2008 at 2:42 am
Pre marital sex is considered immoral in the context of the Church and religion for a reason. It includes the preservation of one’s dignity and confidence as well as the sacredness of marriage. Yes sex is considered good, ecstatic, euphoric and whatsoever but I think people who engages in casual sex outside marriage is risking so much of him/herself.
February 2nd, 2008 at 2:49 am
oh please the loss of morals in the society is the product of globalization and modernization. being liberated does not entail more guilt and immorality to a person.

pms hmmmmmmmmm. its just a fantasy agression and intention. to fulfilkl fantasy but pms is not that bad but on onther hand msama tlaga kc may marami kabataan these days na d nakapagtapos na pag aaral coz of pms and also pms its not love that we feel wen we engage into it its just our curiosity of what it would we feel when we do it then after that plagi na kaya wala nah!
February 7th, 2008 at 12:08 pm
Yes pms is indeed, unlawful and unrighteous act.
I would better wait for the right person that God assigned for me.
I was once engage into this thing before, but it does no good to me. It just make me feel unworthy for my husband to be and it makes my life messy. But thanks God he saved from this. Its worth to wait for the right time and right person.
February 8th, 2008 at 4:50 pm
well pms is just a matter of exploration and satisfaction of oneself…yes,indeed it was satisfying to have fornication but be sure of the consequences you may encounter…masarap yan pag gnawa together with your loveone basta be sure na kapag binigay mo na sa lalaki ang iyong pagkababae,cguraduhin mo na hindi lang sex ang habol nya saiyo,bagkus,pananagutan ka nya whatever happens.. Life is too short, but aggressiveness sometimes turned out to be a mess of your life…learn from the people experiences around you… be careful guys,,,its a matter of gambling, ur life is at stake…ganyan ka-simple..pero di ganyan kadali…
February 9th, 2008 at 9:02 am
there is absolutely nothing wrong with sex, the issue here is not about sex at all rather its about the effects of sex that we should be focusing on. let’s say an adolescent has sex, there’s nothing wrong with that but the mere fact that it may entail a possible pregnancy or an abortion is what is questioned. so liberation no it’s not an issue but the fact that young ones are at it and may jeopardize the well cultivated future those of us who are older have created is what is bugging us.we continue to say that sex should be more valued in order for the youth to put it on a pedestal to make them realize that in the end whatever comes out of the act could be something that does hold meaning to them. thus sex call it what you want i.e liberation, excercise, practice of free will, something that may be immoral or moral whichever whatever at the end of the day people do it no matter what it’s called, no matter what religion or belief they hold. what’s at question is the immorality that comes when a baby is in the picture or how it may influence others.

pre marital sex is a bad things or attitude who done by many teenager, so for me, isa itong pinakamasamang gawain ng isang kabataan na wala sa right age.

February 19th, 2008 at 7:27 pm
Well guyz i really dont have a full grasp about this matter but for me premarital sex is somewhat good(modernistic) and of course somewhat bad(religious). Just in the sense that persons involved are doing and taking responsibility on what they had done. If no responsiblity acquired in either of the party ,well, the most affected here in this issue is the girl not the guyz and thats the time i will say “oh my, girl you picked the wrong guy to love”
February 22nd, 2008 at 10:51 am

The bible did not mention explicitly it’s restriction for pre-marital sex. but there’s a term, in Proverbs, that signify this: FORNICATION (sex between unmarried couples).
God doesn’t want his people to harbor physical and emotional problems so he commanded sexual purity prior to marriage. PMS is physically and emotionally unsafe.
It’s exciting and pleasurable, YES, but it is to be enjoyed by married couples. It’s ultimately designed for re-creation, not for recreation.
Value your body.
Love your life.
Your beliefs and principles should match your practices.
TEENS aren’t dull…
Think of consequences.

ganon ba?.? pero sa panahon natin ngayon. hindi nman sa ok ang pre-marital sex! pero dapat paring mag ingat kasi madami nang mga pilipino ang hindi nakakatapos ng pag-aaral kasi nagpakasal sa dahilang buntis na!
lalo na sa mga 15 above..
grabeh nman… dapat hindi lang sarili nila ang iniisap nila! pano na ang kanilang mga magulang na umaasang magkakaroon sila ng magandang kinabukasan?..
nakakalungkot naman na mababalewala nalang nag mga paghihirap nila para mapagtapos ang kanilang mga anak!

I can’t imagine a world without sex but it is safer to do it under the blessing of the Holy One. However, the world may seems at its darker side since the arrival of the great minds we called liberalists but after all lead us to the great abyss of slavery and condemnation of addiction that may be impossible to passed for the rewards unsurprisingly a punishment in disguised! Better keep your dself pure in your own ways but never neglect the power of darkness within you! Know your self! To know is to be free!
March 11th, 2008 at 7:41 pm
premarital sex is a sin… come to think of it? mga boys, gusto niyo bang makapag-asawa ng may experience na at di na masyadong nasasatisfy ang dapat na satisfaction na gusto mo dahil may nauna na? to the other side, sa mga girls, gusto niyo bang pandirian ng mga nagiging asawa niyo?? kasi nga nakaganun na kayO?? hmm???

Fornication is a term which refers to consensual sexual intercourse between two persons not married to each other. In contrast adultery is consensual sex where one or both of the partners are married to someone else.
The origin of the word derives from Latin. The word fornix means “an archway” or “vault” (in Rome, prostitutes could be solicited there). More directly, fornicatio means “done in the archway”; thus a euphemism for prostitution.
Fornication is dealt with differently in various religions, societies and cultures. The Philippines is a Catholic nation and our stand on fornication is conservative. Although government itself has no laws punishing those who commit fornication, the Church is firm in its dogma that sex before and outside marriage is against the law of God.
We can attribute this to an increasingly sex-oriented media, influenced by Western liberalization. Movies, commercials and music alike are becoming more and more sexually suggestive to the youth. Access to the internet which can only be filtered to a minimum extent can also prove to be a source for sexual provocation.
Today, many venues for meeting prospective consensual sex partners are accessible to youths (e.g. bars, motels, etc). Peer pressure can make matters worse, when young people are influenced by their peers to try and do things.
March 12th, 2008 at 4:50 pm
to tell you the truth, it doesnt feel so good after doing the act, you know… maybe it can be attributed to biological phenomenon in males called post-ejaculatory depression, but still… the guilt follows…
March 15th, 2008 at 5:57 pm
sex is not a proof of love to your partner. a boy-girl relation can survive long even without sex. SEX IS SANCTIFIED ACTIVITY THAT REQUIRES THOROUGH AND DEEP PLANNING AND ANALYSIS, AND NOT AN ACTIVITY FOR IESURE OR AN EXPERIMENT……….

PMS… its no longer a big deal nowadays… basta safe sex lang, just always use protection and enjoy it!!!!
