The Rat

Americans are prude about sex and their bodies only because of the Puritans. As if killing us and taking our land weren't enough, they had to ruin sex. Damned, dirty Puritans. Now we're stuck with grown men and women acting like kindergarteners when it comes to sex. Sex has been proven to be as physically and psychologically neccessary as food and sleep. I kid you not. Have you ever seen how angry a 30 year old virgin is? There are hundreds of them working here at MIT designing missiles. If they weren't virgins, they'd be at home having sex instead of making missiles. If there were no missiles, there'd be no war. The bottom line - VIRGINS CAUSE WARS.

Considering that marriage isn't even that sacred to most people anymore (think J-Lo) I don't know what people are waiting for. People marry for sport nowadays, and bail out of marriage at even the slightest sign of trouble. As a result, people that wait until they get married wind up banging as many people as those who don't in a lot of cases.

Sex is fun, so mate like bunnies.

OK, I've been avoiding replying to this subject until I could think of how I wanted to say what I need to say. PWC49 described my first marriage right there. I was rasied in a religious cult, and part of the cult teaching was to be a virgin when you got married. So, first off. . .I found a guy that I was great friends with, who believed like I believed, and then what is the next logical step at that age and under that belief system? To get married or commit what they called a sin (have sex out of wed-lock).

Well, that marriage went all kinds of wrong for almost five years! We did retain our good friend status, but the chemistry and romance was never there. Anyway, I remember on my wedding night (without going into too many details) I thought "THIS IS IT? I waited all this time for THIS? And turned down all those other guys for THIS?" I was sad and mad.

So, being a parent, I have given thought as to how I will try to explain this to my children, because I don't want them to go into a marriage like I did my first time, but I don't want them to be sleeping around with everythang that comes along either. I would encourage open communication between them and their partner, because I think that is where most of the problems come. Typically, one of the people in the relationship thinks just because they sleep together, then they are "together" and some people view sex as an activity only, and love is a whole other subject. Sex and love don't have to go hand-in-hand, but it's nice when it does. ;)

And yes, someone mentioned knowing the responsibility that goes along with sexual relationships--that's important to stress as well.

The Rat

1. Sex is a beauty treatment. Scientific tests find that when women make love they produce amounts of the hormone estrogen, which makes hair shine and skin smooth. Herbal Essenses is in deep sh!t

2. Gentle, relaxed lovemaking reduces your chances of suffering dermatitis, skin rashes and blemishes. The sweat produced cleansesthe pores and makes your skin glow.

3. Lovemaking can burn up those calories you piled on during that romantic dinner. Unless, of course, your mate is a cheapa** and you ate at McDonalds. You'll never burn all that sh!t off.

4. Sex is one of the safest sports you can take up. It stretches and tones up just about every muscle in the body. It's more enjoyable than swimming 20 laps, and you don't need special sneakers (unless you're into that sorta thing)

5. Sex is an instant cure for mild depression. It releases endorphins into the bloodstream, producing a sense of euphoria and leaving you with a feeling of well-being (until you wake up sober in the morning and realize that you slept with a Thai crackwhore).

6. The more sex you have, the more you will be offered. The sexually active body gives off greater quantities of chemicals called pheromones. These subtle sex perfumes drive the opposite sex crazy!

7. Sex is the safest tranquilizer in the world. IT IS 10 TIMES MORE
EFFECTIVE THAN VALIUM.

8. Kissing each day will keep the dentist away. Kissing encourages saliva to wash food from the teeth and lowers the level of the acid that causes decay, preventing plaque build-up. This is absolutely disgusting.

9. Sex actually relieves headaches. A lovemaking session can release the tension that restricts blood vessels in the brain.

10. A lot of lovemaking can unblock a stuffy nose. Sex is a natural
antihistamine. It can help combat asthma and hay fever.

More women would enjoy sex more if they communicated for one, the other is to stop worrying about the pimple on your butt and have a good time with it. Insecurity will kill an orgasm everytime. Don't assume your man will "figure it" out. Every woman is different and need different things to get them there. Seeing as all you ladies have to do is be there naked none of the pressure is on you to perform. But if you wanna wake up the neighbors for REAL this time, let him know what you need. A man that is "in tune" with his woman will turn her inside out everytime. Some guys develop a sense for what a woman wants just by how she reacts to him. Some guys would'nt get it on their own no matter how hard they tried. Is it their fault they don't know your needs? Maybe, maybe not. If it isn't happening but its not because of lack of trying, come out of your shell and show him. If he is an inconsiderate lover that is a different story. The bottom line is GET YOURS! Cuz I'll be gettin mine...;)

Is this a powwow computer site? Last time I looked virginity is something missing from NdNs and powwows. With the dogs wagging tails on anything with two legs and the two legs all to eager to take the dogs home why do you think NdN country is infested and overflowing with young teen mothers and HIV/AIDS and any other std. If you want a singer or a dancer expext to get more then what you see.

all races face these same problems within society........ and since the indigenous people make up a very small percent of the society, (as far as numbers) the problem is greater the greater the population of the race.

this particular thread is about health, not about powwows.

dude you need to chill. Why you so mad on all your posts? Some chick must have done a real number on you to be so mad. I know I get mine when I need to and it's not all the time but it's quality and I always use the pertection.

i believe sex only in a comitted relationship. For some that is marriage, some others that is a long term relationship.

