MARRIAGE AND SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE!

After evaluating all the facts of the belief that "sex before marriage sinful, immoral and socially unacceptable, I have fundamentally reached my conclusion. This conclusion is that its is not sinful and socially immoral that one has sex before marriage. I have reached this conclusion based on various arguments that i have evaluated. For example the defenition of marriage in which binds two individuals, predominantely male and female together.

definition 1) Marriage is a relationship and bond, most commonly between a man and a woman, that plays a key role in the definition of many families

defenition 2) Historically, a relationship between a male, a female and their families whose primary purpose is to raise offspring. Today many people use the word to describe a committed, loving relationship with or without children.
Both these defentions fundamentally reinforce that marriage is the act of both a male and female making a committment to each other that socially ties them as indiciduals living in the society. Therefore in supporting my thesis it proves that marriage can be made without a ceremony or legal documents that are binding on the community. for example one can make a committment by loving theie partner and vice versa. Therefore it is moral and socially acceptable that one takes part in sexual intercoase without the legal and proper marriage ceremony taking place. It is moral and okay in my eyes if both individuals love each other, are committed and thus have made a committment to one another. Therefore I believe sex before " marrriage" is socially and religiously acceptable in the eyes of the society in which we are a fundamental part of and religiously in the eyes of God.

Today I went to Supre ( for those of you who dont know thats a young girls clothes shop) and I dragged my Dad along with me. Poor Dad, lol. Anyway after going to Supre it occured to me that the shop only has clothes for people who are size 8 and under. Girls who are that size are rediculeously skinny and generally dont have much character to their bodied other then a skinny pole. Therefore all the girls who are my age tend to go to Supre as it is the done thing and sells fashionable clothes for my age group. This is a negative problem, that is that all the clothes seem to be for very skinny people with no fat what so ever. I say this because girls my age want to go there and wear the clothes because it is trendy however none of the clothes look good on normal shape girls. Therefore they go to Supre thinking that they are fat because none of the clothes there suit their body shapes. This has a very bad influence on young girls and I think that shops like these are the cause of fundamental, globalized issues that are very apparent in society today; for example Annorexia, depression, Bullemia etc. These shops really need to face facts and stop making clothes that are only suitable for really, unnaturally skinny people like supermodels. If these places faced facts and took some positive changes it would benefit the entire society and might even prevent such problems as anorexia and Bullemia that is very apparent in society, today.

This is my baby sis!

Sometimes people say hurtful things to each other, things they dont mean. Sometimes people hold grudges, hatred and disgust for one another. This is all part of the experience of life and its very normal for individuals to feel this way once in a while. However sometimes you dont realise how special life is and take it for granted. Its only when something happens that it hits you! Be made at your friend for doing something wrong, but dont hold a grudge; life is WAY to short to do that. You need to be open minded in this life and live life like theres no tomorrow, like everyday is a precious gift. This is a fundamental message to all you out there who take life for granted, DONT. Because its only when something happens that it will hit you and you will regret it. Be grateful for every single day that you have on this earth, do controversial things, like climbing Mount Everist or Bunji jumping, whatever; just make every single day count!

friends and family should never be taken for granted and you should always be appreciated!
