"Practice Safe Sex"

"Practice Safe Sex"

The best thing to wear for safe sex is wedding ring!

One day, a conversation between a teenager and his grandfather was overheard. The young man said, " Gee, Grandpa, your generation didn't have all these social diseases. You did not have Aids during your time. What did you wear to have safe sex?"

The wise old gentleman replied, " A wedding ring."

Now,does that make sense or what?

Sex today is presented as a fulfillment of the animal lust inside every man and hardly ever presented as a sacred bond of union inside the institution of marriage.

You don't even need to go to church or attend a service to hear your priest or pastor say this. Just watch the movies and all those television shows and you will see that sex has been so degraded, and the young people of today are even more confused. Now, more than ever, we have to remind them that sex is God's invention. It is to be beautiful thing as long as it kept within the bounds of marriage. It enhances the relationship of husband and wife and it is within God's design for all to follow.

Many business people I know are very good in their product presentations and are good communicators, yet when it comes to talking about sex with their kids, they stutter, they stammer and worse, they stop or give up.

A fundamental principle in good management says that we are to give importance to proper communications and never is the moment more important than this. To communicate to our kids God's design for sex and marriage.

I knew a guy couple of years ago. He was very intelligent. He knew a lot about computers long before I ever knew how to punch the keyboard. He was good looking, articulate and has a photographic memory. One look at him and you know he had all it takes to succeed in life.

He got married. And then the truth came out. He couldn't remain faithful to his wife. He would go on flings with various women and then end their relationship bitterly. Never satisfied, he continued having sex with one woman after another. I later discovered the reason why.

As a kid, he was taught sex in a very wrong way. His family owned a massage parlor and almost every night, the father would bring him and have him watch him "do it" with different women. This was the father idea of "sex education." When he reached fifteen, the father gave him first woman. He never recovered after that. To him, sex was nothing but a cheap thrill. He could never live a normal life. He would be successful in his career for a time, and then he would mess up his life by having affairs with the girls he was working with. You know what? The man was a practical handicap. And I certainly know the reason why.

Sex is beautiful. It is God's design and invention. Sex is not something you engage in everytime you attend a convention somewhere. Sex is not messing up with the people you work with whether in the office or in the field. Sex is not a purchase order given to one of those poor young girls making a living along Quezon avenue at night. Sex is not a peep show you watch through the convinience of the internet or pay TV.

Sex is to be an expression of great intimacy with the one God has given you inside the bounds of marriage. Times are difficult as it is. You don't need another messed up relationship to complicate life. And watch your kids, too. You don't want to have another sexual handicap walking the streets of our city, either now, or in the immediate future.
