Sex is certainly one of the most sensation in life (pardon me but do hear me out) but anything before marriage no matter if it is bf-gf courtship, one night stand, extra marital affairs and for some, they called it deep sense of mutual love, it is simply lust.
However, sex in a marriage is the most blessed and wonderful act of love between the husband and wife which will certainly help in fostering their relationship instead.
Any premarital sex will only lead to more problems down the road and have repercussion effects in later age.
When it comes to the issue of right and wrong, it's going to be a tough debate.. Why? Because in this world there exists different standards of moral acceptability caused by societal norms, religions, and so on..
Premarital sex is, no doubt, a taboo in the past but whether we agree or not, society has now moved in such a way that the "taboo-ness" is decreasing. According to some, of course, sex is a sacred process between the married couple, but snap back to reality. Whats so sacred about it now in the society? You can still stand strong and argue that it is still sacred and that's your view to say but it won't probably change society's perception.
Simply lust? It could probably turn out one day that sex would be perceived as nothing but just another form of exercise/activity. But I'm guessing that as much as most societies are moving towards that, it will unlikely to happen.
As mentioned by many others here, sex responsibly. The answer to your question is not so clear here but it is a pre-determined answer that they are for premarital sex.
My religion says no, and yet my society says yes (or at least it looks like we are heading towards that answer). My say is not that important after all..
