[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP this is what I hear from my DS who has been in both pubic and private similar to your DS and he reports the same behavior at both a FCPS high school and a MD private. He has been having sex with his few girlfriends (as in monogamous relationship) for several years and had one period of casual sex as you describe as well (we tried to discourage that). He is a rising senior.   Girls are far more open to it than back when I was in school and oral sex seems definitely more prevalent today  - with condoms for boys.  DD on the other hand held off until college and has had only 1 boyfriend/partner thus far. It still runs the gamut but I'm not sure I believe the stats that it's less prevalent than back in the day.

I was just reading about the study -- worth noting that it starts in 1991, so I don't know if we can say teens are having less sex than they did 40-50 years ago, but rather that there has been a decrease in teens saying they are sexually active in the past 28 years.  It may also be that kids are not counting oral as "sexually active"?  Data is weird.

I'm just glad to hear that contraception has become less controversial.[/quote]
