Ya know, if I kid wants to wait, that’s cool. Let them wait. I have no problem with people waiting if that’s really their choice, as long as it wasn’t forced on them and they have really thought about it. I don’t think repressing sexual urges is a good thing in any sort of situation (besides one that would lead to rape, then you must repress!)
People have said the following on the situation:
“These kids become sex objects, thrust into the spotlight,” she continued. “And while I know they’re all trying to stand out, especially during the audition period, using your Christian beliefs and the fact that you’ve never kissed a girl is not going to bode well for you while trying out to be America’s next big sex object.
“It’s a national popularity contest based on talent and sex appeal,” Preston said. “There’s nothing sexy about a 19-year-old guy who’s never kissed a girl and wears a heart necklace his father is holding the key to.”
What? I thought it was a competition about talent. Silly me. (how did ruben get so far?)
“I respect women and don’t think of them as a sexual object, and I’m the freak?” Dickson said.
I think that every guy I’ve had sex with respects women and doesn’t think about them as objects. Just because you’re a 30 year old virgin doesn’t mean you respect women, it means you’re probably going to be REALLY awkward and bad the first time you have sex on your honeymoon… Why not practice and make the honeymoon sex unforgettable? And there’s also the risk of that sexual repression coming out in other places… disturbing and weird places. But that’s a whole other story.
I feel bad for the kid in one way because really, he’s just doing his thing and what he thinks is right. But on the other hand… have sex man. No no no, sorry - don’t have sex, that’s fine. Keep waiting - BUT KISS A GIRL!
