I think 14 should be ok, if you are ready enough. Anyways, you get to learn something new at a younger age, why not?! :X

I think after you take a health class when they teach you about different sexually transmitted diseases and that way guys will wrap it up before they have sex.

In my country, it doesn't matter what age you are as long it's consensual and you're the same age. If you're uneven in age, you both have to be over 16 years old. Works out pretty well.I think 14 should be ok, if you are ready enough. Anyways, you get to learn something new at a younger age, why not?! :X
You say that like only guys should have responsibility for protection? How is that fair?I think after you take a health class when they teach you about different sexually transmitted diseases and that way guys will wrap it up before they have sex.

In all honesty, most people aren't "ready" for it until at least 25 (by American standards). You don't get out of a full education until the age of 18, and even then you can't get a good job unless you go to college, and so you're not even ready then until at least 22-23 years of age. And then you want to give it another 1-2 years so that you can actually find an occupation that's able to support not only you, but also your lover, and a child. Then you're actually ready to have sex. Keep your pants on pervs.

What, you think sex should only be used for reproductive purposes? It's also an expression of love - why should people have to wait that long?

i feel that 18 is old enough to begin having sex. that is the age when teenagers enter adulthood and are usually asked to start making their own life decisions and if they so decide and undestand what could hapeen then by all means they can.

The Space Pope's stance on sex:My stance is simple; if you are old enough to have sexual feelings then you are old enough for sex. You get those feelings for a reason, you know. Why, I remember having my first sexual encounter when I was barely a year old old, a hatchling really. Of course it was not consensual and it was by a rather confused seagull that tried eating me on the beach while mother was basking in the shade on a humid August day but I digress.GPs were deducted for this post, please read the rules! - Two Weeks

Im 16, i think 15 isnt a bad age to start having sex, but I think 16 is a better age to have sex.I know 13 year olds that have had sex, i think thats definatly wrong. But imo girls are maturing faster than they used to.

i would agree with you because at 18 you need to do it like get a wife some children like when its ok for you.Well my Opinion is 18, because I feel most people are then develop and ready to take on such a challenge...as for me when I have my own house, car and can take good care of a child if anything.....until then I'll keep masturbating

I think that the appropriate age is 21. The reason I think that this is ok is because you have had plenty of time to develop both physically and psychologically and because one is usually more mature than teenagers. As I am Atheist, I don't believe in the religious BS that you should be married first because many don't get married until long after the prime age to have sex, 27 years old. I also think it depends on the person, as there are many people less mature than their age and also more mature than their age.

You foolish humans put an arbitrary number and equate it as a safe time to have sex. Sex at any age where the body desires it can be risky, so saying that young children are more at risk is not a good argument. There are plenty of humans in their 40's who get knocked up and can't afford a kid, it's not just 16 year olds that do it. Also, applying a number and saying it should become a standard is ridiculous. Not everyone matures at the same time, at the same rate, or in the same way.This makes my blood boil, either that or it's too hot out today. I need more rotting logs to hang out in my yard. Well at least it's not as bad as my trip to Venus last year.

I agree that 16 is a decent age of consent.However, I do not think it should be illegal for two 15 year old's to have secual intercourse, as I don't see anything wrong with that.Of course, it is a good idea to keep an age of consent enforced to make it less likely for younger, less mature people to do so, which subsequently helps lower teenage pregnancies and the transmission of STD/STI's.

haha Brave New World has an interesting take on this i suggest yoiu read in on itanywaysits really hard to put a number on it.ive heard some of you talkign about 15 and then i think about what kinda person i was at 15... geeeezzzzzyeah i definantley was not mature enoughyou will know whne your ready jsut dont be dumb abotu what you do.as for an age of consent.... hmmm if i put a number on it itd prolly be 16 just because statuatory rape is ridiculous ( if your 18 and ou have sex with a 17 year old its rape, COME ON!!!!) girls mature faster than guys though so maybe we need a double standard lol

I love you, space pope.Anyway, I don't think it's anybody's place to tell other people when they shouldn't be allowed to have sex. So long as everyone involved is aware of what's going on and they're okay with it, then I think it's appropriate for them to have sex. I'm not saying they should be irresponsible about it, but if people wanna screw, they're probably going to find a way to do it anyway. Attempting to force them not to do so will probably result in some sub-optimal sex conditions; for example maybe they'll try and be sneaky about it so they won't buy condoms (because finding those is a dead giveaway) or something. I guess my point is that having as much information as possible about sex is important to understanding if you personally are ready for it, and age really shouldn't be a factor, but rather your ability to grasp the situation and make an informed decision about whether or not you really want to go ahead with it. Obviously a three year old can't make that decision, but the difference between a 16 and a 17 year old's ability to make decisions really isn't that profound.You foolish humans put an arbitrary number and equate it as a safe time to have sex. Sex at any age where the body desires it can be risky, so saying that young children are more at risk is not a good argument. There are plenty of humans in their 40's who get knocked up and can't afford a kid, it's not just 16 year olds that do it.

i'd say 16 would be the best choice but more so i believe it really should be at least more likely at 17 since your about to reach adult hood or least young adult hood.

I think it is appropiate to have sex when your 15 because it feels more good than being younger to do it I would do it tell I get tired or for the whole night.

I think it all depends on the maturity of the kids involved. I wasn't ready for sex at 15 but I know others who were adult enough to cope with the situtation. You can't go around presecuting such people for doing whats only natural.

i think it depends on the person, really... as long as the person is not like 12 or 13 years old that will be too young in my opinions!i think about 17-18 i will be able to accept. it you think you are more mature then a younger age is possible.like i said it is really depend on individual thoughts...

Sex should be fine, although I've seen serious relationships stuff up a guy in my school. That and any pregnancies while people are still doing their vitally important second education isn't really a good idea.

I personally think a person should have sex whenever their ready you can't really put an age for when its appropriate but of course having sex at a young age isn't too smart yeah of course u can brag that u got laid but you got to be safe you don't wanna be 15 or 16 and have a child

I can't say at what age exactly, but for me, I believe it's appropriate only after marriage. My religion goes against premarital sex, and I stand with the Church.
