People choose to be abstinence to:

enjoy their partner’s company without having to deal with a sexual relationship

follow their doctor’s advice during or after a sickness, infection, or medical procedure

follow their personal, moral, or religious beliefs and values

focus on school, their job, or hobbies

wait to find the right partner

wait until they feel ready for a sexual relationship

Abstinence and the following of Christ

Getting married proves how worthy your partner is by waiting until having sex

By getting married it shows how you and your partner are committed to each other and will always love one another through thick and thin

God believes you can give yourself to someone in a sexual way when you devote your love to your significant other by getting married

God expects us to stay pure until you are married

Abstinence: the practice of refraining from having sex

prevents STI's (herpes, AIDS, clamydia...etc)

prevents pregnancy (there is no opportunity for sperm to fertilize the egg)

Focus on other things you are passionate about

No responsibilities of going through the process of having a baby (pregnancy and the aftermath)

No STI's

Less Drama

Reduces stress levels
