i hear constantly about 14 year olds having sex... this is scary. what has the world come to? one day people will be having sex at 8 and then people will finally realise there is a problem. i dont see why 14 year olds have sex when they are so young... at 14 i was like, gross, why have sex? i'm 17 now and i am a virgin... i am proud of that and i like it coz guys respect me and i know a guy isn't going out with me for sex. what i want to know is why do girls lose that respect at such a young age? and how young were people when they lost their virginity???

Xtakexmyxbreathxawayx answered Wednesday May 4 2005, 6:38 pm: i dont like this question at all, because it is mostly an opinion. i am 15. and im NOT a virgin i have only had sex with one person and i am proud that i lost it with who i lost it with. i love him more than anyone. i think u shouldnt be so quick to say all of that stuff. do you know any of the girls you are talking about not all of them are doing it or stupid reasons. (i know some of them are and thats for them to i guess find out the hard way) when i had sex with my boyfriend i was ready, it was how i wanted to lose it. guys still do respect me because they always have and because of the person i am, and they didnt treat me any diffrent before i had sex. if i was put in the same situation i would do the same thing all over again. i am not a slut whore tramp or anything i am just in love and i did what i wanted and was ready for at the time. i just hope you you understand not to put people in a catagory like that. sara.

ALoathedCrime answered Wednesday March 30 2005, 3:08 am: I'm 15. I personally think it is a dumb ass thing to do to have sex until you are ready. I don't believe that there is any age limit. (Well.. I do... I mean...as you said...8 year olds are not going to cut it...) I believe you wait until you are ready and I personally know that I am not ready at all. I'm with my boyfriend and I care about him a lot, but it is not love yet. Even if it was, I don't know if I would do anything with him. I'm personally not waiting for marriage- just someone special who won't leave me and will be mine for a long time. [ ALoathedCrime's advice column | Ask ALoathedCrime A Question ]

nocturnalkid answered Friday March 11 2005, 6:32 pm: I don't believe that fourteen year old's are always fully aware of the consequences that come with sex, but that doesn't mean I disagree with sex before marriage. I don't think all girls who have sex before marriage are easy, because I myself am not a virgin.
I know I'm not easy or a whore, and I'm certainly no slut; guys and girls both still respect me because I am still a respectable person--not being a virgin doesn't change that. Having sex doesn't make me stupid or any less of a person, but I just couldn't imagine being mentally or emotionally ready to make a decision like losing my virginity at the tender age of 14 or 15.
I think it's a little bit sad the way future generations or denigrating themselves and putting themselves at risk of STDs or teen parenthood. It's something that should be changed, but how? Do we force all people to follow one religion? Do we make a law forbidding sex before marriage?

Its just not cool in the long run! i mean its only cool when it happens, im all about waiting until i am married. I will. your virginity is something very special, and i dont think that they realize just how special it is. if a guy really wants to be with you then he will, and he will respect your decision to wait to do things, and if he does respect you and you do end up doing it, he shouldnt leave you after regardless if you get pregnate or not. I've got a great guy of over a year and i love him, and we have promiced eachother, ourselves, God, Jesus, that we will not have sex until we are married, and sure that we can support a child, and raise a happy, healthy family. I fully agree with you. I think that these young women dont udnerstand just how special your virginity is.
I Hope I helped.

TheTeenGirl answered Saturday March 5 2005, 9:00 pm: I agree 100 percent. There are a lot of pregnant young teens, and sometimes I feel like crying about it, and I just think "man, what happened to people wanting to save themselves for marriage." And the only answer I know is love. When you fall in love young and you feel the strong attraction to that guy, its like you just do it, and it happens. I'm 14 and still safe, and I'm trying to save myself until the right person comes. But, I think that maybe you'd understand better if you were 14 and were in love, I know its no excuse, but you just forget about that time when you were 11, saying "I'm waiting until marriage." And you just do it. But, I do agree with you.

Some are even proud. My next door neighbor a while back revealed she had a 16 year old daughter. My neighbor is only 26! So beleive it or not they are having sex at 8 some are. i had two pregnant girls in my sixth grade class! (in college now) some young girls look at a lot of tv.

itsjustme answered Thursday March 3 2005, 3:17 am: it looks like me and Evilenterprisesinc are your only 2 guy supporters so far, in all 33 entries. thats probibly the main problem. men are becoming pigs at younger and younger ages. guys suck, thats why most of my friends are girls. it also appears im your oldest virgin here. im 18 and dont plan on having sex until im married. i have a girlfriend and we fool around, but neither one of us wants to have sex.
one other point is that the standard has gone down. my girlfriend is 16 and her parents told us no sex until she is 18. they arnt shooting for "until you are married" anymore, so younger and younger ages are not so far off of the parents accepted age.
the only young people mature enough to have sex are the ones taht realize that they are not mature enough to have sex.
and to answer KinkyBunnyGiggle. not all guys think with their penises. the problem is, if you dont think with your penis, you look gay, so we are hard to pick out from the gay croud. [ itsjustme's advice column | Ask itsjustme A Question ]

To answer your question..I CANT answer your question. The best thing I can say is "Choice." It's their decision if they want to have sex. It's NOT they're decision if they're in love though. I mean you can't just fall in and out of love on your own ya know? You're waiting..that's very impressive, and now you've got a good reputation to follow that.
So yeah..it's all about choice. Just like you chose to wait, other girls chose that they didn't want to wait until it could be something special..

