I am thinking back to my own childhood and wondering "At what age does sex move from something that feels good and is fun to something that is part of a relationship with another person?"

Let me first of all put a huge caveat here. I am talking about folk of the same age group here, not a substantially older soul preying on a younger. I'm talking of the change from 'boys will be boys' and messing around, either solo or together, to a meaningful emotional experience with (or about) another person.

When do the giggles and blushes of childhood change to the sighs and longings of some sort of adulthood?

Even when one is young and in love, is the sex act simply mechanical for the buzz it gives, or is it emotional and intellectual as well? When does it change?

I have no real experience to answer this. I had sex solo for many years! I just had fantasies.

Frankly, we think such laws are silly. They do young people more harm than good. How can you possibly ask questions on a gay forum without coming out to your parents if you need consent?
So it is up to you. If you post here we assume that you are of legal age to do so or have consent if not, and we do not want to know any different
