That’s ok, I cannot judge those people at all. Instead of having sex in general there are other alternatives or options in mind. Instead of going all out with sex all the time when you have that urge or feeling. In “Bonk chapter 10” they discuss this different alternative and that would be masturbation. This article or chapter is mainly targeting the women in our society that have those feelings but not have sex the answer masturbation. The article is about two researchers who have seemed to have developed a device to help with women masturbate and handle their business. “It is more of a change from instead of physical to stimulus arousal.” (Bonk ch.10 pg2) One woman at the clinical trials for this device explains that “it was functioning more as a long term therapy” (Bonk Ch.10 pg 2) “It’s something you use independent sex, like push-ups or jumping jacks.” As she continued to explain. Another device that was oddly mentioned in this chapter was the use of a vacuum cleaner. Though that would be painful and even cause bruising if you are into that go for it. Even though the mention the price tag on this new device these two researchers have created to be four- hundred dollars. (Bonk chap.10 pg 3) Go for that or find something that is less pricey that will get the job
I am not against people wanting to wait until marriage, and I don’t care if people personally do not want to use contraceptives. What does bother me is when people begin to limit other people’s freedoms and expect other people to adhere to the same religious code that they themselves follow. What also bothers me is parents who refuse to talk to their children about sex and healthy sexual behaviours, because they have the naïve mindset that their kids will abstain from sex until marriage, just because they told them it’s the only way. Not only is this a disservice to their children, it’s also dangerous, as kids will not know what a healthy sexual relationship looks like, but will rather form their own ideas of what a healthy sexual relationship looks like from unreliable sources, such as pornography or the media. They will also not be properly educated on what constitutes sexual assault, and they won’t be aware about STI’s and how to properly protect oneself from them. The bottom line is this: talk to your kids about sex, even if you don’t want them having
Sex can blind people into getting married, but one day the blinders will be taken off and the married coup will realize that they do not know each other. Dr. Miller clarified that the reason sex is only you to be awaken inside a covenant marriage is because it due to the fact that sex is

In the early Middle Ages and long before this time, contraception and birth control were easily discussable and were common conversations among people until the mid-fourteenth century (McFarlane & Meier). So why did this information disappear and why is it so difficult to talk about this today? Right about the time that the witch trials began, many birth control methods were lost. It is said to be that most midwives (a person who delivers babies), were killed as witches in the trials, therefore losing information about old contraception methods (McFarlane & Meier). It is then easy to see why birth control and contraception methods were no longer talked about, as they were associated with witches. But in today’s world, about 99% of women
The reason such debate has arose over the years is because there are many diverse opinions about the topic. Children are now faced with problems at a much earlier age than years passed. There must be a way to reach the children before they are in such need of help and are clueless about the devastating problems around them. Sex education is one step in the right direction, when it comes to the health of our children, and the guarantee of a solid future.
Who wants to have children? As teenagers, we try to avoid becoming (or making someone) pregnant, and may think we don’t even want children. As we get older our opinions may change and we may decide that we do actually want kids when the time, and our age is right. What we don’t realize is having kids is not a certainty in life, whether you plan or don’t plan to. The ability to have children is a blessing, and one many people take for granted, because having kids doesn’t just happen. A lot of things need to come together for a man and a woman to be fertile.
Planned parenthood is funded for the low income families who need health care. If politicians “defund” Planned Parenthood and have their way, they will block millions of patients who depend on Medicaid and other public health care programs from accessing care at Planned Parenthood health centers. They also want to shut down the planned parenthood centers. If that were to happen, it would cause a national health care disaster. Many Planned Parenthood patients, nearly half who are people of color and who live in rural areas, would have nowhere else to turn for health care. Per year, Planned Parenthood health centers provide birth control for 2 million people,
This ties back into the disgust point in that people generally will inflict their disgust response against women who have had sex before marriage and it does not matter if it was the woman's choice or not. In the book, Beck makes a comment about how sex often is looked upon as unclean or impure, “Sex isn’t just ‘wrong’: there is something ‘unclean’ and often disgusting about the activity” (p.160). When outside people look at those who have had sex before marriage, especially in the christian society, they are looked at as being unclean. However, this generally only applies to women. When men have sex before marriage they usually get a “slap on the wrist” or a talking to.
Finding the news of being pregnant is a big pill to swallow. You keep telling yourself that everything is going to be ok, but nothing seems to be working. Your mind is going from thought to thought and it feels like the walls are closing in on you. You just tell yourself that it’s just some mistake, that you’re not pregnant. Your doctor enters the room and tells you how long you’re pregnant for. Your heart stops. Your face turns a white pale color. "Life is over" you keep telling yourself. The doctor begins telling explaining your options, appointments. ext.
...e has their own personal opinions in which they are entitled to, but that doesn’t mean that we should turn our backs on our youth because we are afraid or prefer to avoid talking about sex. As a society we need to stop viewing sex as a something negative or wrong and start educating ourselves on safe sex practices. It is our responsibility as a society to help guide our children, not to stand by and watch them destroy their futures. Even if certain religious beliefs teach not having sex prior to marriage it is still wise be educated on the facts. Knowledge is power and being taught sex education could prevent adolescents from being blindsided with an unwanted pregnancy or a disease they didn’t even know existed. It all comes down to choice in the end and we must stand up and unite on the issue of teaching safe sex to our youth, in order to ensure a better future.

Female contraception was first defined in the late 1800’s as the deliberate prevention of conception or impregnation by various techniques, drugs, or devices. The access of female contraception for women has been a subject of debate for thousands of years. Women should have access to contraception because of the health benefits it provides not only physically, but mentally. The use of female contraception supports gender equality, and lastly, the use of contraception provides new arguments against an aging Catholic church.
Sex out of wedlock, divorces, childbirth out of wedlock, etc. are all seen as normal circumstances currently. Marriage is an indissoluble bond which means it cannot be broken for the rest of the life after the bond is made. The Church wants to stress the importance of marriage to a relationship and the significance of marriage in reference to Jesus’ loving sacrifice to all. Marriage is a symbol of the sacrifice Jesus made of himself out of love for mankind. Through marriage, the Lord allows us to experience that love with one another as Jesus loves us. Conjugal love can reach that extent of love which all married people are called
Sex before marriage is very often a touchy subject. However, I feel that sex before marriage is a very important subject that is not brought up and talked about enough. There are many different viewpoints brought to the table when talking about this particular subject. The standards of society are constantly changing. One sign of this change is that nowadays many young adults seem to be open to premarital sex. Although I have heard many good arguments from people both pro- and anti- sex before marriage, I have yet to change my stance on this matter. In my opinion, having sexual intercourse before getting married is absolutely a bad tendency in our society.
Due to culture, such customs have been hard to get rid of and improve upon, especially with many of this shame originating from organized religion. In recent years though, conservatism on this education has lessened and allowed for students to be taught about sex, especially through health class. Debra Houser puts it as “[a]bout half of all young people begin having sex by age 17. Providing a foundation of quality sexual education is the only way to ensure that young people grow into sexually healthy adults.” Based on this study it would also be wise to start teaching about actual intercourse and everything that goes with it, contraceptives, pregnancy, diseases, and healthy relationships, before puberty.
