It’s smart to take stock of what your expectations are, and give them a reality check. Talk to a friend who has had intercourse or other genital sex who is really honest with you (or an older sibling or family member) about what you expect, and listen to their own experiences. Gather diverse perspectives: one person’s sexual experiences can often vary a lot from those of another.
The truth is, if you have a list as long as Santa’s of sexual expectations, it isn’t very likely they’ll all be met. Sex is often not what we expect, whether the difference between our expectations and reality is positive, negative, or just another ball of wax. Often — with sex or anything else — the less we expect, the more we often receive. Intercourse or other genital sex isn’t a miracle cure for anything, and it isn’t always a fireworks show: it can be a wonderful, natural affirmation of intimacy, and an excellent physical and emotional experience as long as you’re ready for it and take it at face value, without romanticizing it or imagining it to be something it is not. The sex you have with someone else tends to be a mirror of your relationship: if your relationship is lousy, the sex within it isn’t likely to be better or to improve the relationship.
Some studies show that a good 30% of people never have sex again with the partner they lose their virginity (which is defined in those studies as vaginal intercourse, so your mileage may vary) to. Only about 25% of women usually report enjoying first intercourse, and less than 8% report orgasm from first intercourse. Those bummers most likely had to do with being ill-prepared in general, simply not knowing the basics, both partners not being equally invested in one another, and overall, with unrealistic expectations: in other words, they were not about something being terribly wrong with people, but about people’s expectations being out of whack. The cultural idea that the first sex is the best sex is almost always off-kilter: sex is one of those things that tends to improve for people over time; which gets better with time and experience, rather than starting off perfect and fantastic and either staying there or getting worse or boring.
Am I really prepared to handle all aspects of intercourse and/or other genital sex?
There’s a lot to juggle; probably more than you think. Here are what we see as the basics for what we usually need materially, physically, emotionally and interpersonally for partnered sex to be enjoyable, safe, physically gratifying, and emotionally sound.

If it’s for you, and your partner as well as you: fantastic. But if it is for someone else primarily, and not for yourself — or JUST for yourself — stop now. Other people, just like you, have hands and fingers. They know how to use them to get off, and you can rest assured they’ve been using them long before you came along. Sex with someone else shouldn’t just be about self-gratification; that’s what masturbation is for. If your friends are saying you should, with no understanding of your relationship, or your own needs, they’re being crappy friends. A lot of friends who pressure their friends to have sex do so because they don’t feel all that good about their own choices, and want to hide behind endorsing sex to make themselves feel better. Tell them to carry their own baggage, not try and pass it off on you.

If either of you wants to do it because you feel you must or should, because one of you is pressuring the other, you’re getting pressure from friends, or if you’re having troubles in your relationship and you think sex will fix it, take a biog pause right there. Sex between people should only happen when it is what both people very enthusiastically and actively want it, and not just because they think it’ll make the other person happy (or get them to stop nagging). Another thing to give you pause might be if you’re fantasizing about sex based on movies or television. Remember how in Tom and Jerry cartoons, Tom could hit a wall and walk away from it just fine, and you knew that wouldn’t work in real life? Same goes with a lot of sex in movies and television; it isn’t often as it appears.
On the other hand, if you’ve been with your partner long enough (whatever that means to you) to feel good about considering sex with them, feel a strong desire for sex yourself, and have a solid level of other sexual experience (including kissing, petting, masturbation); you feel you can trust yourself and your partner with limits; if you’re looking to explore your sexual relationship responsibly and sensitively, and for some greater intimacy and sexual exploration with no notion any certain result — positive or negative — is guaranteed, and you’ve got a firm grip on reality, read on.
I’d also suggest checking in with yourself to be sure that sex is what you really want from sex. In other words, take some time to think about what you’re looking for in having sex with someone else, and that what you’re seeking really is sex, rather than, for example, more general physical affection, personal validation, a way to cement your relationship, some kind of risk when you’re feeling stagnant in your life, friendship or other things that certainly can be aspects of sex, but which sex might also not really tend to or be the best choice to address or accomplish.

