The question of why some Christians engage in premarital sex is complex and multifaceted. It is also a question that requires a personal answer so when answering this question, I will do so broadly and subjectively. I am in no position to take an objective stance over this question, I only know what I know and I am aware that what I know may be wrong. Not all Christians believe that premarital sex is morally acceptable, and there is significant variation among Christian denominations and among people in their beliefs and practices regarding sexual behaviour. Here are some factors that I think may contribute to why some Christians engage in premarital sex:

Cultural and Social Factors: In many parts of the world, premarital sex is becoming more accepted and normalized, even among religious communities. This can create pressure for many people to conform to societal norms and engage in sexual behavior before marriage.

Lack of Education: Some Christians may not fully understand or appreciate the biblical teachings on sexual purity and may engage in premarital sex out of ignorance or misunderstanding.

Personal Beliefs and Values: Some Christians may hold different beliefs and values regarding sexuality than those traditionally taught by the church. For example, some Christians may believe that love and commitment are more important than marital status when it comes to sexual relationships.

Temptation and Weakness: Christians, like all human beings, are subject to temptation and may struggle with sexual desires and impulses. This can be particularly challenging for young Christians who may be exploring their sexuality and trying to navigate the complexities of relationships and social norms.

Hypocrisy and Judgment: Some Christians may feel that the church’s emphasis on sexual purity is hypocritical or overly judgmental, particularly if they have experienced judgment or condemnation from fellow believers for their sexual behavior.

It’s important to note that engaging in premarital sex is not unique to Christianity, and it is a behavior that is common across all religious and cultural backgrounds. Ultimately, people must make their own decisions about their sexual behavior based on their personal beliefs and values, and it is up to each person to decide what is right for them.

These are just some of my thoughts, what are your thoughts on this topic?
