what age is "normal"?

Question

What is concidered a "good" age to loose ur virginity

Answer 1

As long as you're legal I guess. However, you should wait for the right time as opposed to trying to stage it.

Answer 2

There is no right age. The right time is when you are an adult, and can't get anyone into trouble with the law and less with your parents. It should be when you're ready to go there in a healthy relationship. Though it is always awkward to lose your virginity you want to do it when you're not feeling pressured to, with someone that even if it doesn't work out long term you'll look back and say you don't regret it. If you're not ready, which by asking the question I would say you're probably not and you are feeling pressure, then you are not in a healthy relationship. There are many who would say your wedding night, but I'm trying to give you some realistic advice. I regret how I lost mine, the horrible details you don't need, and I wouldn't wish that on anyone. The right time is when you're ready, you're legal, and with someone you care about enough about to not want to get them in legal trouble and who cares enough about you to wait until you say you're ready. Until then get to know yourself, so you'll know when you're ready. Read and study about human sexuality, how bodies work, and figure out your idea of romance. Ask people you trust if you have questions( not strangers online) Remember normal is a very vague term there are a lot of things that are"normal" and a lot that aren't. In most cases normal doesn't exist, it's very much a matter to each his/her own as long as no one is getting hurt. I know it is easy to get caught up in the moment, but when the moment is right it's not about getting carried away by your hormones, it's about love and trust and respecting yourself enough to weigh the risks against your desire and knowing what you want it to be like. It's your virginity, you only get one chance to get it right- or at least close enough to make it a good memory. That means not in the back of a van, or under the bleachers, or the janitors closet- it's your virginty and that derserves some privacy.

Answer 3

The number doesn't matter! The best time in your life to loose it would be when you're mentally and emotionally ready. I'm not necessarily stuck in the "wait until your married" box but marriage is proof that you're committing your entire self to the other person and I don't care what the "adult film" industry says, sex and love do go together and it doesn't get any better.!!

Go slow and make sure you're comfortable with yourself and the other person completely. You'll know when it's the right time.

Answer 4

Whatever age it is that you get married.

Before you start giving reasons why sex before marriage is not a sin, and that its the "norm" these days and everyone is doing it, please do some research.

I hope you understand the precious gift that is your body, and your virginity. Once you lose it, you will not be able to get it back. I am sure you are a beautiful person, and that you have lived this long remaining pure, and hopefully understanding how sacred the gift of your body truly is. Your future spouse will always be honored to know that this gift was an irreplacable and priceless one, that only he could have, that made your two bodies into one, united in Christ.

A poll has said that 40% of teen girls have lost their virginity by the age of 14. Before you consider this, be aware of the statistics. Women whose first experiences of penis-in-vagina intercourse happen before they are 15 are substantially more likely to have sexual partners who are 5 or more years older than they are. They are also substantially more likely to describe their first experiences of sex as being coercive. Their first sexual experiences are less likely to involve the use of contraception or safer sex practices than are the first sexual experiences of women who lose their virginity at fifteen or older. Women who lose their virginity before age 15 are at higher risk of unplanned pregnancy or STD infection.

I hope that you will have considered the risks, and weighed all the factors before you decide to have sex. I don't know you, and I don't know your situation. I am, however, glad that you are asking questions, and wanting to know more. And that being said, remember that if you ever have questions, it is always healthy to ask.

God bless you.

Answer 5

I was always told that it is a gift that U give to the special man in your life. If this seems like a good idea to U, then wait until he comes along. U will know, everyone does. If this thought doesn't appeal to U, then U do it when it happens naturally. There is no special right age, everyone matures differently.

Answer 6

That is something very precious, hold on to it as long as possible but if you must - make sure it's with the right person.

I would recommend you give it to the person you marry!!
Maturity and wisdom should be involved in this decision!

Answer 7

Well, there's no "good" or "normal" age. Legality isn't important either.

As long as you're within child-bearing age - which is usually between 12 and 45.

That's the best answer I have, sweety.

Answer 8

save it for marriage, and you'll never have any regrets. You will never feel used and guys will hold a lot of respect for you. You don't want to be a tease either, if you are going to save yourself for marriage be upfront about it, I don't mean you have to go blaring it around that you're waiting, I just mean don't lead guys on to thinking they are going to get something they are not.

Answer 9

When you get married! My husband & I both remained virgins until our wedding night. I was 19 he was 21.

Answer 10

when you are emotionally and financially (in case you get pregnant (girl) or get someone pregnant (boy)) ready. it's not cheap to raise a child. and believe me, no matter how careful you think you will be, accidents happen. if you are a teenager, forget sex for now. there are other things more exciting to do than having sex. don't fall in to pressure. self control and self respect. you are in charge of yourself and your body.
