IMO - Too much importance is put on virginity. Sex itself is just meaningless (but enjoyable ) friction. It can mean a great deal with the right person - but so can making out and holding hands. Intimacy is comes from the strength of relationship not the acts you perform or don't perform together.

Men don't even have a physical virginity and in the days of contraception and paternity testing women don't need their v plates to prove fathers are indeed the parent of their offspring (The original meaning of virgin is not about having sex, but about not being owned by a man, and IMO - that is the root of alot of religious importance stressed into the value of virginity - and a terrible attitude to take towards people and sexual relations, people are NOT things, you can't own them man !!!)

Virginity does has real value because of the emotional component of lovemaking for the first time - we remember our firsts and attaining the level of trust/drunkeness ;P to overcome our insecurities and make ourselves vulnerable in that way is an important milestone, and for that I would say don't jump into it with the first person you see today - but it's not so big a deal that you have to hold out forever.
I remember the first time I drove a car - that wasn't any worse an experience because I didn't hold out for a very good car or the car that I would be driving for the rest of my life No it's just an experience, and the enjoyable experience of driving my car today isn't lessened any by having other cars in the past.

There are too many romantic ideas floating about that inflates first time expectations - no matter how long you've waited or how much you love someone or how much you spent on the hotel room, it will not be a perfect moment - because perfection doesn't exist. Sex with a virgin, losing your own virginity and most comically of all - two virgins sleeping with each other is (a logistical nightmare ) does not have to be unpleasant but it will be the least pleasant experience - you've only got the novelty value of it working for you paired against your own nerves and the hype/expectations that come from society. If you're holding out for perfection then you're going to miss out on a lot of fun.

And some people are like 'woah woah woah - save it for someone who means something' - newsflash. It won't run out Sex is a renewable resource fellas And if you truly love your future partners you will have some experiences under your belt before you meet him/her - that way you're better equipped to please them, know how to be pleased yourself and also I've witnessed a lot of relationships crumble when the person who's never slept with anyone else but their current partner gets so curious about what they might have missed with others that they cheat or end the relationship.

If you have sex you're no more of a man, no less of a loser. All it proves is that you penetrated someone. My advice to thread - don't be douches about it and lie/trick/pay for sex it's not that big a deal, but if you can have it then don't be brainwashed by what society has to say you'll gain/lose from it - just have it and enjoy it in it's own splendid right

The whole "virgin" is blown WAYYY out of proportion, its sex, theres nothing fancy about it, its just sex, to believe that after the first time you've had sex you become a "man" is ridiculous. To me its not a big deal, people who care put too much time into believing what society tells them to believe. I wouldnt be worried or ashamed if i were you.

I remember when I had sex the first time... it was embarassing. My ex gf didn't know I was a virgin, but she said it was one of the most funniest moments of her life so I bet it was pretty awkward for her.

Now sex is just sex to me. It's not taboo or anything, but before I was scared because I didn't want to look bad or mess up.

Society made it seem like you have to do it, but you're not a loser if you don't have a GF or sex. Just enjoy your life don't let others tell you what to do...

I had sex first at @ 20 with my girlfriend, I didn't feel any more or less of a man (in of itself) before or after it. I loved her, and she did I.

So, yeah, although you might be pressured by friends or juvenile "norms" made up by 16 year olds, it all depends on yourself and how you handle it.

P.S. Angry make-up sex is so awesome

Not trolling or anything, but I love Southpark's take on things of adult nature:
What's the right age to try drugs?
What's the right age to have sex?

Seventeen.

But to get back on topic... sex in society is a scary thing, and children are brainwashed from the start that love and a perfect relationship is basically destined for young girls. Look at any Disney movie; each portrays some sort of perfect relationship, evil alternatives, etc. I think most sexually active people in there 20's have a distorted mindset that someone who's having too much sex has a problem, and someone who hasn't had sex, also, has a problem. I'm not saying I agree with either or, but I do think there's a point where people need to explore their sexuality. To conclude my thoughts, what's the proper age for sex and all of the above?

Seventeen.

sex is overrated, it's kind of like skydiving, it's exhilarating and wonderful and worth all the money and lead-up work for sure, but you wouldn't do it unless you had an abundance of free time or if you were just really enthusiastic/horny or if it were just more convenient. That's what sex is!

but DO look presentable and cute, because relationships with girls/boys are not overrated :3

This is easier said than done. Can you really say that you give no shits about what anyone thinks of you?


lol Easily. I shouldn't care about what people thinks of me when they don't even know me.

I lost my viriginity when I was 16. I'd say I am average in that sense. I also have to tell you that if you don't have sex, you're missing out on a lot. It's your choice of course, but really. A LOT.

Society peddles sex because sex sells. You are wise to notice its absurd prominence in our culture, and wiser still not to buy into it.

I applaud OP for saving himself.

Sex can be really amazing and really awesome but it can also be awful and regretful. In general it's overrated.

I can't tell whether the thread title means

"Sex = Original Poster in society?" or

"Sex = Overpowered in society?"

It could go either way.

First few times i had sex it was crap but then i stopped worrying and its so awesome. after your confident you will enjoy it every time it comes your way whether or not the chick actually tries

you know i think since u arnt religious u should consider getting a hooker. herpes just means they know what they are doing

edit: yes sex is definatly OP and im sure in many of our weaker moments we have considered paying for it ourselves.

the lengths some people go to for sex can be serverly financialy and emotionaly damaging (marrige lol)

Why would you ever regret having sex? Saving your virginity doesn't mean crap, it's not special. Sex itself isn't special. It happens millions of times each day, right now there's probably 300 million people secksing eachother.

If you are about 12. Once you start having sex, I dont think holding hands cuts it anymore tbh.

Having said that, I don't think there is any shame in not having sex until you are 20 or so. From that point onwards tho, no excuses imo its fun times so why not?
