As a very horny 17 year old who hasn't even kissed a girl, there are few things higher on my list then having sex. I know it wont be all that great and after having sex it will drop down the list, but I still really want to lose my virginity >.>

I wouldn't know since I am still a virgin... but I will say I sometimes feel that I since I am at university that it should happen soon. Also I am sometimes scared I will have stage fright since it seems that the guy is pretty much in charge of making sure it is pleasurable for both parties. I may be wrong since I don't know much about it.
i no i guy and he was havin a pretty good night, has to be said, but she was just goin to give him a blowjob and the fecker couldnt get it up. we were all 16 at the time an just had a good laugh but then he told this one guy and then he told everyone. and i mean EVERYONE. EVEN THE TEACHERS. EVEN FATHER PJ!!!

Guys don't have a virginity. Nothing changes after the first time, we just have sex.

Actually, the average length of time from penetration to ejaculation in the UK is around 7 minutes 40 seconds, so being under that, in the UK, is generally low.
I see your Times and raise you

The main bit: "Most men ejaculate within a few minutes"

There is no definition of "a few minutes" within that article, and no statistics for "most", so what you actually did was show that it can be entirely natural for someone to last that long without having something wrong with them, which shows that I am correct.

Cheers :)

My question is simply, is losing your virginity overhyped?

Also, do the effects of peer pressure make you more likely to regret losing it prematurely?
Yes, and yes.

It wasn't great the first time around. In retrospect I would've rather waited for someone more worth my while. In fact, it was so unfun that it turned me off sex for a good two years before I could even consider it again. Luckily I now have a girl that taught me that sex is pretty awesome if you're comfortable enough with eachother and can communicate your wishes properly.

So in my opinion I'd like to say to any of you virgins outside: wait until you really like someone. :) Makes a world of difference. In fact you'll be surprised how level the learning curve is. To put it in terms all you big ol' nerds can understand: you'll be throwing supercombo's before you know it. *wink wink nudge nudge saynomore saynomore*

Losing one's virginity is mad over-hyped. I say wait until you're ready. Don't let social expectations force you into doing it.

I think first time sex is built up to too much. Sex in general is fantastic, really great. My first time I never though it was a big deal that I was a virgin, I was just excited because I really wanted it. I think it's just a memorable thinking back to my actual first time and then my first time with different partners. I think it's just as special taking your relationship to that level. Each person is different, they enjoy different things, you fit together differently, it's really lovely finding all that stuff out about someone you care about.

Then why post it in the first place? If the purpose of it wasn't to suggest that anything over "a few minutes" is actually delayed ejaculation, then there was no real point in posting it, as it didn't relate to my post (the one you quoted in your reply).

The point was that lasting a "long" time is not actually that uncommon during the first time

"distraction from worry, distraction from the environment, anxiety about pleasing his partner and anxiety about relationship problems."

its just as commmon as being too quick of the mark

Well, from a girl's perspective we're always told that our first time isn't going to be fun at all, breaking the hymen and all that... There's blood and it hurts but they tell you it's supposed to get better after that.

So no angels. No nothing really, just a lot of ouch.
Did it actually hurt for you though? Like, you'd never used tampons and stuff before? Or wanked or anything?

It didn't hurt me in the slightest. I was just wondering if it actually does hurt like people say because no girl I've talked to has admitted it.

Well my best friend did but she's the biggest wimp in the world haha
Hmmm. I just lost mine a few years ago to the woman that I'm going to marry. The first time, it was like, whoooo! We're doing it! So many other people have talked about it, and want to do it and I'm doing it! But then it was like, oh, now I have to move? F*ck. This is cardio.

My first time was ruined by an inconsiderably squeaky bed. It made it very difficult to finish up and that, combined with the nerves of the whole occasion, made it rather difficult to enjoy myself. That being said, it was still a glorious event and one which I have been happy to recant ever since. I do think that loosing your virginity is a fairly big deal even if it is just to give you something to brag about to your virgin mates for a while.

Ideal circumstances. Far and few between. Make sure you wear protection and don't lose it under the influence of anything. I've heard horror stories of how that has gone terribly. First time? It is very contextual and subjective how "good", "bad" or "meh" it is. If you don't want any regrets about the first time, then couple with someone you can trust/rely on. As far as I can tell, if you keep at it with one person you'll both figure out what the other likes and it'll get better or you'll find you two are sexually incompatable.

And for pity's sake: Protection, protection, protection. I hear (unwillingly at times) my friends' stories from time to time about pregnancy scares and all sorts of other unpleasantries because of a lack of protection. Hint fucking hint.

My first time was with a girl who was in a similar place mentally. Both had gotten out of a relationship, had some pent up frustrations, and needed a release. That was that, and we both knew it. Very "meh", but what I expected from it. No regrets

Being a student and therefore living in a dump, squeaky bed sex is all i have nowadays. So do do my housemates, so its best to sleep quick if theyre on the pull.
