Why is sex the only thing that adolescents are able to think about?
Seriously. Why can't we ever focus on anything else? Just the mere THOUGHT of someone doing anything even remotely sexual makes us all :crazy: and :rofl:. And suddenly, looking up various "terms" (*cough, cough*) on Wikipedia is high entertainment...

At least I wasn't the one who found an illustrated book on Tantric love in my mom's sock drawer yesterday. Nope, not me. NEVER me. *whistles innocently* :evilgrin:

Okay....So maybe I did. It wasn't like I read it or anything...

:rofl::rofl:

:crazy:/:evilgrin: <---------------Me right now.

Did I just create a sex thread?

:evilgrin:

21. Wow, back in th 70's I looked up "bad" words in the dictionary
like "poop" (part of a ship) "penis" (male organ) "tit" (type of bird)
Man, it was crazy! I could not think of anything but "sex" (Gender)!!!

5. I guess if thats all you can think of
you're having much better teenage years than I did

I was a lot more interested in drugs and drinking and morbid things. :)

6. Some people will tell you it goes away when you get older.
Pity those people.

11. I will.
I would think that it only gets worse when you get older. Or, it SHOULD only get worse.

:P

14. Well, the hormones kind of even out after a while.
Meaning you can do other things like work or read or grocery shop for quite a while before any kind of sex thoughts intrude.

And then, if you have babies and breastfeed, the hormones will actually run counter to your libido.

And you thought adults had it easy.

They LIE. It Never goes away. You just learn to hide it better.

Or you don't.

20. I'm not so good with the hiding it
Every day I thank random chance I'm not a guy, because with a girl it's not so obvious what I spend most of my life thinking about.

8. Actually, I was pretty weirded out by sex during adolescence
I didn't like the idea, it seemed gross to me.

In fact, I didn't actually think about sex much at all, until I fell in love in my 20s.

:shrug:

I'm not saying I'm a typical person, however.

12. Seems kinda weird, yeah.
Edited on Wed May-17-06 09:48 PM by WritingIsMyReligion
But not as weird as it could be.

Sometimes I really don't get myself...

:shrug:
