These are Scientific Facts

~~ One-third of engaged couples break up
~~ 55% of males, when asked, prefer to marry a virgin
~~ 63% of the most intelligent people prefer to marry virgins
~~ Most marriages that end in divorce do so within 2 years

Then, 

~~ Sex before marriage becomes a bad habit, hard to break after marriage ~~ 89% of parents in the 1990’s were opposed to their teens being sexually active…
