What age do you think is right?

Question

Like, seriously, if a "Kid" under the age of 16 wants to have s*x, there going too, what there parents, teachers, friends, siblings etc, say, aren't going to change that.

I myself, am 14 years old, I believe that I'm sexually mature to have be sexually active.

I will admit I am sexually active with my current boyfriend.

I don't go around bragging about this, and i've only slept with him, and yet I get called a slag.

People will say I am going to regret this when i'm older, which I most probably will, But for the meanwhile - I'm good with me.

What do you think ?

Answer 1

I agree with you, it is your decision and no one else's. If you are wondering if you are too young, think if you are too young for the negative that could happen. You could get pregnant, get and STD, and if your boyfriend does leave you you may become depressed. If you can handle all of this..then I think you are ready!

But Just be careful I know a lot of girls that get pregnant at 14-17 they are not ready for that commitment! You are young, enjoy life while you can..a baby as sweet as they are change everything! Trust me!!

Answer 2

if you truly love your boyfriend go for it, besides our bodies are made to create children - through s*x - from as early as nine, so it's clearly natural. as long as your contraception is sorted and you not doing it with every tom, d**k [;)], or harry then go for it.

Answer 3

how will you regret it? lol ..  

Answer 4

The legal consent age of 16 is there for good reason. While you may think you are sexually mature enough - many people under this age are not. Have you planned contraception correctly? Have you thought about the issues of STDs? Im not judging you on this matter - just saying that a lot of young people are not ready for s*x.

Answer 5

I think you're too young. I lost my virginity when I was 14 and I'm now 29. I regret losing it then. You really are not mature at that age, you'll realize when you're older.

Answer 6

You're too young.  

Answer 7

Well your 14 and your doing it anyway so stay safe be protected from diseases and pregnancy,use condoms. x

Answer 8

wow thats amazing. your mature enough for a baby? or dealing with the concequesnces of pregnancy?? i wish i was as mature as you.  

Answer 9

if you don't brag about it...how do other people know enough about it to call you a slag??  

i think 16 is a more acceptable age than 14!

Answer 10

Haha every 14 year old teen thinks they are mature enough haha why am i ansrewing this quite frankly my dear i dont give a d**n :)

Answer 11

because your just that a KID. kids arent supposed to have s*x

you think your sexually mature. but what if you get pregnant. are you mature enough for that? you need to be more then sexually mature. and the way this question is you dont put yourself off as mature at all

and honestly if you dont brag about having s*x then how do people know that your having s*x. you must tell someone about it.

and since you know your gunna regret it later then why did you do it??? life shouldnt be about regrets it should be about happiness. and since your gunna regret that then you life isnt gunna have happiness. i just lost my virginity to my boyfriend of a year and 2 months back in april on my 16th birthday/9th month anniversary. we're happy together and we're in love. honestly people say s*x changes you and your outlook on life. it didnt for me. i think if your actually ready it wont change you at all. its just an extra thing in life. that i share with the love of my life. and i can honestly say if we ever broke up i would NOT regret losing my virginity to him because i know at the time i was in love with him.

can you say the same about your boy toy?

Answer 12

17 18 not 14 u will regret it lost your innocence too early

Answer 13

well yes people at that age are really ready to have s*x... the people who made the law where just thinking if they where ready 4 a little accident. Teenagers tend to think they ♥ everyone who they get into a relationship (hormones) (i am one so i can talk) although know s*x really isn't about ♥... i'd say at that age it's cureosity and becuase it is good 2 put that on ur list of sexual activities. Also teenagers are considered more "h0rney" due to yet again those hormornes...

Wow i cna write all this and yet i'm stuck for ideas on my English coursework :(

Answer 14

Uuum..

To be honest I think its a personal choice for that individual person, not everyone is the same and some people mature quicker then others.

I think its completely up to you, these people can only guide you and advise you but in the end its your body your decision no one Else's.

I'm 14 and me personally I'm gonna wait until I'm at least 16, but yea that's my choice!

If people call you a slag or whatever i think that's wrong its got nothing to do with them! Just ignore it.

Although saying this i don't think its right for lets say a 11 or 12 year old to be sexually active, even if its their choice! they are still innocent and children but i guess 14+ your old enough to make your own decision =)

Answer 15

The age of sixteen is an age set by man. It may be against the laws of man to have s*x under this age but is it against the laws of nature or god? Is there any other creature on the earth that sets an age? I am not advocating it but what is wrong with following the laws of nature or god.

Answer 16

I don't know, maybe you wont regret it. I lost my virginity when I was 17, and I regretted it because of who it was with. That was it.

If you do love your current boyfriend and are with him for a while then maybe it'll just be one of those things to you..

