yes, I think so.
advertising and the media and friends mostly cause the pressure I think.
I think many people have a bad or just boring nothing of a first time because they rush it. Or are pressured into it.

Wait a sec, you didn't define "sex early!" Of course everyone is going to agree with you.
Is 20 years old too early? How about 17 or 15 years old?
In any case, you do have the real question and that is too much pressure in our culture.
My response is: the body is ready at around age 13.
Up until 100 years ago, it had been common for six thousand years for a bride to be 13 years old. Shocking to us today, I know.
This means to me that it is ALL cultural. Then we must look at a shift in our own culture to a younger age than what was established in the prior generation.
Now we can have a discussion -- is the current youth culture regarding sex serving our upcoming generation?
To this, I would say no. There is some hip-hop "whore culture" that is running through the teen-agers right now that I find offensive personally and revolting on a social scale.

It truly has become absolutely ridiculous how young kids are today wanting and having sex . They have no idea what this
life is all about ! Nor do they have a clue how much harm they can cause themselves and others by SCREWING around with fire . I was 16 yrs old and I now realize I was only a baby . I have heard of so today a young as 9 . Barely out of diapers !

Well lets see. The media hypes sex , like the tobacco industry trys to glamorize cigarettes. I'd think it is safe to say so. This is a person choice. Do not listen to other people or pay attention to the world view point. Go with your brain and yes your heart.Best of luck, what ever u choose.

Yes. I think so. Barring any religious answers, as you stated, I think there are so many "children" having sex. They don't have any respect for their bodies or realize the implications of what they're doing. They have no idea what real love is. It's very distorted and sickening.

The sexual activity rate in teens has probably increased steadily over the past few years. Thanks to rauchy music videos, lack of parental guidance, and the media, teens and young adults feel that it's a necessity to have sex at an early age.

Wow there is a topic I forgot all about - getting old I guess?
Yes I think so and I think for a lot of the time sex is vastly overated but it sells - everybody is interested

Yes.....look at the movies, ads, TV, internet, and life. There is so much sex everywhere you look, and the pressure to have it.

I don't think it's pressuring a certain age. Every age, race and gender gets pressured.
