This is an interesting topic, missed it before but I'm glad its up now.

While my family never really forced any philosophy about sex down on me, it was just an unspoken law that everyone, male and female, waited until marraige before having sex. Anything between the couple is encouraged behind closed doors is fine unless it's not mentioned to anyone else. To some extent, those ideals have influenced my views on relationships and sex, one being that I can not ever imagine myself having more then one partner. But a bdsm lifestyle would be okay as long as its monoganous and not breaking any of those virtueous 'laws'.
