How common is abstinence inside of marriage?

Asked by Hobosnake (796points) September 23rd, 2009

Do you, or does someone you know, practice abstinence within marriage? It’s a new idea to me and I’m wondering how common (or how rare) it really is.

The idea being that one does not feel ready for parenthood yet does not believe in sex without childbirth as a possible end, yet, at the same time, wants marriage.
