Sex after marriage?

Probably most wouldn't wait. Why should they? It's completely illogical to presumably wait years, make a life time commitment by marrying someone, and only then explore an important part of the relationship. Frankly the only reasons people do that kind of thing is A) religious nonsense or B) thinks it makes them better than everyone else.

Nobody is saying is has to be done within a few weeks, but as far as I'm concerned those who insist on waiting for marriage need to get their heads out their backside. Sex is natural - more natural than marriage as it happens.

Nowadays, most couples will have sex within weeks of knowing each other and this is a norm - I know that due to cultural and religious reasons even if I was in a relationship with a guy, I wouldn't have sex with him until we were married..
This just makes me think how many guys out there would wait on having sex until they were married and if they didn't have sex whilst being in the dating stages of a relationship, would they leave the girl?

Well that's not generalised at all. I never take this attitude to others whose opinions about sex differ from my own. Yes, I am waiting primarily for religious reasons, but I also know that it is what I would be most comfortable with in myself and make me most happy - I thought doing what makes you happy is good? I do agree that sex is more 'natural' than marriage but that does not make marriage a bad thing. A lot of things we have in society may not be 'natural' but are beneficial. I just think this was put a bit brashly, but I accept your difference in opinion.

Depends on how much the guy cares

Though you can just as easily reverse that and say that if the girl cared, she'd want to make the guy happy.

I'd have no problem waiting.

A life adhering to temptations doesn't seem like a particularly purposeful one i must say.

yes but since the Op seems to be a girl who wants to know if a guy will wait then I answered appropriately. She's not asking if she should have sex or not.

I just don't think that's a fair way of putting it. If you have different beliefs on sex maybe you aren't compatable with each other, but that doesn't mean you don't care. You don't have to bow to your partner's will on everything to show you care. In a healthy relationship you'd look a compromise when there's a conflict, not say "if you don't do want I want, you don't care!".
