The answer to this question is easy. The big deal is…SEX. However, the more difficult question is how do you align your thoughts, feelings and choices when they disagree about sex? Humans are privileged to have sex for pleasure any time we want!  BUT that doesn’t mean it’s beneficial to have sex any time you want.  In fact, having sex can have consequences that seriously affect your health, your relationships, and your future.

So what? You may not get pregnant. You may not get a sexually transmitted infection.

These are serious physical consequences, but we’re not just physical people. We are made up of five dimensions: physical, mental, emotional, social, and ethical.

You will experience effects, positive or negative, in every part of your whole person with any decision you make.

The decisions you make with sex will affect your future. Ten years from now, how will you feel about the choices you’re making today?  Are there consequences that could affect your education? A possible career? A future marriage? The ability to have your own family?

You get to make your own choices, you can choose to have sex, but you won’t get to choose the consequences.
