not all of us...

I respectivly disagree with only part of your argument. The comment about girlfriends makes it seem like any relationship before marriage is only about sex. this is not the case. there are many chaste people dating in western countries (admittadly less than nonchaste, but my point is still well made) and even nonchaste ones often include sex as an aspect, not the whole purpose of such relationships. Such relationships merely follow the western belief that love must develop overtime and be proven, tested if you will, to prove its truth. Sex is merely a side effect of that process.
