2 reasons y teens r more accepting of losing their virginity before marriage: 1. Our culture, esp. the media, promotes sex. Add peer pressure and the result is that teens see and hear about sex all the time. They start to think most people are doing it and they must be uncool or abnormal if they’re still a virgin. 2. Fornication is increasingly accepted as more people view sex as more than just consummation of marriage and a way to make babies. #2 is fine as long as people are responsible about sex, but #1 increases irresponsibility. Possible solutions r getting the media to change & sex ed that promotes abstinence (not abstinence-only) and shows reality, which is that most teens aren’t doing it, there are many risks to sexual activity, and foreplay (esp. combined w/ drugs/alcohol) can easily escalate into unintended/unwanted intercourse.
