[quote=Anonymous] Goodness, people, please don't oversimplify! It's insulting to these boys and girls. Some teen boys may seek to have sex above all things, not all. One father in our circle intimated that this is what he was like as a teen. Some don't. DH and DS have Asperger's tendencies, and DH, according to himself and his brothers, took a long time to mature in that regard. I expect the same will happen with DS. The interest in girls will be delayed by 10 years. And some teen girls are interested in boys, and some aren't. OP, if you think your daughter is not interested in boys just yet, then no need to explain in detail. But always be receptive to what is going on in her life, and strive for complete trust, so that when you feel the moment is coming, you can offer some guidance. Keep track of her girl friends, who are her greatest source of peer pressure: are they dating and perhaps going all the way? It's hard to be an involved father with a daughter in this day and age, when any male involvement with teen girls is seen as creepy. Trust is key to hold conversations with your daughter. [/quote]
