*raises hand* Dude, I'm a teen. What I got from this message "Jessica Simpson is pretty stupid about a lot of things, but at least she's smart about not having sex before marriage. I'm glad she loves her husband." Sure, I know that sex is probably great, but it's even greater if you abstain from it until you're married. That's what I got from what Jess was saying. I also got "Man, her mom is also pretty stupid to broadcast telephone calls from her daughter on her honeymoon to the world."

I don't have anything to add, but I wanted to highlight someone who "got the message. Kashdi, please PM me and remind me to Rep you when my 24 hour limitation is up. :)

Muzik, you rock dude... literally.

/me feels very ganged up on

in my house the talk of sex it out... you get to here about it once and thats when you learn what it is other than that its not spoken of...so it bugs me that i cnat tlak to ppl about it.... my friends and i talk about the importance of waiting and holding out to marriage but when they are at my house they know not to even joke on it its a crim basically i ate it too cause i think teens shoud hear about it reality is that it needs to be a subject i guess.. ok my point of veiw has changed...i understand what you all are saying and agree with it.... jus t some part of me thinks it could be misused thats all

I'm sorry HomeChicklet. My post was harsh. No one is ganging up on you. At your age, the way you think isn't your fault. It's what you've been taught and you're trying to figure it out for yourself.

If someone says publicly that sex is enjoyable that doesn't mean that they are condoning premarital sex. If someone thinks it does, they are missing the point of the statement.

I'm sorry that I offended you. :hug:

Your sex life should be personal,(you shouldn't even have one yet :p ) but the subject of sex isn't "dirty".

Hang in there, you'll be ok.

I am posting this in this area becaue i would like to know hat you ppl thinks it protrays to teens... its a quote found on MSN celebs area and its about jessica simpson...

"In Vanity Fair, Tina reminisces about the call she received from Jess a few days into her Fijian honeymoon: "Mom, I'm having so much fun, I'm so in love, and sex is so amazing."

what does tha tell us??? does it stop anything... if you ask me it is promoting tons of stuff
I think it's saying that a woman can be happily married. And that enjoying sex should come with a happy marriage. And a daughter should be comfortable with her own mother to talk about anything she wants to.

I don't see what you're trying to get as a response with this thread...I don't see how it says anything to teenagers. Jessica Simpson isn't a teenager. Now if you were referring to her younger sister Ashley Simpson...I could sort of understand where you were coming from. But I'm sorry...I just don't get why you think this pertains to you.

I think teens already know that sex is great and enjoyable even if they have never had it, what we should be telling them is that sex is beyond great and enjoyable when you are in a committed and loving relationship with one other person. And that's kind of what this Jessica Simpson quote is saying. She's promoting waiting for amazing sex with your spouse. She enjoys being married and having sex for the first time on her honeymoon with her husband who she loves. I do think it's kind of weird that she told her mom that and then her mom told a magazine.
i believe it's called "publicity".

i'm not a fan of her singing so i wouldn't care less what "message" she's sending, but........ come on....... she's married and she likes sex....... i don't see anything wrong with that.

unless there's a hidden commandment i missed that proclaims "get married, all sex is bad, die barren."

Marriage is pointless.

No, seriously, if I'm deeply in love with a girl and want to spend the rest of my life with her, why do I need a ceremony and a piece of paper to tell her this.
It's seemed silly to me ever since I was a kid.

As for the issue of Pre-martial sex, since I believe in love existing without marriage I think my views are clear.

(Hell if you had sex just cause some celebrity said she had good sex with her hubby, your kind of dumb.)

Married woman, enjoying great sex with her husband. It's Biblical, and I think more Christians should stand up and say hey, sex IS good. Too many Christian women especially are ashamed of their sexuality even in marriage and don't embrace it, and I think it's great that some people are testifying to how good things can be.

it promotes nothing. the only problem is it mentions sex, which is too dirty to ever be brought up.
