I guess this doesn't count in our contest threads


No takers for contest that requires abstinence

The prize includes $10,000, free flowers, invitations and wedding treats 

ATLANTA - A contest that would pay $10,000 to an engaged couple, as long as they abstain from premarital sex, hasn't gotten any takers. The deadline for the Marriage for a Lifetime contest is Oct. 31. The prize includes free flowers, invitations and other wedding treats.


So far, organizer Phillippia Faust hasn't gotten any entries.

She said, "In our society it's going to be hard to find" a couple that hasn't had premarital sex.

Faust has orchestrated mock weddings and other pro-marriage activities through her Marriage Appreciation Training Uplifting Relationship Education program, a nonprofit that isn't church-affiliated. The program is implemented through Rockdale Medical Center.

Aw man, too bad they didn't do that 3 years ago. I have a friend who managed to wait until her wedding. I was impressed.

I don't know all the details. I just saw the headline and thought about all our contests around here. I wonder if it were no sex at all or if it were no sex with the person to whom you are engaged.

I'm guessing no sex at all. But how would they know?

Somehow I think there would be a lot of entries for that contest. And just about all of them would be by men.

surely there must be some 80-something couple in love out there, where a contest like this would be easier than taking candy from a baby....

JD - Just don't get me in trouble with your girlfriend. I don't want her coming over to try and kick my butt.
