    Personally...

    I don't think people should have sex until they are done with their basic education (High School). I think everybody in today's youth is trying to grow up way too fast, which means they have sex earlier, they start drinking and partying earlier, which leads to dumber decisions longer. You're not allowed to drink until your 21 for a reason. AND even some people that are of the legal drinking age are still too immature to be drinking responsibly. Sex is just another way to open up the gateway to wanting to become an adult. Kind of like how with drug addicts marijuana isnt enough, it opens up the doors for them to want more...like beer is for alcoholics, it's not strong enough, they want more so they upgrade to drinking bottles of whiskey. I'm not saying this WILL happen if you have sex while in school b/c then I'd be a hypocrit. But I was very smart about choosing my partners and using condoms...I can also say that I was VERY LUCKY!!! A COUPLE OF TIMES!! High school is hard enough without worrying about pregnancies, STD's, and all the drama that follows those things. Plus most relationships in high school don't last long and most aren't as sincere as some would like you to believe. Most guys are just looking to see how many girls or how much pussy they can get/conquer lol. it sounds bad but that's the truth. Save it until you're done with learning b/c after that's over, trust me, there is lots of time for sex. hahaha

    NO offence but, I think you seem a little to trusting towards the government, I'm not trying to undermine the state, But the drinking age 21? I mean It's 16 in places and it works a lot better, The drinking culture is more relaxed people don't drink to get drunk, plus so much crime, I.e. Identidy fraud follows such a high drinking age, And I know plenty of people who smoke Weed and won't go any further, I mean c'mon It's legal in some countries, It's like alcohol, It's not really harmfull unless It's in excess. In my oppinion one of the only reasons it's contraband is because the government wouldn't be ab;e to impose a tax on it, as it's so easy to grow.

    It's all about who you are and your influences I guess, But because It's restricted people see it as more exciting and want to do it much more.


    I don't think people should have sex until they are done with their basic education (High School). And to this, I'm in my last year at high school, Lot's of people have had meaningfull relationships, and had sex, It just brought them closer. And Relationships will still break up when you've left school, What's the difference?

    but in response to the poll I refuse to answer simply because It's different for everyone, When you think you're ready you probably are.

    not age, maturity

    although it is hard to measure one's maturity, i think that is how one can detirmine if he/she is ready to have sex. if both people fully understand the consequences/benefits of having sex and want to have it, than i would say that they are ready.
    however i would say that a person would probably best understand that if they are in their late teens...

    yea

    alrite I agree I was under the influence when I first posted my comment, but that was mostly just personal experience of what happened to my younger sisters which of course was embarrassing to myself. I guess I wanted to save somebody else the humility by reaching out to those who would do the humiliating. But I was wrong. It is about maturity and if they're ready to face the consequences like said above me, and if they're ready for the changes it is going to make in the relationship. Soon sex with become expected every time you start to fool around b/c most teenage guys have the simple way of thinking..."well if we've already done it, what's the hurt in doing it again, why do we have to stop at (whatever point you stop at, you can fill in the blank) And when this starts to happen, if the guy doesn't get what he wants he starts to build resentment towards the girl and then seeks out his supposive "needs" elsewhere and the girl gets her heartbroken, especially in teens or high school students. My best advice is to wait as long as you can to have sex with one another in a relationship so you can build something solid around the relationship before adding something so potent into the mix. Sex is a blessing and a great thing in this world, one of the most beautiful acts of affection and love. And its also nice to just get a good humping out of your system too, LoL, it's not all about love and chocolates, you can have casual sex, but this is where the chances of somebody getting hurt multiply by many. Drunken one night stands, if you use a condom, are usually the best ways to get that itchy "I gotta have sex feeling" and it carries the least amount of baggage and possibility of getting hurt emotionally. Just remember that sex is a gift and a blessing, not a game to be gambled with. I hope this shines some light on the realities of sexual relationship in teens and even young adults.

    Be Responsible and Lets get back to sexual attitude and sexual ways of the mid-late 60's and all throughout the 80's where everybody was making love with everybody else. I wish it could be that way but there are just toooo many risks nowadays with all the STD's that are out now. And like Eddie Murphy says, they're coming back stronger and harder to cure LoL Like when ya go to the DR. and fire shoots out your dick, you've got a problem.

    I agree with Marcus .Sex is a gift and a blessing.I think that the perfect age is 18+ . Sb should get to know his/her self well before thinking abut sex .There are many important things in this life then just sex and now days teens seem to care only about that. Personally i think that sex isn't just the act f coupling ,but should be considered as sth more emotional.Like a reunion between two bodies .So sb should be mature enough before talking this important step .Life would be more beautiful this way.
    I hope my opinion doesn't sound that archaic ,but just thought about writing sth.

    Is This Ok?

    So would you agree it was alright if a teen couple lost their virginity to eachother after talking about it and when they did do it, it brought them so so close together. And now they've planned a real future together and will be moving in with eachother soon.
