Is premarital sex immoral?

Morality is the determination of  whether human acts are good or evil.  This brings us to the big question, Is premarital sex immoral?  In 1 Corinthians 6:18 it reads " Run away from sexual sin! No other sin so clearly affects the body as this one does.  For sexual immorality is a sin against your own body."  Sex is advertised everywhere,  on commercials, tv shows, magazine articles, etc.  This special gift should be between you and your husband.  Many teenagers think that it's ok if they have sex and get pregnant because they will end up getting married. Most of the time, that's a lie.  They aren't ready to take on such responsibility yet.  Some advertisements don't show the affects of premarital sex either: a transmitted disease or being pregnant.  This can really harm a teenager's life.  I think it is really sad when people have to go through that because it hurts their reputation and high school career.  The best way we can help stop premarital sex is by showing them church teaching, and what the bible has to say. "The Catholic Church continues to teach that sexual love between a man and a woman is reserved for marriage."  I definately agree with the Catholic Church, premarital sex is immoral.
