Reply to comment by FLTDI in TIFU by punching a guy in the penis by Eldautor

First kiss at fifteen, but I’d been in brief relationships since middle school lol. Didn’t super explain the timeline well, but the moral of the story is that I wasn’t experienced, was hesitant towards intimacy, and took my time getting to a place of confidence sexually. Hope that clears up my timeline a bit.

Usually when people say stuff like this they experience their first intimacy in their 20s at the earliest, not at 16, which is probably not uncommon at all for “first experiences”, and I would argue it’s still a bit early.

At 16 you're not allowed to watch porn (legally), but somehow it's too late for OP

You’re totally right. My explanation contained a lot of insecurity because of high-school pressure, so while I felt behind, I was on a level playing field with most teens exploring their sexuality. My bad lol

Slightly behind by european standards. But not by much.

Damn. What high school did you go to where kids were sexually active that young?

Over 50% have had sex by 16. Going by that and my childhood experience. I assume alot of teens try something around 12 to 14.

So yea, no intimacy by 16 is weird.

Its an easy google search mate.

Ps. Having looked at more recent numbers, the average has jumped to 17 years, with only like 30 something % doing it by 16 years. I was likely remebering numbers i looked up 10 years ago.

Och we all had to start somewhere. It's a funny anecdote, put it down to inexperience and tell the story at parties, move on. So so much more to discover.
