When you think of men and sex, you may think that all men

care about is sex; if they're having it, who they're having it with,

and how often they are having it. Although it is partially true that

men “need” sex every 48 to 72 hours, there are also many sensitive

aspects regarding a males sexual status that people need to recognize;

especially for the teenage years.

Adolescence is arguably one of the most turbulent times in a teen’s life,

with all kinds of struggles, whether it be raging hormones or stressful school work. Most teens will end up making regrettable decisions due to lack of knowledge. Sex education needs to improve to provide teens with answers, so teens don't take it upon themselves to experience things and potentially make mistakes.


It is important to educate that although teens have a completely natural urge to have sex, they may not posses the maturity to deal with the mental, physical, and emotional consequences. The mental and emotional side of the story that boys deal with is often unheard and is most times shunned because boys learn that men are not supposed to show weakness, and are supposed to be masculine, stable, and independent. This is something males learn early in life, which affects how they deal with sexual matters.

Part of being responsible design is knowing that you can always talk to your parents about sex. They can give you important information and advice. If you are ever pressured to have sex or become uncomfortable, it’s always okay to say no, no matter how awkward it may be. Just tell your partner “sorry, but I’m not ready” and they should understand. ​

Be responsible before you are held accountable.
