Current Mood: | Re: how old should someone be before having sex? Minimum of 16, but it varies from person to person. The 25-year-old morons out there having unsafe sex with anything that lies still long would still be virgins if there was any justice in this world.  |

Current Mood: | Re: how old should someone be before having sex? Old enough to understand what they're doing and to practice safe sex. For most people that would be between 14-16 but it varies from person to person.

| Re: how old should someone be before having sex? 18 at least. The body at 16 isn't mature, the mind even less so. My feeling is, if you don't know how what you have works, can't speak about it without giggling if at all and don't want your parents to know, you're too young. |

Have you ever dealt with those kids??? They can't even say the word 'penis' without getting all embarrassed. Trust me, at 14 they do NOT know what they're doing. I worked with that age, they were engaging in sex play and clueless. |

I'd be willing to bet that 15 year old wasn't messing around. With the kids I worked with (and it was a public middle school, so all types of kids), it seemed that the lower academic ones were the ones most active. |

Isnt it a bit silly to say someone is so mature they know their not ready for sex because they are not mature enough?
I would say 16 the legal age at least were i am is reasonable but the thing is ultametly its up to them.
Its not always fair to judge by your own standards some people are just have more sexual desire than others.
I dont have kids but if i do i dont really want to have a relationship with them that means they have to humour me by lying. |
