What do you think of younger teens having sex?

[Frantic Search]

I don't really care as long as they're being safe and using protection. It's between people who are involved, not me.

[Dustiest Gozongas]

No I don't care. That's not something I think about. It's not like they're my kids. I just hope they have had adequate sex education.

I was 17 the first time I had sex. It was awkward and unpleasant. We did have the sense to use a condom, though.

[Tears of a Marionette]

Let's see~ When I first had sex I was this scared low self-esteem 13 year old with my shitty horny af 15 year old ex at that time when it happened and it is was terrible and embarrassing. Also cuz everything he learned was from porn omg


So I do care because I feel that kids need to be physically, and mentally prepared + educated before sex.

[Caffeinated Rooster]

it was pretty normal for people to be having sex at that age. I was the weird one for being a virgin at 19

[Cait Nathair]

I think 12-14 is still much too young, and even 15-16 is pushing the bill in my honest opinion. I didn't start having sex until I was 15 or 16 with a girl, almost 18 with a guy, and in hindsight I realize I wasn't ready to accept that responsibility and was pretty careless about it.

[internet lame]

I'm 15, and I lost my virginity when I was 14.
I'm still continuing to have casual sex with the same partner, and I know the consequences of becoming pregant and the risks I'm taking when having unprotected sex.
Of course I take precautions, like being on birth control. . although I rarely use condoms. . .
I understand many people don't believe the pull out method is safe, and yes, I understand that precum plays as a threat too. So far I haven't become pregnant, and the day I wanted to lose my virginity, I knew what my plan B was if I were to become pregnant at such a young age which is to abort.
I'm pro abortion; I don't feel that abortion is unethical or anything neither am I religious so it doesn't pain me or make me uncomfortable knowing that I may have to do that if I do become pregnant.

I feel that teenagers, especially those at my age, should be able to make those types of choices as long as they know the consequences and if they are able to handle them (whether it be good or bad).
Either way, teens will be sexually active whether you make a law about it, or whether adults look down on it. I think that it shouldn't matter if they make these choices at a young age as long as it is done with consent (of course not breaking the law by doing it with an 18 yr old) and that they know what they're getting themselves into and if they will be able to handle the chance of pregnancy, stds, etc.

so do you get tested befor eor after sex? confused do you make sure your partner(s) is/are tested before having sex with them? you say you aren't using condoms. safe sex is about more than just pregnancies.

and before you think about abrtions, have you considered your plan B actually being Plan B? not saying that it needs to be your answer... it is unfortunately quite expensive, especially in states where contraception is heavily frowned upon and proper access to women's healthcare is difficult or impossible to get.... but just making sure you've looked into it.

alot of kids your age think they know what they are doing and what the risks and consequences are... but they don't really get it. my sister is your age, and she thinks she's not in danger when walking around the neighborhood after dark by herself. try to tell her why it's not ok, and she just yells "I know, I know it's not safe, I"m not stupid, I know how to take care of myself if something bad happens."

likewise, I'm gonna take with a grain of salt anything a teenager says about how ready they are for sex and how much they understand the dangers.... you may think you know it all, but you probably don't.

I'm talking early years, like 12 - 15 ages.
Do you care? Why/whynot?
Does this opinion apply to everyone that age, or just the ones who advertise about it?
What age were you when you first had sex?
Did you even use protection?
How awkward was it?

Really hard to say for sure for me. I'd rather they not because of the huge consequences, but that's why it's so important for there to be comprehensive education because there will always be those who do it so young anyway. It's tough because I don't feel that 12-15 is really mature enough to actually be having sex, even when I was that age. There's so many other things you can do without full-on penetration anyway. Do these kids even have ready access to condoms or contraceptives at all? If not, it's actually not really worth the risk. You might as well get yourself off if that's the case.

The biggest bottom line for me though is as long as no person feels forced, or guilted into doing it. That's my biggest problem.

For myself, I feel like I'm a late bloomer at 24. But it was worth it in my situation to wait. And yes I did use protection. It wasn't awkward at all, it was a bit uncomfortable sometimes, but I was (and still am) with someone I care about so it was a very good experience.

I don't. but I know as much as I said to you. that's the point; you can't act like you have all the answers. you gotta be as safe as you can. and I'm asking you some very important questions that you had better knw the answers to if you want to g around having unprotected sex. because let me tell you, that's absolutely ******** stupid of you.

so knock off the attitude, and take some good advice. I can show you some very good websites and material that will say it much nicer than I will.

Scarleteen is chock full of great information for sexually active teenagers. smile it talks about STDs, Pregnancies, Contraception, Consent, the whole nine yards. take the time to explore that site, thoroughly.

I also highly recommend you visit an LGBT Youth Pride Center. they have loads of resources and good advice, not just for queer and non-binary people, but also for straight cis people. look for your local chapter. Pride Centers are the best places I know of.

you should also take a look at youtube videos from the following channels:

Laci Green's Sex+ series

and Dr. Lindsey Doe's Sexplanations series.

Do you know what consent is? Do you know how to give affirmative consent?

Also, hi, 25 year old here. Unless you are 100% certain your partner is STI free (as in you went and got tested together or really, really trust their word) condoms are a smart way to go. You have got pregnancy handled I think. But STI's are a ******** b***h and you don't want them.

On birthcontrol... Are you aware of the VERY COMMON drugs that ******** up birth control. I am alive because my mother had an ear infection. Anti-biotics render hormonal birth control useless for a month after last dose. St. John's Wart, an herbal supplement does the same thing. Are you taking your birthcontrol perfectly (same time every day). Do you have cash set aside if you need an abortion? Do you know if you need parental consent given you are a minor?

[Kristy the Kitty Kat]

I lost my virginity at 18 because I knew that I was finally mentally stable enough to deal with the consequences if anything bad happened. I was on birth control but didn't use a condom. Of course I don't feel comfortable with 12-15 year olds having sex but honestly what can we do about it? It's more about taking preventative measures at this point, my mom put me on birth control at 12 years old and nowadays it just needs to be that way. I care less about preteens and teens having sex and more about teen pregnancy and how to prevent it.
