Is it healthy to remain a virgin?

Published by

I am 20 years old and I have never had sex before because of the fear of unwanted pregnancy and infections as well as the training of my mother and secondarymistress. However, recently while conversing with a friend, she said keeping my virginity at my age will make me sick and it is better I have sex for good health. Please help me as I am confused.

Your mother and secondary school mistress are right while your friend is very wrong. As you rightly stated, your virginity protects you from the scourge of unwanted pregnancy and infections. You should therefore do all you can to keep it until you are ready for marriage.
