Despite what people say, there is no
"magic age" to start having sex. I began
at fifteen, and have never regretted it.
It depends mainly on your maturity level,
and that of your partner. If you are both
mature enough to handle the emotions that
come with physical intimacy, and are
responsible enough that you can deal with
any consequences resulting from sex (such
as std's and pregnancy), then i'd say go
for it. Generally, I would say that if
you aren't able to talk to your parents
about your decision to have sex, and ask
for their help in getting birth control
(condoms or pills or whatever), then you
really don't think what you're doing is
right. And if you think it's wrong, then
it is!