Personally I think 14 is too young, and you must have bragged about it to someone if they call you a slag?  

Answer 17

u will regret it

Answer 18

It's your choice as long as it is safe s*x then its up to you. I lost my virginity at your age. I regret it now and wish i had waited but i wanted to know what it was like. If you and your boyfriend love each other then i don't see a problem. Just be careful. I hope this helps.

Answer 19

the boys could be saying u are a fine ride

Answer 20

OK. Very simple here: if you have s*x under the age of 16 YOU ARE BREAKING THE LAW.

If your boyfriend has s*x with you at the age of 14: HE IS BREAKING THE LAW AND CAN BE ARRESTED. In addition, in extreme cases he can also be made to sign the s*x OFFENDERS REGISTER.

The law doesn't give too sh*ts about how "sexually mature" you think you are at 14 (fyi, trust me you're not).

Hope this helps you stay out of prison.

Answer 21

You're too young.  There's plenty of time for s*x, you should be concentrating on school so you give yourself a good future.

I hope you're having safe s*x too.

Answer 22

Just wait until you're pregnant...

then you'll regret it

Answer 23

There's no "right" age as everyone is different, some people are probably mature enough at 14 to have s*x while others might not be mature enough at 18 or even older.

However, there's no ideal solution to this problem so the authorities set an age of consent which is a fine balancing act between making it too high or too low.

Unfortunately this age of consent often encourages children under the age of 16 to have s*x rather than the other way around and then peer pressure leads to more underrage s*x.

It's not really any of my business but you need to make sure you are taking precautions to avoid STDs and pregnancy and be aware of the fact that you are breaking the law and you boyfriend could be considered a paedophile.

Answer 24

If You Belive In Yourself that Your Ready To Do It Than Go On Ahead! There's Absolutely Nothing Wrong With Having s*x...I Mean It Feels Good & Brings You Closer With That Special Someone. Just Make Sure You Use a Condom Or Some Other Protection Every Time You Do It. Also, Make Sure Your Partner Doesn't Have An STD. If You Feel Uncomfortable At Anytime Or It Hurts You Always Have The Choice To Say NO! Another Thing, Make Sure You Think About It Before You Do It & Ask Yourself These Questions, What Would My (Friends, Teachers, Parents, Family, & My Town Say About This If Thay Found Out?), In Other Words Be Ready For The Consequences That Willl Follow If People You Don't Want To Know Find Out! Hope This Helps(:

Answer 25

I say atleast be in highschool. And you will regret it. Im 17 and i do regret somewhat of what i have done sexually in the past. And you wouldnt be being called names if you or your boyfriend didnt tell anyone. I have never once told a single person that im not a virgin not even a best friend. Whats the point? Its just gunna get around the school and its no ones bussiness.

Answer 26

i think you should start learning how to write...because it seems that you might be mature to have s*x but not mature enough to ask a question...

Answer 27

i lost my virginity to my boyfriend who i'd been dating for a year I'm 17 now and still with him. i believed i was ready for s*x when i was 14 and don't regret losing it then at all. i think it just depends on you as an individual and your relationship. there shouldn't be a age where you are believed to be ready for s*x as at 16 people may still not be ready.

Answer 28

Im 26 and I lost my virginity at 16 . I should have waited . . .People say that they regret loosing it young (especially females). Later on down the line when you get older, you'll probably be saying the same thing. I think Its better to wait. It doesnt mean you have too . ...s*x and relationships are complicated. Theres a lot of emotions involved . Young people usually dont know how to deal or  are not ready to deal with all of that . And there are some people my age that have difficulties dealing with it. I hope you're using birth control methods and condoms.  

Answer 29

Because "kids" should be concentrating on their school work, not messing around with their boyfriend. That way they will be able to write a paragraph that hasn't got simple mistakes in, such as using "there" instead of "they're".

Answer 30

ok first of all i believe its your choice,, No family or friend or anybodys .. i dont see how you will regret it when you get older... Im dating an older guy and we have been talking about s*x and i really want to.... Theres no scientific statement that says you will regret it when your older... As long as you use protection then go right ahead....Just make sure when you decide not to use protection that your ready for the rresponsibility'sof a child... Thats alll

Answer 31

There is no right age - except any age that feels right from 16 onwards!

Why do young people think that s*x is the be all and end all.  

There are so many risks - emotionally and physically.  

It has also been proven that girls who become sexually active at a young age are more prone to cervical cancer.

I understand that you may be more mature than others your age - but legally you are still a child - and you are throwing your childhood away too soon.

Can I also ask - if you are not going to listen to anyone, as you say, why bother asking our opinion?  That now makes me think you are not as mature as I thought.
