Fuck no!
I wouldn't either, but then again I'm 31. I think with these people normally both partners are supposedly virgins. Also keep in mind they normally marrying very young. I live in Utah much of the year and your standard Mormon marriage both the people are 18-20. So it's not like it's a 30 year old Evangelical man you are talking about here. Also here is a hint, most 18 year olds aren't that great in bed anyway. A few awkward encounters in high school are not going to make that much of a difference when it comes to sexual performance compared with these guys, so I don't really think the issue of pleasing their partners or bad sex is the issue here. It could be true that they just don't care either, considering this quote:
Quote: AR: Are there similar support groups for abstinent women in the church?
SD: Not that I found. The church, and the men that I interviewed, don’t believe that women would need a space to talk through these issues. They believe that men are highly sexual beings and they have "natural urges" that need to be controlled, but they don’t believe that women have that natural desire to be sexually active. Women are the providers of sexual activity for their husbands.
I think that main issue is the level of control that these people surrender over to their church. Their whole lives are subject to control, including sex which should be nobodies business but your own. Also while these people are the fringe in the United States (and people who wait until marriage are) this is totally normal in the entire Muslim world.
