You should first have sex when you're emotionally ready, and mature enough to protect yourself. It's truly a personal choice. And it's not as big of a deal as many people are saying. So I'd say any age between your set ages, since people mature at different times. I personally think that telling someone they should only wait for marriage to have sex is crap. If that's what *you* choose, fine, but if you don't, then you shouldn't be condemned for it. Sex is a totally natural urge, and shouldn't be repressed, *as long as you're responsible*.
I lost mine at 15 to someone I wasn't in a relationship with, but I was emotionally ready, and used condoms. I've only had 4 partners in my life (including my husband), and haven't had any STDs or unwanted pregnancies as a result of being mature and taking care of myself.
So my advice is to really think hard about where you are in your life. Also, prepare yourself in every way you can. Planned Parenthood clinics offers classes on sexual health and birth control/condoms, usually free. And it's confidential.
Again, this is totally a personal choice that only you can make. Just please, PLEASE be smart about it, and use protection!

Do you mean when? As far as I'm concerned I'm not going to pick an age because I didn't wake up one morning and say oh, now I'm fifteen, I better be looking around to lose my virginity. I didn't even lose my virginity by 18, I was almost 20 years old. This was because I had a LOT of long term relationships in my teen years with some pretty jerky guys and realized when I was with them it wouldn't be worth is to me to lose my virginity to them because they wouldn't value it! I finally found someone I knew was the one and the ONLY person I have ever slept with is my husband. So I think when people plan it or what a specific date that doesn't work. It is individual for each person.

When you should lose your virginity has less importance than with who you're losing your virginity to. If you say between 14 to 18, then I'd have to say 18, but I'd even suggest you wait even longer. Yes, I know that sounds old-fashioned, but please don't be so rushed into this. Once it's gone, it's gone. If you are not careful, chances are, you'll be sorry about it. I have a feeling this is not the answer you're looking for, but there's so many things that can happen when you're rushed into something like this. A broken heart is the very least of them.

You cannot simply pick a year for this. I am old fashioned and think that you should wait for marriage, but even those who don't agree with that extreme would tell you that you can't simply decide that 18 is the age. 14 and 16 are certainly too young. Go talk to your mother.

You don't have to plan when you need to lose your virginity. You should only lose it to someone you really really love, someone you are sure of... someone who you will probably spend the rest of your life with. I was 21 when i lost mine, to the man i am with right now, and will be spending the rest of my life with... MY HUSBAND. I'm not saying that you should do the same thing. We all know that sex is a very sacred thing. You only do it to someone you really connect with, mentally and emotionally. But your virginity would be a great gift you can give your husband to be on your wedding night. Or not necessarily your wedding night, but to the person you will be spending the rest of your life with.

I'd have to agree with some of the other answers. There is no rite age, 14 is way too young. I'm old-fashioned too, so I'd say wait till your married, but if you can't I guess I'd have to say, do like I did and make them wait, if they respect you then they'll wait for you (till you're ready) for example, I used to make my boyfriends wait 8 months - if they couldn't wait they weren't worthy of me. I lost my virginity at 17 with my first true love (who waited the 8 months).
