Yeah, the great things about starting "late" are:
you miss out on all those wonderful experiences like being a teenaged Daddy,
and STD's and all that stuff.
Gee, I feel SO deprived!
Damn, I wish my parents hadn't been so strict!
(That's sarcasm- in case you don't get it where you live)
And seriously- if you don't become sexually active until age 18 or 19-
you are still un-jaded and horny into your 40's.
It is unfortunate that people get all "sexed out" in their teen and twenties
-they are sad and worn-out by the time they get old enough to appreciate it!
JTP, I've been doing it for 38 years so far (I'm 52, you can do the math) and I have experienced no decrease in desire or performance yet. I have no biological progeny and have never contracted an STD. For much of that time I was a full time musician and
very active (total fucking horndog, truth be told). If I ever do experience a performance issue, well, they make a pill for that now don't they. I find it wildly unlikely that I'll ever experience any decrease in desire, but I
suppose anything is possible. You actually know people in their teens or twenties who think that they're "all sexed out?" Perhaps when they grow up they'll learn how to do it right. Perhaps not, really not my problem. I will agree that there are certainly people who have sex at what you consider an early age that are not ready to become sexually active, but I suspect that a
lot more never have a problem.
BTW, Gato, I knew about condoms around age 10 as well. I might have made some of JTP's water balloons at that age.
