Hi Paul,

There isn't one, specific age where someone "should" start hooking up (or an age they "should" wait until). People are ready for sex at different times, so focusing on when you, specifically, feel ready rather than on starting to have sex at some arbitrary age, is the way to go. We even have a whole tool to help people do that: Ready or Not? The Scarleteen Sex Readiness Checklist.
And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.
