Pros

The entire premise of the 90 day rule is for one to withhold sexual activity for a total of three months, ideally promoting the development of intimacy, bonding and respect.  Women are primarily the ones who gravitate towards this rule, as it puts them in a place of power and control when it comes to the budding relationship.  One of the main benefits of waiting 90 days before engaging in sexual activity is having the ability to make sound choices and decisions when it comes to sex.  When first meeting a man that captures her interest, a woman can jump into sexual activity with little thought of how this will have an effect on the relationship down the road, and for some this fact alone is a deciding factor for whether the relationship will have long term value or a “just for the moment” appeal.  No woman wants to be viewed as “loose” or easy, so the 90 day rule is appealing in the sense that it can make a woman appear calculated in her approach when it comes to sexual desire and expression.

Another benefit many believe the 90 day rule provides is the promise of commitment at the end of the period.  After 90 days, if a man is able to resist his sexual urges for a woman, he will fall in love with her as a whole and not only her sexual ability.  This benefit of the 90 day rule hasn’t always proven to be true, but one can dream.
