All my friends make me feel awkward for not knowing these things and I'm embarrassed to tell them why. Am I weird to feel this way or is it normal. Someone help! :( Reply to this Question

I have a rejection reaction to everything sex, mainly because it's sooooo being forced upon all of us. I try to live minding my own goddamn business and no one has the right to flood me with sexual messages of all kinds on all kinds of media (TV, movies, newspapers, advertising).
Society's obsession for sex is sickening, really. To the point sometimes I wish sex did not exist at all.

 I lead a rather sheltered life an didn't really know a lot till we watched those sex/puberty videos in sixth grade where everyone laughed their butts off..then we got those mortifying goodie bags stuffed with tampons, massive pads, and this in depth anatomy guide. Actually, I think the guys got condoms in there's. Do they still have that stupid video? You know when I was your age they barely talked about sex in school, everyone was more concerned about, school spirit, homecoming, and sporting events. Nowadays, it's like 13-15 year olds are more sexually advanced when you should just worry about enjoying your teenage years. I think your absolutely normal (thank goodness you're not a sexually charged teen). Teens put way too much emphasis on sex, you've got plenty of time to experience it, and your first time hurts. When someone asks you about why don't you talk about it, just state that you really don't care to, you'd rather enjoy your time as a teen, who wants to accidentally get pregnant anyway, and you'd rather wait to do it with someone you love. Or you could change the subject to talk about homecoming week or the dress you want to get. Every girl regrets her first time, unless she's married to him but that's not too common.
