Most Indian men want virgin brides

Nov 6, 8:17 AM (ET)

NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Nearly two-thirds of young Indian men expect the woman they marry to be a virgin, but nearly half have had sex with prostitutes, according to a poll.

The survey of more than 2,500 men aged between 16 and 25 conducted by India Today magazine across 11 cities found that 49 percent claimed to have had sex with a sex worker while 37 percent said they had had a homosexual experience.

But 63 percent of young men in conservative India said they expected the women they married to be a virgin.

The average age of their first sexual encounter appears to be falling -- to 18 years from 23 in a similar survey two years ago, but condom use is on the rise, the report said. More than half of the men surveyed said they always used a condom.

Fourteen percent of those surveyed said they had had sex with a member of their own family.

OK HAVING SEX AT A YOUNG AGE. I HAVE HEARD OF THAT. BUT HAVING SEX WITH YOUR OWN FAMILY MEMBER. EWWWWW!!

Should gays be allowed to get married. Heck why not?? You know, alcohol was made legal and you have drunks and alcoholics in our midsts all the time. There are gays and lesbians everywhere. If they want to get married why not? If an alcoholic wants a drink, give him directions to the bar. Who are we to judge the good from the bad, the evil from the righteous? I am a christian but I dont believe in controlling peoples lives. The catholic church BELIEVES that Jesus never married. I believe differently. I think he did get married.

My questions to the church would be....

1. Jesus was a man right? Yes.
2. He was born of flesh and blood? correct.
3. He was able to be tempted by satan? That is correct.

Then if he never married, why did he have 12 men following him everywhere??!!
