If it is a choice then it shouldn't be hammered out of you--I don't see any reason any parent (or any other authority figure) should be able to dictate to someone who they may or may not sleep with. [I do think a parent has a right and an obligation to give counsel when it comes to their children's choices of life partners but there is a limit to how far that should go. It certainly should not go so far as to attempt to forbid any particular liaison.]
