I would have to say 18, unlike at younger ages like 16 and 14, at 18 a person begins to feel like an adult, they begin to think to themselves in ways such as "I'm an adult now" and "thats something a child would do". That leads to more responsible decisions, and more appropriate actions. Also while you are a teenager you still have very little worries, and in this day and age, there is a lot to be worried about, which for some reason it seems kids do not care.

Age? Yuck. I hate having to base something that important on age. It's not like, when you turn sixteen (or whatever age you deem acceptable), you wake up and suddenly are in the mindset of, "Oh, okay, I totally understand the ins and outs of this particular subject, and I'm suddenly magically responsible enough to take anything and everything that could possibly happen. Oh, and I know how to prevent these things, to increase my risk of it (and thus avoid taking those particular courses of action due to my overnight maturity), and to know that the person I'm doing it with is just as magically knowledgable as me. Yay!" A person is ready when a person is ready. I don't think there ever was or ever will be a universal I'm-ready age.

In our society... mid to late teens. From a purely biological point of view, the end of puberty and the soon after. Its when both men and women are most fertile and since the main point of sex is pregnancy then the best time to have sex is when the best chance of pregnancy is. Back to the society thing, I think thats the time when people are most curious and if the mental maturity is there then sex should be fine. Although I do concede most people are not mentally mature even when they're senior citizens.

Theres not an exact age when you should have sex. When you feel youre ready and fully understand the risks and dont just have sex just to have sex cuz your a pervert like that then yeah go ahead. Some people mature faster than others.

You should start sex after you can support your own ass financially.

IMO, the appropriate age to start that topic is when you're above 25 years of age and when you're already working and ready to take the consequences... :laugh:

Age shouldn't matter as long as you are mentally prepared for its consequences. But generally, it would be around the mid-20's. I seriously doubt they'd follow such guidelines, though. :laugh:

i think both people should be mentally and emotionally mature before having sex. also they should be financially able to handle any consequences such as getting pregnant(whether it be abortion or supporting the child) or treatment for STDs. I feel people should wait until they have had a long term relationship before deciding to have sex the younger you are the more severe the consequences can be, therefore I feel somewhere over age 18 would be ok.

When you can take responsibility for your actions but at least after 21. It's just stupid before that and you will regret it for the rest of your life otherwise.

A couple of posts back someone said "When that person is ready to deal with the consequences". I completely agree - only when the person is mentally mature enough to understand and accept responsibilities for their own actions, should they be thinking about those things...............Geez I sound like my parents.................

This has nothing to do with how old you are. When you are ready, and only then.

I believe that it depends on the maturity of the person in question. Do they have a career? Will they be able to support the child? Are they gonna abandon the child? A person should be fully prepared for a child before having sex.

I personally think it varies depending on the people.I think 16 is a suitable age.I DO NOT think 15. When I was 15 I thought I would be ready at the time, but now when I look back on it, I am a completely different person now to who I was then,and you shouldnt have sex untill you have fully developed and understood who you are, how you handle things and how mature you are.That doesn't so much come with age, as it does come with lifes learning experiences.

im one to agree with you there, when i was 17 i thought i was more than ready, but looking back on it i doubt it was such a perfect time to do such a thing. I believe that yes age does come into it, and life experience, but also the point where the relationship is at. For a first time especially, both people must be at a particular point in the relationship to prevent either one from being emotionally scarred and keeping that in mind, i doubt a 15 yr old would ever be in such a position in the relationship. I also think gender needs to be taken into account. For a female, she is on the most part a fully developed woman by 16, and the next couple of years they go on to develop the adult mindset. Males however aren't generally fully developed men until they're 18 - 21 and THEN they start to develop an adult mindset. Sex is supposed to be for fun, but unless one can grasp an understanding of the potential consequences of doing so, one must keep their legs crossed...

A question that can confuses a lot people theses day. I have been wondering the same lately, but not anymore senses I found out by the government rules/ways that the right age to have sex with each other is simply like this... Anybody who's age 13 and under has that limit to have sex around that area. Age 14 to 18 pretty much for teens. HAHA. 19 and above, I wonder what is it like for a younger and older looking person to have sex with each other... not too concern about it. So thats the rules by the governement
