== Disadvantages of abstinence ==
  −
  −
*Human beings are driven by three basic needs, to eat, to protect and maintain their living space, and to reproduce, with different partners. By remaining abstinent you cut out a third of your reasons for living, leaving a possible emptiness in your life.
  −
  −
*Rejection of natural impulses and needs can lead to severe emotional turmoil.
  −
  −
*Suppression of necessary desires can lead to feelings of anger regarding sexuality in general, leading to sexual assault and other related crimes.
  −
  −
*If a young person never experiences sex before the person they intend to do it with for the rest of their life, they are left open to being abused and taken advantage of through their naivety.
  −

*Encouraging abstinence can lead to a distinct fear of sex, particularly in young women, destroying their chance of enjoying sex, even with their lifelong partner.
  −
  −
*If you never meet someone you wish to remain with, you'll never engage in physical relations.

*Abstinence means you'll have an incredibly limited sphere of experience, lessening the amount of pleasure you can take from the act.

*Relationships carry emotional baggage regardless of a sexual relationship, meaning even if a person remains virgin until marriage, they will still have issues to deal with.
  −
  −
*All relationships will be put under a strain if one or both participants abstain from sex. It leads to a pressure to marry early, and builds resentment from both parties.
  −
  −
*With modern attitudes, sex is not considered something bad, and therefore won't lead to a "bad reputation" if a person chooses to indulge.
  −
  −
*With so many different methods of conception and sexual health protection available today, there is virtually no risk to sex, if a young person is properly educated.
