Like be required? Heck no.
Legally? I am morally against pre marital sex but if they are going to do it they should at least be safe and knowledgeable. I think around age 14 there should be an age appropriate but frank discussion about safe sex and work towards prevention of diseases and teen pregnancy instead of overall rebellion causing unneeded consequences

I alsoways find it strange that religion finds sex a moral thing.It's nature and has nothing to do with morals or religion.That's like saying what you eat is a moral.There is a reason why sex is pleasurable and why people can have sex with multiple people.Nature intended us to have mutliple lovers and prcreate as much a possible while enjoying the act itself.At one point marriage did not exist.

I'm agnostic, not religious in any way. But I do believe everything is connected. With that being said your logic is 2 dimensional and very atheistic in tone. How can you say what is and isn't nature? Pleasure is just as much an emotion as it is a feeling. Would you have sex with someone ugly who had a rude personality just because it felt good? Would you be more inclined to sleep with the woman of your dreams? Emotion and feelings come into play 100% of the time. Is that supposed to be nature? Why can't we hear trees scream when we cut them down?

Is that supposed to be nature?

Emotion are an evolutionary tool, so yes, emotions are part of nature of beings with higher developed central nervous system.

Why can't we hear trees scream when we cut them down?

Because they don't have lungs. Or a central nervous system. But it can be measured internal stress of some sort.

That wasn't a direct question. It was designed to challenge how others percieve reality with the point being that just because you can't hear or see something doesn't mean it isn't happening.  

I'll hope that you have a look at this.

Science is consistently discovering itself wrong. I don't actually think any theory we have is absolute.  It's a giant spiderweb of wrong ideas that hold some truth but not complete truth, otherwise I think we would have certain things figured out.  With the current state of humanity, the way we've adapted technology to ourselves is in my honest opinion the wrong path. I don't put all my faith in science, I don't put all my faith in chance, but rather there seems to be a medium between what man can find out, and what happens for a reason.  Therefore love, hate, jealousy, happiness, sadness... those can't simply be explained.  There's either an extra dimension or another layer to the matter that makes up everything that we cannot percieve and sex isn't -just- a tool that is to be exploited because it makes you feel good.  Again, if it were that simple then people wouldn't choose who they mate with. Marriage didn't used to be a thing but I garuntee that before that there was a man and a woman who saw in each other the kind of friendship that bonded them for life.  They had no obligation to be with each other, but they wanted to. The concept of marriage is almost entirely based around this idea now a days.