I think it is better to wait...I wish I had, but then I wouldn't have had the children I have, and I love them very much. Of course, if I'd had a decent guy the first time out, I'd have had more children than i've got. I have 4 but wanted 7 or 8.

Among Cherokees, the law was that you could fool around all you wanted as long as you weren't married, but once married, you had to be faithful. Adultery was punishable by death. Divorce, however was easy-if a man, you took your clothes, tools, and weapons and left, If a woman, you put his stuff outside the house for 3 days, and he would be removed from your house by your male relatives if he didn't leave willingly.

Studies prove that the people having the best sex are married couples. Think about it- you are there for each other, are comfortable with each other, and have time to learn how to do it right. For women, a man's faithfulness is condusive to being in the mood more often. It makes me feel good knowing my husband keeps it in his pants until he gets home and that i don't have to worry about where he's been, what he's been doing, or i he's picked up a std somewhere(and from who). He also has the knowledge that what I give him is all for him and nobody else.

With all the std's, it's better to stay a virgin untill married, then be faithful to your spouse from then on. Condoms do NOT keep you from getting genital warts(HPV) because the virus can be in the skin around the genitals and not just on them; HPV is the leading cause of cervical, uterine, and ovarian cancers in women, and is worse the younger a woman is when she contracts it. In nearly all cases of reproductive system cancers resulting in radical hysterectomy in women under age 25, HPV is the culprit and was usually contracted by age 15. Since these cancers aren't easily detected in the early stages, sometimes they are not diagnosed until they have spread to other parts of the body and it is too late for surgery or chemotherapy, and the woman dies.

Chlamydia is another std that has a far worse effect on women, and is the leading cause of sterility among women. Because of how our bodies are made, quite often we don't know we've got something until it has become serious and is causing pain and/or tissue damage(inflamation, scarring, cysts).

HPV, HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis C, and several other STD's are permanent-once you contract them you're affected for life and will nearly always pass them along to each subsequent sex partner you have. They can prevent you from having children, cause congenital birth defects or fetal death, and even kill you.

We are animals, but Creator gave us the ability to think, reason, and choose how we will act; we don't just run on instinct. He created sex to be sacred and holy, as well as fun and pleasurable. Anyone who thinks the Bible makes sex out to be a bad thing needs to read The Song of Songs, written by King Solomon, which describes "french" kissing, undressing and caressing, and that afterglow among other things.

Making love was designed to be just that, the physical expression of the union already present in the mind, heart, and spirit. That kind of vulnerability between man and woman, husband and wife, is meant to deepen the emotional bonds between them. We are meant to find pleasure with our mate in a monogamous, preferably life-long relationship. There's no reason to get bored with that one person, either, if you are devoting time to building, strengthening, and deepening the marriage.

And there's the added security our children have from seeing their parents working at a good, solid marriage-they know mom and dad are going to be there together for them. Girls from homes where both parents are in a stable relationship are far less likely to have sex before age 18, drop out of school, do drugs or drink, or get in volved in bad relationships, less prone to depression or mental illness, and tend to be healthier and happier then girls with divorced or absent parents. Boys from stable homes with married parents are more likely to finish school, stay off drugs and booze, avoid criminal behavior and gangs, have a higher opinion of women and be far less likely to be abusive partners or dead-beat dads. They also tend to be ahppier, healthier, and live longer than boys whose parents are divorced or absent.

Children really do need their daddies around, and are better off if their parents are partners in their upbringing. If more of us grew up like that, maybe we'd have fewer problems with substance abuse, sexual abuse and domestic violence, suicide, infant mortality, and some of the other unhealthy conditions affecting us and causing us to have the lowest life expectancy of any group of people on this planet.

My first experience was when I was 16. We were both virgins and didnt know what the heck we were doing. I ended up getting pregnant. It scared me so much that I waited until a few after my daughter was born to even consider it again. I dont think I was mentally prepared for it. I dont know about the whole waiting for marriage thing. Geez there is so much to learn and experience and to wait for that perfect one is like cheating yourself out of--not only the sexual experience but emotional, physical well-being that comes with time. I think if a person feels mentally prepared then it should be fine. I definetly dont want my daughter doing it when she is 16 or 17. I will keep her busy with things that have to do with herself. Keep her active where she establishes a sense of well being. Also, I will talk to her. I have already started on certain things because the way kids talk in school today Its just important for her to know the facts first. Geez....she will be 16 in 4 yrs


Im pretty picky anyways so I feel like a virgin at this point.:( I hope my face doesnt start breaking out from lack of sex:Chatter I guess I will have to keep jumping on that treadmill to substitute that wonderful blush that regular sex does for ya. Funny--people always tell me my skin glows. ;) I can fake!

Wow I surprised at the response. Personally I think that like most young people we all start out all idealistic and full of ideas:Flash And then we end up all grown up and ready for action:Party I say to do what you are comfortable doing, if you want to have sex with someone you should think one thing only, am I going to regret this in 5 years? If you can answer no then go for it. In keeping with this thought pattern, when deciding whether to wait you should think only one thing, am I going to regret this in 5 years? I agree with the folks who say test drive the auto b4 you buy it, but with one stipulation. If you are going to test drive a car, don't do it unless you are willing to buy it if it runs good, and don't shop for more than one car at a time.:3: oh yeah and i'm gonna get a lot of **** for this I know, but I don't think that people under age 18 should be having sex. Too early, bodies not developed, not ready to face possible consequences of actions etc......
