  I think it very much depends on a person's maturity level, although under 16 seems a bit too young to me for anyone. Status >in want of arts

			            16, but even thats pushing it, I suppose it does matter with their maturity level.
  (I hate leaving just a one-liner in a discussion thread but I really have nothing else to say to that)

			            Maturity level is very important, and I agree that under sixteen is rather young.
  Because I think that people should only have sex with someone they love(which could be multiple people throughout their lifetime), the people involved should be old enough to have a basic understanding of love, rather than simply indulging lust.

  The things that's kind of scary is that now girls will get looked down upon a lot of the time by their peers if they still have their virginity at age 15! There were a lot of girls at my high school younger than me that lost their virginity before me!

			            When you feel ready. And you aren't one bit hesitant. 
  I do agree with the age 16 and up. Anything younger than that, and someone is most definitely going to get hurt, and was probably not prepared for what it is . . .

			            I'd say maturity level, because you can save someone who is capable of handling the emotional and possibly other consequences that is not of the age of consent.

  The things that's kind of scary is that now girls will get looked down upon a lot of the time by their peers if they still have their virginity at age 15! There were a lot of girls at my high school younger than me that lost their virginity before me! Wow. I hope that no one is offended by this, but honestly...that seems more than a little bit skanky. When I was 15, some of my friends slightly looked down upon me because I  wasn't a virgin. How quickly the times change.

			            Feline Anachronism Maturity level is very important, and I agree that under sixteen is rather young. Because I think that people should only have sex with someone they love(which could be multiple people throughout their lifetime), the people involved should be old enough to have a basic understanding of love, rather than simply indulging lust.  A little off topic but I wanted to say this. I understand your point of view on this but I don't share it. I believe that sex can be fun and recreational without an emotional attatchment as long as all participants agree on that last bit. Now on topic, I'm going to agree with most of you and go with 16 as a good marker. And that's not a hard line. Some 16 year olds just aren't ready for it but I've known the occasional 15 year old (and this is  very rare) that can handle it just fine. And with someone you love or not, losing your virginity is a experience that requires a certain emotional maturity to deal with in a healthy way.

It seems that most people end up with emotional attatchment, so I personally like to use the love thing as a general rule to avoid as much pain as possible. But yeah, if all participants agree that there will not be emotional attatchment, it isn't wrong for them to have sex; it's none of my business.

			            I wish people wouldn't put so much value to the whole "Virginity" thing,  It's like do you have it? Did you lose it? I don't know, maybe thats just me, but its not as great as its chalked up to be.

			            I'd say 16+. Of course, I have no room to talk, considering I was 15   sweatdrop   I believe it depends on the maturity level, but no lower than fifteen.

                        I think 17 and up is good.Maturity level plays a big part because if you are not careful you and your partner could end up with a baby.I was a teenage parent and it was hella hard.But I'm still with the father and we have two more children.Sorry a little off topic.But if you are going to have sex young be mature about it and be careful.  heart

I know a lot of people that ended up teenage parents and some of them really shouldn't have been having kids. Maturity level is very important when it comes to sex -you have to be willing to handle a consequence like having a child.

			            I would say not sooner than 17-18. Why rush? And I can see that people younger than that [and often even older than that] are too emotionally immature to maintain a serious relationship. But we probably can't put a firm definite line, like you people said everyone is different in their maturity level.
