It was yesterday morning when I drafted this post before I started my day. The weather was fine as well as my mood. While eating my breakfast, I was reading articles here in readcash and I came across this post about What should come first, marriage or sex?

A few comments on this post showed different REACTIONs. And I, on the other hand, disagreed with the writer's opinion. Yet, I respect her opinion because we all have different perceptions of the TOPIC. We can view stories from different angles and give other ideas based on our perceptions.

Sex Over Marriage

MARRIAGE for me will always be sacred, uniting only two people seriously in love, and a beginning of a long-term commitment. It's how a family starts, not just a play that can be abandoned any time the spouses get bored or tired.

But nowadays, many are just playing around, experimenting with things, and testing people. It seems easy for some to dive into the fire and get out of it unharmed. They would never think of the consequences. For some, it is a pleasure to play with the fire. While for some, it would test whether two people could stand the heat longer and could, deal with the aftermath and stay forever.

Only a few couples nowadays get married wholesomely without being drowned in sexual desires before tying the knot. A lot of young people nowadays are just taking s*x for fun. That is mainly why many women end up as single mothers with fears of getting in love again due to unpleasant past relationships.

Cases of premarital s*x are increasing every year. Some even want to live with their partners without tying the knot because they are afraid of long commitments and responsibilities. Some are afraid of separation and divorce. Some women don't want to bear the surname of their partners forever, who might just abandon them in the end. So they prefer to be in a relationship but unmarried. While some just prefer "friends with benefits." Anyone who watched the movie would undoubtedly know my point here.

Of course, the abovementioned thoughts are true, and anyone who could relate to them or in the situation will agree. Again, we all have different opinions and thoughts about the matter.


Live in and sex before marriage. 

At some point, I agreed with what the writer said. We can only know someone's true colors and intentions if we share the same roof and experience struggles together. However, I disagree with s*x before marriage and living together to check the s*xual satisfaction with the other one. 

It is as if they will live under the same roof and play with the fire. If the other one is satisfied with the heat, he/she will stick with the fire and live in the house longer. If not, he/she will abandon the house and find another man who could meet his/her satisfaction.

Is that relationship all about? S*x? Is that the only way to test the love and loyalty of someone to you? 

It is unavoidable not to be involved with s*x when you are under the same roof and lying on the same bed. Both couldn't just do rosary the whole night without being aroused when both bare skins are rubbed together. That is absurd. Temptation, lust, and desire will arise. And the fire will be lit up.

Can real love be developed if you share the same roof?

Maybe, in some cases. But only a few survive in this kind of setup.

But what if you figuratively fall into a big fire and it would cause great damage to you? Will you be able to bear the wounds and consequences?


We all are adults here. So don't 
be disgusted or feel ignorant 
about the topic. 

But ladies, think about this.

Let's say you guys will do food testing. Men, of course, like eating their favorite desserts. But they'll get fed up with it if they eat the same dessert again and again. They will find another kind of dessert again until they get the satisfaction they want. Not just men. Some women are doing this too.

Who's virginity and dignity will be removed after s*x? And what if the man abandons you because he isn't satisfied? Who'll bear great damage if a small life is accidentally conceived after playing the fire? The man? Definitely the woman!


It seems easy for some to have s*x with others, then later would shed tears and regret everything they have done. It always happens in the end anyway. But do you know who'll be greatly affected after? It's not just you, but the baby that has been conceived.

For some, it's a blessing and they could eventually learn the lessons from their experience. But others would take it as a burden, and eventually abandon the innocent child. For what reason? They are not prepared to be a mother yet. Screw that reason. They weren't ignorant about the consequences when they dived into the fire. They are just weak and afraid to face responsibilities.

I know there are a lot here who've been involved in premarital s*x. But I don't despise those who prefer this kind of setup, and I commend those who face the consequences despite being abandoned by their partner, and those who ended up in marriage.

If there's one thing I want to point out here:

"If others can't respect you, can you at least, respect yourself?" Especially ladies out there. And to students, please pursue your dreams first.

Don't be in a rush to play the fire. Pursue your dreams and be settled well first before you get involved in s*x. Many dreams have vanished because they become young mothers. They lost their freedom at an early age.

If you are responsible enough to face the consequences, then that's not a problem. But if you are still young, especially those still studying, don't let your dreams be ruined by your absurd desires and careless decisions.

My younger sister is one of them. I had a lot of dreams and plans for her. But it was eventually gone when she made a mistake. Although she is being responsible for the mess she did, I can't deny the fact that I felt sad about the life she choose. And I can somehow feel that she regretted it. She could have done more and achieved more.

Anyway, my niece is adorable, so she has been forgiven. Instead of remembering her mistakes, I rather do MARKETING and buy something that could satisfy my appetite, or play the PIANO at home and make a random piece that could alleviate my stress.


This is probably the first time I tackled a such topic. Who's to blame? The random word generator. The article above was just dragged here, lol. Now scroll up and find the given nouns.😅

Something's not right here: "My younger sister is one of them" "Anyway, my niece is adorable, so she has been forgiven" I am not a suspicious person but i somehow have bad feeling about this. Sorry

I'm a product of premarital sex but I'm glad that my parents aren't included to those na nagpakasal tapos naghiwalay din eventually.

