Just a quick observation...

So whenever the topic of sex comes up with people who dont really know me, and it becomes a point of information/conversation that I'm a virgin, the first response is ALWAYS: "Oh, you're a Christian?"

Yes, Christians believe that sex before marriage is wrong, so most remain virgins till marriage, but why is it always the first assumption?

Can't it just be that the person WANTS to remain a virgin?

It got me thinking on what kind of messages are being sent out. Yes, I'm all for comprehensive Sex-Ed. Yes I promote it. Yes, I even advocate for it. But I still wonder what kind of abstinence sensitization messages are being sent out. Not only to say that abstinence is still an option, but to say you dont have to be a Christian, lesbian, gay, or freak to remain a virgin. That its just as "ok" to be a virgin.

Just a thought.
