“It started out with my upbringing in a
Catholic faith, but I chose to remain a virgin
until marriage because I want my future
husband to be my only sexual partner.”
“Just haven't found the right person. I'm not
too into hookups.”
“I'm in a committed relationship and we're
just not ready for sex.”
“I have too much work.”
“I've lied to my mom about having sex with my
boyfriend because she is very religious. If she
knew I used birth control to have sex and not
lecture about not following God's plan and that
I am inviting the devil into my life.”
“I once lied that I didn't have sex with a girl
sleeping in my bed because I found her
annoying. In reality, I was just freaked out that I
was in a one night stand situation and couldn't
get turned on.”
“My parents only like Jewish girls.”