But I won't ever agree to normalize that "live in & sex before marriage." For me, ideal lang s'ya for fictional stories like sa Wattpad pero di sa real life. Well, not at all times & not to every people. Kaya namang i-prevent yan basta willing 'yung both parties ey. Kawawa lang 'yung magiging anak kapag nangyari 'to ~ iba pa naman isip ng karamihan sa atin nowadays ay. Too aggressive & impulsive sa buhay.

I wanna get married and have my own child pero not now. I'm still too young for that, hihi. Career & goals muna before these stuffs ~ ✨

There once was a time when sex was the exclusive preserve for married folks and rightly so, if I may add. It used to be considered sacred but now sadly everyone is doing it even those who aren't prepared to live with the responsibilities or consequences that follow.

Ughh!! Frankly speaking you are true about boys. After tasting someone maximum try to leave the girl. But if the relationship last long enough to get close, then there is some exception. But I don't prefer S*x before marriage 🤞

I respect marriage but I don't want to get married. It's not just my thing. As for sex, sabi mo nga we are old enough na so if gagawin man yon sure na sure and alam na alam naman na ang consequences. Yin ang pinili ko, I decided on it so i'll take responsibility on my own decision. As for the young ones, timbangin muna ang mga bagay bagay. Alamin amg kapalit if you commit into it. Sabi nga, ang kasal ay hindi kanin na kapag sinubo at napaso ay iluluwa. Something like that.

Is that relationship all about? S*x? Is that the only way to test the love and loyalty of someone to you?

This is the right question. Ask yourself this when you want to be in a relationship. Sex is not the end all and be all.

Para na ako Ate nagbasa ng isang articles don sa mga comments. For me, depende na lang Ate sa paniniwala ng tao. Medyo conservative kasi ang Pinas dahil na rin sa mga religious beliefs natin. Okay lang sa akin kung sex over marriage (wala akong balak gawin yon kasi gusto kong mabuhay maging single lang forever) as long na kaya mong panindigan yung consequences. Pero kung yun lang ang habol mo sa isang relationship, for sure, hindi kayo tatagal hahha

Actions have consequences, and if one wants to indulge in premarital sex, they should be my guest, as long as they will be ready for the consequences of their actions (if any). It's the same way eating is good, but eating the wrong things can affect one's health. I just feel that of men were more responsible and take responsibility for their actions (getting a girl pregnant out of wedlock), then things may just be better for the women who find themselves in these situations. As for marriages, there are many factors involved in an unsuccessful marriages.

I'm also not in favor of premarital sx because mostly boy's leave after having sx snd than girl become pregnant and suffer all alone. I think if they really love than doesn't ask for sx they ask you for set your carrier or for marriage and than having sx but in our new generation it's totally opposite and it's bitter Reality of society

Parang nasaktan ako dun sa part ng little sister mo po, kasi I imagine my older sister feels the same way as you. Breadwinner sya and of course ako as a bunso, spoiled, by my older sister, like sobra. And until now na may little boy na ako, spoiled pa rin kami ng older sister ko.

Well to be honest hindi din ako pabor sa sex before marriage or living in together without marriage, but sad to say I am living with my partner without marriage.

Marriage is also sacred for me, and honestly my partner is my first and probably my last as well because I do respect myself. However I can also say's that living together in one roof makes us know each other even more, specially that we only knew each other virtually since we started dating.

Ohh wow so much controversial happening in the post haha. Yeah somehow in your side I agreed with that, as Filipinos conservative style is somehow a organic flow of being Maria Clara, and I actually praise you with that Ms. Jane. In my perspective I am more on the modern style, well if I will marry a woman and thought she wasn't virgin anymore, it doesn't affects me.

Sometimes the thinking "s*x or marriage which comes first" could be discrimination to some, others doesn't admit this kind actually. For some people had been forced.

I am also on conservation style but also seeking honest marriage. Not the intercourse or anything, but the bond will flows the marriage. Uwu

I think you shouldn't censor sex... it's not a bad word! Sex can lead to great marriages or break marriages. How good a relationship depends on many factors. A couple doesn't to be in a marriage to be happy and sex shouldn't be a criteria of success

You can't expect people to have the same mindset and preference with you.. so yeah, some people make bad decisions because they can't stand their wrong decisions. And not all people who do premarital sex doesn't respect each other.. for some cases it may be but not for all. Because in the Bible I haven't read even on Genesis that Adam and Eve did marriage ceremony.. as long as a person does not do sex with multiple people that's the start of their union as husband and wife, the ceremony is just an acknowledgement and formality base on religious and cultural beliefs.

I have stated different factors up there.. And yes of course, as I mentioned, we all have different perceptions, and that includes preferences..and again, as I said.. They just need to be ready for the life they chose.

But preferably for the young ones (esp students), they should think about their future first before going into this part of life.

And again, I don't despise those who chose that kind of life.. For as long as they are responsible enough for their actions...

One is long-lasting and the other short-lived, and although they seem to be related, I think they are different and independent issues. Marriage is a sacred institution, and the other is a world of pleasure that serves the ambitions of individuals. One is fire and the other is gunpowder, it is a difficult subject and there will be different opinions, but I am sure that what people say and what they do will contradict each other. At least about sex.
