Have you not had sex ed yet, dear?
Let's see I had sex ed my freshman year of high school. My parents had to sign some waiver for me to participate in it. They go over the information with you, and then they show you all those nasty slides of STDs..Blech. Hopefully, you have health class before lunch.
I like this site for teens: http://www.scarleteen.com/
That site is very informative when it comes to sex. It also couldn't hurt to ask your older sister, cousin, or an aunt that you're close with. Very normal to be curious. In fact, the birds and the bess talk should be coming soon. My dad gave me the "Guys only want what's between your legs" speech. Informative, but a little much at 15. So If either parents are going to talk to you about sex, then I would request your mother.
Lastly, do note that the legal age of consent to sex is 16-18 varying per state. This includes any sexual act, even oral, or just "messing around".
P.S. When you do go to have sex, (when you're legal) I suggest being on a form of birth control and your partner wearing a condom at all times! It's best to take extra precaution in reducing your chances of an unwanted pregnancy.

Well first of all I advise you to talk to your parents because that's the best thing to do. But if you feel REALLY insecure take a walk around the seniors and talk to THEM, they took sex ed and they know ALOT more than you do.
