It's interesting that the GB spend so much effort trying to control what the flock do in the marraige bed yet ignore the members of Bethal that like little boys. Oh the irony, yet it is more sad that some actually look to this evil organisation for guidelines to run their lives.

Michael,
I will take Euphemism's point a step further and suggest to you that "if you had any expectations of having a normal...relationship with your girlfriend (as a wife), you might have to reconsider that."
My advice, though a hard pill to swallow, is to get out of the relationship. Forget it. Unless she totally rejects EVERYTHING about the WTBTS, the odds are overwhelming that you will ultimately be very unhappy. If she is willing to reject it all, then she will need a loving companion to explore the real world with her. In that case, you could be in for an awesome time as you learn to love life and grow together. If not, I predict that you will grow apart on so many issues that you will not be able to grow together as a couple.
Again, a very hard pill to swallow, but I am very sincere and firmly believe what I have written above.
Good luck.
Misha

Hello Michael!
I had not thought to bring up sexuality with her for fear of sounding sex-obsessed, so I do not know for sure that she follows the JW doctrine quoted above for sure.
Sex is an incredibly important part of any relationship. It SHOULD be discussed and experienced if you plan to spend the rest of your life with that person. You can learn a lot about a person from the way they act in the bedroom.
However, if you plan on staying with this person, you will have to wait until marriage to discover what they're like in the bedroom. She may have some deep down personal issues that will only show up in the bedroom.
Also, you will be refraining from going down on her all because of a bunch of impotent old men living in brooklyn. Do you really think that old impotent men know how to have a successful and pleasing sex life?

Thank you for the feedback everyone. I guess as an outsider I cannot fully appreciate the impact religion has on the marital bed. I think I had always just assumed that what a married couple do behind closed doors sexually is between them and them alone.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention through the posts. I would have never known otherwise, and at least now I know what questions to ask in advance.

To answer your question, in a simpler manner:
Yes, IF it is mutually accepted, no one including the WS, can or will have any objections at all. Although they may object to her marrying you, a not witness ? but again can?t really do anything about it.
All, the so called research stuff, is purely academic in real life (and in accordance with the bible) is shouldn?t present any problem.

[Watchtower spokesperson J. R.] Brown said Witnesses believe that sexual activity between men and women should "follow the normal course." of things. "We feel that oral or anal intercourse would go beyond that."
