Talking about Sex

So when a freshmen takes his first step onto a college campus, he notices a lot of new and exciting things. If he lives on campus he gets to experience the joys of having a roommate, making his own decisions, and so much more. However one of the choices a freshmen gets to make when he enters college is whether or not he chooses to partake in the act of sexual intercourse. Many first year college students often feel the pressures of sex. Whether to engage in the act, to jump in to it quickly with a boyfriend or girlfriend, or to really use the internet to look up someone before you consider engaging in the act with them, sex is a major pressure on the average freshman.

Many freshmen often feel pressured right away in college to find a girl or boy to have sex with. The modern view is that you don't want to be a virgin in college. Why many people son't understand, but that holds true to most college freshmen. They feel as if the only way to grow up or really express independence is to do exactly what most parents told their children to stay away from which is sex. Whether a student decides to have sex is totally up to them, but the main thing is to make sure that both of the students are ready and protected when they are about to engage in sex.

Some people also believe that they need to jump into a relationship just for sex. They feel like they need to have a girlfriend or boyfriend so that they can justify the use of sex. Students say that they feel so "strongly" or "love" someone so much that they can't express their love any other way then through sex.

Facebook and Google are also often used just so people can see whether a person is "hot" or "DTF" (down for sex). They look up people they are interested in and almost become a kind of cyber stalker. The internet can be used to talk to these people and establish a relationship with them but most times it is used to just check out the next prospective or hopeful sex escapade.

So my honest advice to those who will be attending college anytime soon is to make sure that you and your partner are both ready for sex. If you and the person you are with both give consent and are protected, then sex can be a very enjoyable experience. There is nothing wrong with sex and one should not feel ashamed for having it, but everyone needs to make sure that the people they have sex with are ok with everything and that they can cope with whatever happens next.
