NSFW - Serious sex discussion

How did you come across the idea of sex and when?

As a kid of 5-6 years old, I would sometimes study myself alone in the bedroom, although it was nothing bad because of course I had no knowledge of sex back then. A few years later when I became 9 or 10, I went down to the basement of a relative's house with a cousin of mine and we decided to take a look at each other's private areas. It was the first time I got to see a female in the nude, but again, this was nothing dangerous. A little while after I found one of my dad's Playboy magazines and I guess it just went on from there.


If you could talk to your parents about sex in general, would you?

I'm very shy discussing this kind of subject to my parents, so no, I wouldn't unless I was forced to. We have talked it before, but that was years ago when I was trying to figure out what sex was. The way they explained things wasn't helpful much to me, I'd rather surf the web for all of the info myself - and I've learned a hell of a lot through Wikipedia, Sewers threads, etc.


Do you take your friends' experiences at sex with a grain of salt? Or do you let it influence your decisions about sex in general later in your own relationships?

I don't have too many friends, though I've listened to what they have said. Most of them are virgins - the one that isn't had a brief relationship but they split up later on, and thankfully there were no hard feelings from either of them afterward. Everyone has their own experiences and I'd rather not let theirs decide mine - I have enough of a conscience to know that 90% of breakups result in drama, and I really wouldn't want to have to endure that.


Is your religion a HUGE reason why the sex part of the discussion between you and your bf/gf is so prohibited?

I don't have a girlfriend, so I can't really answer this. Being a Christian, however, has shaped my viewpoint on the matter. I've had to attend several dozen sex ed classes and all of them have been telling me to wait until marriage before doing it - they gave out proof of this claim by telling us about personal stories of other people, and all of them ended up in either the guy or the girl (most often the girl) being depressed for several years due to having premarital sex and then breaking up afterward. So yeah, I'm going to wait until I can marry a girl until I decide to do it (there's masturbation in the meantime... >_>).

Jam it back in, in the dark.
