Deciding to have sex
Sex is loving experience between two people, something to cherish. The first time should be particularly special. Decide ahead of time when and what is right for you.
There is plenty of pressure on your people to have sex. TV and movies might make you think there is a lot you are missing. Remember, most TV shows and movies exaggerate. Don't feel pressured. Your sex life is your own business. When, with whom, and how you make to love are your choices. You have the right to say no any time you want. If you want to put it off until later, it's up to you to say what you want.
If the decisions are troubling you, take time to talk to an adult you trust: your parents, a friend, your nurse, your doctor, a school councelor, a religious leader. These things can usually be discussed privately. You have the right to ask in advance if your conversation will stay private. All health proffesionals must keep talks with patients confidential. They can't tell your parents what you've been talking about unless you give them permission.
Even if you're not yet ready to start having sex, it's important to know about safe sex. That way you'll be prepared to make good choices when the time is right.
