- Based on my experiences I think it just depends on the person. I was raised with the television constantly on in my house and now I am 20 and don't watch TV at all, but my brother (14) watches all the time and says he can't live without one. I have a friend who was raised without a tv in the home and he now watches all the times. So, it seems to me it just depends on a person's likes and dislikes.

Name : Amma, Gender : F, City : Tampa, State : FL Country : United States,I think if you look at it from a biological point of view then a woman who is fertile is sexy. I mean, that is the driving force behind sexuality. (Which I think too many people tend to forget!) We subconsciously choose mates who are best able to impregnate us or bear our children. It is my understanding that a woman is most fertile before the age of around 27 or so and after that her fertility declines by over 50%. So, from that point of view a woman would be most desirable to a man at a younger age. But, of course I'm sure there are other personal ideas of what you find sexy from your personal experience. So, fertility is only a part of it, but it is a large part.User Detail :
Name : Amma, Gender : F, City : Tampa, State : FL Country : United States,I just want to add that another way a minor can become emancipated before 18 is to get married. I know it varies by state, but in Florida if you are 16 or 17 you can get married with your parents permission. And I know that if it's a girl and she's pregnant then the rules are a bit different. (And I also want to add that I do not recomend getting married at such a young age...believe me!)User Detail :
Name : Amma, Gender : F, City : Tampa, State : FL Country : United States,It may be your opinion that these clothes are unappealing and unsexy. But, from the time I became a teen these clothes have been in style and most of the guys I met wore these styles. I never had the idea in my head that it was unattractive. To me it's always been normal. And now I'm completely used to it and I actually find these styles more attractive than others. I think a guy wearing tight jeans and/or 'preppy' clothing looks very unappealing. To me, the sexiest thing a guy can wear is a pair of baggy jeans. Though, I will admit, I'm not too fond of the look of showing half your underwear. I like the baggy jeans, but I like them to stay at the waist.User Detail :
Name : Amma, Gender : F, City : Tampa, State : FL Country : United States,I see that they are many different factors deciding if a person is ready for sex. The most basic one is biological; if you've gone through puberty then technically you are ready for sex. It is unbelievable to me that governments think they should be able to tell a person that even though they have gone through puberty they can't have sex. If we weren't meant to have sex until we are 25 then we wouldn't go through puberty and have sexual urges until that time. Our society is what has made us think that we have to wait and has created the other factors that play into being ready to have sex. Humans have created this society where we have to be educated and working 40 hours a week to survive. So now that has become a factor in it because we have to be able to make money to take care of children. And I think our society is what creates the factor of emotional readiness. We now have complex social relationships and are told that we are not ready for sex until we are adults. If a person is treated like a child until the age of 18 then they very well may act that way. So, in my opinion the only real factor in sexual readiness is if our bodies are physically ready. All other factors are created by society and its' moral and religious beliefs.User Detail :
Name : Amma, Gender : F, City : Tampa, State : FL Country : United States,I don't know about all older people but I do know what I've heard my 91 year old great grandmother say. She says she has always loved sex. And she kept having it up until like 5 or 10 years ago. She never mentioned any problems with her own body, but she said the only reason she stopped was because her boyfriend couldn't perform anymore.User Detail :
Name : Amma, Gender : F, City : Tampa, State : FL Country : United States,I agree with the person who said it's just a style like the bellbottoms and skin tight jeans of past. I have no idea where or why it started. But, I have realized something about it. This particular style has been in since I became a teenager. So, all the guys I dated wore baggy jeans. Now that look is what I find appealing and sexy. I think it looks gross when guys wear tight jeans. So, I've been wondering if I will always find that style appealing. I'm thinking that people form their ideas about what's attractive as a teen and stick with them throughout life. Anyone have any ideas about that?User Detail :
Name : Amma, Gender : F, City : Tampa, State : FL Country : United States,I don't think that could ever work! That would be like telling a bird they aren't allowed to have babies until they pass a class on how to catch worms. All life has the instinct to reproduce. How could you limit that? We already have so many of our rights taken away by our societies and governments! Reproduction is a natural right. You have the right to breathe and eat and reproduce. Those are our most basic rights way before the right to bear arms or vote. Nobody has the right to tell you that you cannot breathe or eat. So, why should anyone have the right to limit anyone's reproductive rights?User Detail :
Name : Amma, Gender : F, City : Tampa, State : FL Country : United States,I think it is most important that the students are doing well in their studies. If they are learning, then who cares what they are wearing? I think that everyone is a unique individual and people should accept people for who they are even if they do wear raggedy clothing.User Detail :
Name : Amma, Gender : F, City : Tampa, State : FL Country : United States,I learned mostly from my peers. I remember being in 3rd grade at lunch and all the kids were talking about sex. I remember I also looked it up in the dictionary. LOL! Of course, that didn't say much! I know that I didn't know what a penis looked like until I was in 2nd or 3rd grade and I saw the instructions from a package of condoms. I remember being shocked and in disbelief. LOL!User Detail :
Name : Amma, Gender : F, City : Tampa, State : FL Country : United States,In my experience I showed respect to the elders that I felt deserved it. For instance, my grandmother was a very sweet woman and always treated me well and showed me respect. My mother, on the other hand, did not treat me well and did not show me respect. She didn't respect my privacy or feelings. She treated me like a nuisance and a slave instead of a child who was her daughter. So, I saw no reason to give her respect. Now that I am an adult I can see that it doesn't solve anything to disrespect people. But, I also don't have to put up with how my mother treated me anymore. I do not think children should be taught to look up to and respect a person just because they are older. Age does not automaticaly mean maturity or wisdom. Just because you've been on this planet longer does not mean you are better or more intelligent or kinder than anyone else. There are older relatives of mine who always say that I am more intelligent than them, and they think it's wonderful. They like to learn from me. But, I know that my Great Grandmother has a lot of experience that I can learn from. So, what I've learned is...we should show respect for everyone unless they prove themselves horribly unworthy of respect (like if someone abuses you) and even then we should remove ourselves from the situation instead of disrespecting them. But, a child cannot always get away from people who do wrong to them. So, I think it is expected that children will disrespect some people. You just have to hope that they learn from it. I think there are a lot of adults out there who could learn to show a little more respect for children. If children do not experience respect, how can you expect them to be respectful?User Detail :
