I have wanted to ask this for some time. We have all been taught that sex before marriage is wrong. Some have even taken to the extreme of not even kissing before marriage (which I believe is extremely unhealthy and weird). Not saying that some will claim it worked well for them.
But the question is: While I believe one should wait for marriage to have sex, what level of intimacy do you think is acceptable? What if one partner has a physical anomaly that would make sex difficult if not impossible? What if one partner had a physical characteristic that could just not be overlooked/dealt with by the other?
I suspect I know what the answer(s) are going to be. The one that I do not find acceptable is that "well, if they love one another as they should, than physical characteristics shouldn't matter". Personally, I don't buy that for a second. That kind of love only presents itself and grows after many years of marriage.
Fire away.
