-Sex somehow makes the natural man feel like a man, which isn’t necessary.
-Getting into a relationship based on sexual energy alone will not last

 -It was also sex that resulted to one of the deadliest diseases we have-HIV/AIDS.
-Sex management needs to be taught because if you cannot manage your sex life, you still have a long way to go.

-Tiger Woods almost lost his career because of a non-mastery of his sex life, he was the richest sports man before the scandal but fell to about the fourth on the list but thank God he is back. Nevertheless,
-Many more people who have had their destiny destroyed because of this three letter word-SEX.
-I’m also very sure that you know at least two people that would have had better lives if not for premarital or extramarital sex.
-If there is no other reason to stay sexually pure, do it because of your destiny; because your destiny is greater than your present, your destiny is bigger than you.

-“Just a little kiss, a little touch, a little holding of hands to hug so shall sex come unto you like a bandit and promiscuity as an armed man”.
-How can a rule of a relationship state that ‘we can do every other thing except sex’? If you don’t want to  play why do the fore-play.
-Friendship is a strong and desirable quality for any relationship. So would you sleep with a friend you're not married to?
 -Advice to MEN: Do not follow the direction of your erection.
-The journey of a thousand miles begins with a step, therefore the journey of sex, does not begin with sex, it begins with a kiss, a peck, a hug.

Recommendation and Conclusion
NGOZI Ijimakinwa‏ @Ngoziestherkalu, Producer, Divas Dynasty  added that Media is a strong force in misleading young people.
Youths need to ask themselves these vital questions:
-How rich is their knowledge on relationship and where did they learn it from?
-When you are in relationship where and what are those things do you engage yourself in?
 Conquering tactics to young people who have lost their dignity along the line?
*Don’t get intimidated any longer. Though we are in a generation that discriminates against those that are not as sexually as majority are.
*Purpose gives life a meaning, Focus and direction. When a youth understands this, Youthful exuberance is taken care of.
*Information is key! It’s quite obvious youths are lacking in that respect.  Stone Origin is providing them with this platform. Adequate insight in teaching you how best to live your life.
*It is not too late to change if you truly want to change. For 1 Corinthians 6:18 says, “Flee from Sexual immorality.”
*Acceptance is the first step. Once you accept then you will be eager to learn.
*When you are in relationship where and what are those things do you engage yourself in
* Youths need to understand their identity before the stage of exploration which is always at the adolescent stage.
