5. Fifteen minutes?
Does that include foreplay and the cigarette?

4. I was 11
please don't ask. It's not something pleasant to think about. I had to respond, because I know there are others that had things happen to them before they were ready, and I wanted to say I think it takes a great amount of strength to even be around. I'm proud of everyone who went through bad experiences when younger and came out of it a better person.

11. When I was 12...

...I was almost violated by a man in his 20s. Luckily, I could run faster than he did, but the experience made me deathly afraid of gays for quite some time.

Today, however, I honestly can call myself an ex-homophobe. Thank you, "Rocky Horor Picture Show" cultists of Manchester, Connecticut, for showing me the error of my thinking!

Mine wasn't a bad experience, just a learning experience.

20. Hey, don't feel too bad. At least you're not like me....
I'm 21 and still a virgin, and I also had the unfortunate circumstance of suffering through a negative experience in this case. I had an ex-girlfriend who took advantage of me and decided to eventually dump me for frivolous reasons. Don't feel too bad. At least your ex didn't break your heart. It's the worst feeling in the world.

22. It'll happen for you Little Bit
I was 15 my first time and up until the day it happened I didn't think I would ever get laid.

Piece of free advice. Don't be in such a big hurry for it to happen that you rush it and don't have the first time experience you deserve. There seem to have been a lot of regretful posts on this thread and you don't want that. My first time was amazing (because we took our time) and I wish that for you to kiddo.

29. You don't want to rush into these things
You will feel worse, not better, if you do this just for the sake of doing it. You have to take your time and find the right person. If you feel bad over a relationship that didn't happen, think how bad you'd feel over one that went this far and suddenly ended. People may be growing up sooner, these days, and that's not necessarily a good thing.:-(

13. 23 and I'm really shy!
not a prude so much as terribly shy!

As it turns out the guy wasn't worth it, we were divorced 9 years later. I hope to have better judgement in the future.

15. Actuallly, it kinda depends on what you call virginity
I put 21 because that's when I surrendered my straight virginity, but I was doing gay stuff way before that, but I didn't even really understand it was gay stuff.

16. ???
You didn't understand it was gay stuff?? What, did the older boys trick you into playing games of yank Mr.Winkie or something? Did you have a soap dropping fetich in gym? Please elaborate how you could be doing something "gay" and not know or "understand".

23. Yeah, pretty much
Remember, I thought I was straight at the time so I figured it was just "adolescent fooling around".

26. Damn....

<<He went to jail>>

I would fucking well hope so!

For the life of me, I'll never understand how any grown-up could possibly find a child sexually desirable, much less act on that impulse! Sick, sick motherfuckers.... :grr:

30. I don't know if we should count molestation as "sex".
It was criminal sexual contact, sure, but surely not a "sexual experience", right??

BTW, I hope the fuckin' fist-slipper rotted in prison.

31. I really shouldn't have mentioned it here ...
after all it is not appropriate to say "virginity" was lost here, and it's not within the spirit with which the original question was intended.

I shouldn't have put such a bummer on the question. I lost my "real" virginity much later. :)

Not exactly sure how I feel about this fact, but glad I have some company.

Totally unrelated: Woohoo! My 1,000th post. Boo-yah!

32. 13 (1970)
She was the best friend of my older brother's girlfriend. He said I wouldn't know what to do with it if I got it. He was, as it turned out, wrong.

I had a blast, BTW. No regrets here.

34. 18
While in college. I knew the girl for two hours. In retrospect I would rather it been a girl I cared about, someone who's name I could freaking remember at this point. But that is what happens when one sets out to lose their virginity for the sake of losing it.

36. I was 20...
I should have waited...but eh...you live you learn. And molestation doesn't count as you losing your virginity. It was something that was done to you. It wasn't something you wanted to do which is technically what losing your virginity is...the CONSENTUAL first time you had sex.

It was rushed, clumsy and filled with terror. The girl and I remained on fairly good terms, but we never did it together again. I'm not surprised.