mylinhthan answered Tuesday March 1 2005, 8:01 pm: confused -
I definitely agree with you. It's kinda funny cuz a lot of those sexually active teeny boppers are the ones constantly asking questions on advicenators, eh? It's so sad.
There are a variety of reasons why they could be losing their virginity at such a young age. It could be that the media is constantly "sexualizing" television, music, and magazines. Nowadays it's common for "tweens" to wear a lot of makeup, dress sexy, and unfortunately get pressured into having sex. But also it could be peer pressure, "love", or just the desire to be an adult. The list is endless.
When I was that age, sex wasn't common, but sexual play was. As for your question on the age I lost my virginity, it was a few days before my 17th birthday. I know I was young still, and if you believe me or not, "it just happened." It wasn't planned, it just happened. Even so, I don't regret my decision because me and my boyfriend have been together for nearly a year when it had happened and are still together today (2.5+ years). In a sense it has strengthened our relationship because we felt we loved each other enough to share what's most personal with each other. Don't get the wrong impression that I was naive, "believing" I was in love. We talked about it for months before anything had happened, that's how much it meant to us.

elmo answered Tuesday March 1 2005, 6:49 pm: I am fourteen and I know alot of people I hang out aren't versions [sometimes depending on what you consider virgin]. I think that with us, at least it's not even about being cool anymore. In seventh grade and some parts of eighth grade people bragged about having oral sex or sex but it's not really like that anymore. People tend to not have boyfriends/girlfriends anymore, they just hook-up with friends so you can have the friendship and great relationship and a sexual aspect as well without any commitment. I think that oral sex and sex is so common now that people don't really think too much of it anymore. I don't know anyone who would have sex with a stranger but love and commitment to each other doesn't seem to be an issue anymore.
I'm still a virgin, but sex isn't gross to me at all and it's tempting sometimes when I've had the opportunity, so I can sort of see why my friends do what they do. There is a part of me that wants to not be in a relationship, and have sex with a friend so I know what the terms of the relationship are and everything is clear and at the same time I'm doing it with someone I care about. I don't think I would do that, simply because I don't think it would be fufilling. I've made out with random people before, and people that I care about and I tend to enjoy it a little more with the people I care about. [ elmo's advice column | Ask elmo A Question ]

i know exactly what your saying.
i mean everybody at 14 and so on think that having sex is cool and everybody does it and its just a cool thing to be doing it. cuz everybody else is doing it.
but actually its NOT.!
im 15 and im still a virgin and im proud of it too. i dunno why would u want to have sex at such a young age. i guess its from all the peer preasure and all the kids talking about it, and everyone wants to try it and see how it is.
but its sooooooo wrong and i think that kids at this age shouldnt even know about sex.
its sad how kids only at the age of 8 and 10 know about sex. they shouldnt even know anything about it.
but its all b/c of the peer preasure and being cool.

Karen answered Tuesday March 1 2005, 6:04 pm: Girls lose their virginity at a young age because they thinks it something great and they look up to older girls who have sex at the age of 16 and such. They think it's "cool", knowing that they can now talk about how they lost their virginity so guys will notice them. Movies and shows also have an impact on girls and that's why some lose their virginity at a young age. I think it's quite retarded and dumb for girls thinking that their sexual partner loves them so much that they are ready to have sex with them and that after they do, the guy leaves them. Today, girls usually lose their virginity between 13-15. Don't worry, it's great that you aren't like the other girls in this world and that guys respect your decision of not wanting to have sex.

xXxpinky615xXx answered Tuesday March 1 2005, 6:04 pm: Well, I for one I am not a virgin. I lost my virginity a few months ago to my boyfriend of 9 months. We did it because we felt that we were ready and we love eachother so we wanted to take it to the next level. There is so much pressure in todays society about having sex and you think "Hey, everyone's doing it, why not me?" And it shouldn't be that way. Both me and my boyfriend do regret having sex at such a very young age and if we could take it back we would but in reality, you can't. I did it because I was in love and I wanted to take my relationship to the next level. With other girls, they do it because they <i>think</i> they're in love and they just want to please their boyfriend. It's also a stupid popularity contest. If the most popular girl has had sex with this guy and that guy and all of her friends have had sex with so and so and so and so, I should do it to because maybe they'll like me. I was not pressured in any way to do it, it was simply my mistake that I made in doing it. Both of us regret doing it and since that day haven't done it at all. We've come to realize all of the risks that we are taking in doing this and we want to wait until we are older to share that moment again. I have only been with ONE guy and I only plan to be with ONE guy. For girls that's how they feel but then, if their boyfriend breaks up with them and they had sexual intercourse, they feel like there is something missing from their new relationship and start to have sex and it's the same vicious cycle. I hope I answered your question enough so you could get at the very least a partial understanding about why girls and guys are losing their virginity at such a young age.

MummuM answered Tuesday March 1 2005, 6:01 pm: Girls think it's cool to have sex at the age of 14. They just want to feel wanted and like they actually fit in. They probably do this because they always see it in movies or music videos. It just leaves them wondering what it's like to actually have sex. It's really their problem, because once they hit highschool they have a name and it will stick with them. Then guys will only want them for sex and nothing else. I was 15 when I lost my virginity, but I was in love with the person and I wouldn't trade that moment for the world.
