One would hope you are not promoting that behavior, Darthrevan, as that is considered rape.

It's pretty easy. Just sleep with a girl that has a boyfriend while she's drunk, and then threaten to tell him if she doesn't do things for you, or whatever you want.

To me, sex is just for fun when you're not ready to have kids yet. I'm not saying go and have sex with everyone, but there's not a problem with haven't sex occasionally. But it isn't a good idea to have it as early as 14. That's still a little young. And there's always the age of consent to take into consideration. If the age of consent in your state is 16, and you have sex at 14, it's illegal.

Of course it makes sense. What purpose does sex serve other than reproduction, and for what reason other than reproduction or pleasure? Or blackmail?

That doesn't make sense. Do you mean what did I know about sex besides that it was for reproduction? I wasn't that sheltered. I knew that sex happened because the people "loved each other" and that it was enjoyable for the people involved. 11 years old is like 6th grade. I find it hard to believe that an 11 year old boy had never heard people talking about sex before.

i don't think you can say "As a senior you are automatically ready to have sex. it's different for everyone, but I am positive that noone is ready before the age of 13.

well I guess I'm going to side with Darth on this one (shocking I know...) I think it's dumb to say that sex is "sacred" That being said, 14 is super young to be having sex b/c it's not safe and your body isn't biologically ready to do that. You should wait not b/c of like anything "sacred" so much as for safety reasons and STD's and such. Always use a condom.

I have my morals and values, thank you very much. ------and theres a whole lot you can do and still not go that far, just fyi

uh i hate to rain on your parade but, 14 is still pretty freaking young to be giving yourself up for someone else. at 14 you still can't fully undertsnd the sacred meaning of sex. yes sacred. it is the ultimate act of love. it is the best present you can give to that person who your supposed to love and cherish for the rest of your life. it's like the one gift your supposed to be saving just for them because it shows they're special to you. how would you feel is someone go a present just for you. and you were really excited to get it, but then you found out they either already gave it away, or (if youd rather look at it like this) thy already gave it to someone and then that someone didn't want it anymore, so they gave it back. and now it's being given to you. trust me, if you can, hang on to it. if you really can't wait, at least hang on to your virginity untill your senior year in hight school. if you take religion, you might learn about this. then you'll definatly view things differently. if you don't take religion, you'll be more mature and might understand better.


I smile because I have NO idea what's going on.

Mostly it's media. It shows that that is the proper norm. Even though they don't show children having sex, they do sort of implement that teens do it in the movies. Naturally, kids wonder what it's like and they give it a try.

i agree with you alot of people seem to lose their virginity before high school now. Some people feel as if it's something they need to do and if they don't they are left out. Also some feel they have nothing better to do.
