Guys who don’t or have never had sex are “wimpy”
or gay.
The more you like & respect yourself, the easier it is
to abstain from sex.
If my boyfriend or girlfriend won’t respect my
decision to not have sex, I will find someone who will
respect my decision.
People who are virgins are unattractive and boring.
It is the man’s responsibility to set sexual limits.
There are other pleasurable sexual behaviors people
can engage in besides sexual intercourse.
It is harder for a teenage boy to say no to sex than it
is for a teenage girl.
Teenagers who choose not to have sex are proud &
responsible and have goals & plans for their future.
