How do y'all feel about premarital sex?
Premarital sex is prohibited in Islam. Forms of contraception are permissible. Premarital sex is against Islam because it increases the possibility of children being born without parents. Multiple partners can cause a spread of sexually transmitted diseases, and so forth.
The institution of marriage is critical in Islam. Islam acknowledges the difficulties for men to abstain from sex for long periods of time, and encourages early marriage. Although the institution of marriage is so different when talking in Western current day terms, it is hard to discuss without a full understanding of what 'marriage' means Islamically.

Hadith - Sahih Bukhari, Volume 7, Book 62, Number 4, Narrated 'Abdullah[/font]
[font=Helvetica,Arial]We were with the Prophet while we were young and had no wealth whatever. So Allah's Apostle said, "O young people! Whoever among you can marry, should marry, because it helps him lower his gaze and guard his modesty, and whoever is not able to marry, should fast, as fasting diminishes his sexual power."[/font]
The Holy Prophet (saww) once said,
"Whoever marries, protects half of his religion, then for the remaining half he must only fear God."
