Face reality. The majority of marriages which fail have sex somewhere in the reason why they failed - whether it's just bad sex, or not happening enough, or they now want to have it with someone else. Knowing each other sexually is a key step in identifying whether that's the person you want to marry.

Naturally there are many other more important reasons to marry someone. But it's naive to not think sex is important, too.

Pregnancy and disease are potential complications and it's up to the adults in this world to face those realities and deal with them responsibly if they happen.

Sexual problems like premature ejaculation, inability to get an erection, or even an allergy to your partner’s semen are all possibilities, wouldn’t you rather deal with those issues before you’re married? This way you know if your future is even going to address them.

Let’s face it, sex plays a big role in marriage. Just like you should discuss children, religion, and where you both want to live before tying the knot, sex is too big a part of a relationship to leave to chance.

Would you buy a pair of shoes without trying them on?? You would only have to live with them for a matter of months!

I've been married twice, for a total of 54 years. I knew BOTH of them .... inside and out, you might say, and never went through a divorce or was miserable within a marriage. Yes. It is good to know the woman as well as possible before you marry her.

Side: Yes

As often as possible and with as many partners that you can sweet talk into believing that marriage is just around the corner. After having sex the danger signals to watch out for are all the stupid questions, such as what's your name?, where do you live. When that stars it's time for a quick getaway, Zoooooom.

Yes (so you know that both of you are serious). But if sex is the reason you're marrying a girl or a deal breaker, you have issues. It shouldn't matter.

So long as you know what it is you are going into, what are the risks of it, and if you know you plan on spending your life with someone or it starts to become a serious relationship. I'm typically not for it, but I do believe that people should have the right to choose if you are at a mature age to know if it is what you want to do.

So tell me how sexual relationships before marriage are good for all the fatherless children out there. We have record numbers of broken homes.

Did you know that people who live together before marriage have much higher rates of divorce? That goes totally against your argument.

I've heard this same rhetoric from people on the Left for decades. It's a lie!

The reason it does not work is because people who live together without marriage lack the moral values that keep marriages together. They lack the commitment to their partner or children when there is no marriage.

They have no moral values that would keep them in the relationship. Self love is paramount to today's anything goes culture.

They have been taught by the Left if you are not happy in your marriage, JUST WALK OUT! Screw the kids, screw your partner's well being. It's all about YOU!

Having children while married is by no means insurance that the child won't be fatherless in the future, either through divorce or just bad parenting. Same if the mother just up and leaves.

Broken homes aren't just delegated to the unmarried, there are plenty of single parents who are raising children well and doing the best they can and by no means should they be classified as a broken home.

Honestly I think they should live together before marriage, that's really the best way a person can get a feel for the person they will be spending their lives with. Moral values? Again, marriage isn't going to guarantee that either. Plenty of spouses cheat on each other, plenty divorce, plenty vacate the commitment. If you aren't happy in your marriage you should try to fix it but if it is irreparable then leave. Staying in a loveless marriage often brings about bitterness and hatred and many times that's directed at the child as well.
