Abstract


Premarital sex refers to any sexual activity that single people engage in without the intending of marriage. This subject is not new, and in some ways it no longer causes as much anxiety or attention as it formerly did. This is due to the fact that it is increasingly becoming a frequent problem, and young people are engaging in it with little to no awareness of the repercussions it will have on them now and in the future. This essay presents the origins and effects of extramarital sex. According to the report, undergraduates should be informed about the unintended consequences of having sex before marriage, and parents, schools, and the surrounding community should all make this possible. Additionally, counsellors are expected to participate in ongoing outreach initiatives in both urban and rural regions.
