More and more people say that virginity are not considered important as long you're both inloved, but here in the Philippines, it does, how about in you own opinion?

People mske it as an excuse to have an intimate relationship with their partners when they are in love. I think it is very wrong. If I were a man, I would never marry a girl who's no longer a virgin. I just think that sometimes there are girls that could be so stupid they would just allow things like this to happen in their lives. My mom always told me, your virginity is the best thing you can give your husband when you get married. I am going to say iot loud and proud that I gave my husband the best thing when we got married.

That's impressive, Im so amazed, that's a wonderful thing I've read today, are you a Filipina, because most of that thing regarding conservative things comes from the Philippines, no offense for Filipino there, As Im saying, well its a crown on every man's head, his wife's virginity, not because its importance but its because God gifted us which is sacred.

I don't really think that virginity is important in marriage. Both my wife and I were both sexually experienced by the time we met. It has never been an issue for me, although some cultures and religions place a high value on it for some reason or another.

This is actually a pretty interesting view, but I have to ask though...it is equally important for the man to be a virgin at marriage also? Perhaps to symbolize the same cleanliness in both the physical and the spiritual realm?

For me virginity are important because it symbolizes the cleanliness on part of a woman, well its true that culture affect us but me as a man, I give more importance to a woman who is clean in physical ans also spiritual.

Virginity is not a prerequisite to get married. What's important is that if you tie the knot you should be definitely sure that the one you are going to marry is the one you really love and want to spend the rest of your days, a bow that you need to uphold no matter what as witnessed by God in holy matrimony.

Maybe we can say that due to liberated world virginity is not a requirement, as a man, before getting into marriage, must carefully choose my partner because marriage is for a lifetime, virginity is a crown for every man's head.

For me, yes. It should be offered only to the man you're want to grow old with. It's so precious that you can't just give it away to anyone. Making love should only be done by married couples. I maybe somewhat conservative when it comes to virginity, but, it's my opinion.

Hooooaaa, I think you're the only one who respond and make virginity more precious than any other, well for me its a crown on every man's head, a man's pride and a fortune, virginity make so important before getting married because its a symbol of being clean, that's why the woman wear white on her wedding.

I am also a Pinay, it's just so sad that teens engage to some intimate activities at a very young age, without really understanding the risks of doing it. As a high school teacher no matter how well we try monitor our students, they have a lot of way of doing it.

That's true, lack of parenting and ignorance are the main causes as per survey results, but more gaining percent are turn to ignorance, more young people are getting committed on it because they considered it as an age of discovery, they done it for fun and the result came in with full of challenging trauma.
