Because when it s not and sex happens, it s rape. Adolescents are going to experiment with their sexuality. And although their urges are normal and natural, we must teach our boys to be responsible about their urges. Be straight with your boys about sex. They can take it.
Kids constantly receive powerful, confusing messages about sex on TV, in ads, music, and videos.
I have counseled many boys who initiated sexual advances not because they wanted to, but because their girlfriends or dates wanted them to. Sometimes, boys think that they d be considered queer or unmanly if they didn t get some.
