Dear Alice,
I am almost nineteen and a virgin. I have had the opportunity to have sex, but have been holding out for that special person who I know exists somewhere. Sometimes I feel like a freak, though, like I have a problem. Should I just give up the wait, or give in to my hormones?

Dear Virginal,
This is a question that only you can answer for yourself. There is no right or wrong age to lose your virginity, and while you may think that every other nineteen-year-old is sexually active, it is not the case. At other times in this century, premarital chastity was the norm, and many did not marry until their thirties, if at all. While your inexperience may be atypical in the nineties, it is not abnormal. You need to decide for yourself when, with whom, and how you will have your first sex. There is no judgment, but from yourself, upon any aspect of this future experience. Do what seems "right" to you.

If you're not ready, your boyfriend should respect you. Individuality is good. Being confident is all you need. You don't have to tell everyone you're a virgin if you're not comfortable talking about it.

Dear Virginal,
Nothing shameful about being 19 and a virgin. I actually commend you for it because it means you are making the mature decision to wait until you are ready instead of jumping in the sack with the first person available.
Good for you.