One of the biggest misnomers about partnered sex is that vaginal intercourse is “going all the way,” is the only “real” sex, and is some sort of final goal to sexuality, which is unfortunate… and untrue. It’s also untrue that heterosexual, vaginal intercourse is the only sexual activity which presents the possibility of both or either physical and emotional risks.
This idea has contributed to a whole lot of confusion and disappointment for many who have first intercourse or any other kind of first-time sex, and wonder where the fireworks and trumpets were, or why it wasn’t all they thought it would be. Even when we’re not talking about heterosexual vaginal intercourse, any kind of genitally-interlocking sex is often framed as “taking it to the next level,” even though in plenty of relationships, or for plenty of people, that may not be any sort of “next” or “higher” level at all, especially if one or both people involved really aren’t and don’t feel ready. It can be a big shocker to presume a sexual activity unrisky and then discover you’ve got a sexually transmitted infection, or feel some heartbreak from something you thought had nothing to do with your heart at all. Too, some of all that hoopla about why intercourse is THE sex can have to do with the fact that it’s often where the greatest risks are taken.
To have any kind of sex be important and satisfying, and as good as it can possibly be, anticipating, recognizing and managing those possible risks — both the wanted and unwanted ones — is a big help.
If you’re considering having any kind of genital sex — manual sex, oral sex, vaginal sex, anal sex — for the first time or for any time thereafter, there are a bunch of things you and your partner should know and evaluate, especially with an activity like heterosexual intercourse, where pregnancy is an additional risk. The best sex is pretty much always the sex everyone involved really wants and is earnestly ready for. So take stock, see where you stand in terms of a readiness ideal and get real!
A Reality Check Quickie
Intercourse or other partnered genital sex will not necessarily do any of the following for you or your partner:
* Guarantee a longer-lasting or closer relationship than you already have
* Give you or them an orgasm, or mind-blowing, earth-moving pleasure
* Feel great the first time, or feel like the ninth circle of hell, either
* Give you increased status or importance with your friends or partner
* Make you more mature, or grown-up, or a “real” man or woman
There’s a lot to think about when deciding if it is right for you and your partner to have vaginal intercourse or other genital sex for the first time. Here are a few basic questions to ask of yourself, and to ask of your partner.

Are you:
* Suffering from anxiety, stress or depression, or having unusual physical symptoms, such as stomach aches, insomnia, changes in energy levels or appetite, a sudden drastic increase or decrease in sexual drive, or other physical symptoms that are not caused by an existing condition or illness?
* Putting other important relationships or goals of yours at risk because of your sexual relationship(s)?
* Taking risks which put you and yours in a position of sexual, physical or high emotional risk, or feeling you must make many sacrifices to have or maintain the relationship?
* Feeling isolated from everyone BUT your partner, or having trouble thinking of others outside yourself and your partner(s)?
* Discovering that other important parts of your life are taking a backseat to your sexual relationship(s) or suffering (your grades, your job, your family, etc.)?
* Feeling sad or upset with sexual relationships or encounters far more than you find yourself feeling happy?
* Feeling you must keep sexual activity, tension or issues high and escalating to maintain the relationship, using sexual activity to avoid or diffuse relationship conflicts, or, finding that you are “zoning out” during sexual activity?
* Becoming unable to be autonomous and have a life and sense of self independent of your partner or a sexual relationship?
* Feeling bad about yourself in general, or specifically in regard to your sexual relationship or behavior?
If you’re experiencing any of these things, I’d suggest you find at least one person who is not your sex partner to talk to about the situation who you feel can be objective, maybe a friend, maybe your clergy leader or a teacher, maybe an aunt or uncle. Take some time alone, too, to really look at how you’re feeling, and seek out trouble spots or conflicts. Talk to your partner as well. Making a reality check with someone else and yourself, then talking to your partner, is pretty vital and a good management tool. Things like those listed above may be a signal that your sexual relationship or behavior isn’t healthy and balanced, or is doing you harm. And checking in with that possibility now and again never hurts.
It’s important to remember that when we get involved sexually, we are taking risks — physical and emotional — no matter what. There is no such thing as a no-risk sexual scenario, no matter your age or situation. We take the risk of having our hearts broken, of being disappointed, of STD/STI transmission or pregnancy, of conflict over our sexual choices with friends or family, of finding out things about ourselves or our partners which may change our feelings or lives, amongst other things. Sexuality involves very deep intimacy and feelings and when we explore those feelings, we take risks.
That isn’t to say that all risks are bad to take, and on some level, in order to also discover things that ARE healthy for us, that are beneficial and bring us joy, we do have to take risks and chances. That’s the case whether we’re talking about a sexual relationship or scenario, or trying out for the school basketball team, applying to colleges, or getting your first apartment. But taking risks which we know or suspect are foolhardy, which are more likely than not to harm us or others, or are grossly negative, is risking too much for too little, and sometimes for all the wrong reasons. Again, sex need not be harmful or hurtful, and can be a very positive and wonderful thing — and when it is not, it may be because we are creating or continuing the situations and environments which make it negative for us and others. We all need to learn to avoid doing that, to be mindful of it, if we want our sexual lives and relationships to be healthy, happy and of real quality.
And isn’t that what we all want? So, go on and take a big risk — the risk of handling sexual relationships with care, love and patience, and with your whole health and well-being — physical and emotional; personal and communal — at heart.

It’s hard to arbitrarily say what the “right” and “wrong” reasons for sex, sexual activity and sexual relationships are, because that differs a lot from person to person and relationship to relationship. We all have our own sets of needs, priorities, desires, goals and aims, and unique relationships.
But there are reasons for having sex that simply are a recipe for disaster, for emotional upset on all sides, for disappointment, hurt or which just aren’t reasonable or fair to you or to a partner. Some of those are:
* Being sexually active primarily because others around you are sexually active, and thus, you want to fit in, or because someone is pressuring you.
* To try and fill a void as far as self-wroth, esteem or confidence with sex.
* To try and “trick” or manipulate a partner into giving you something you want (such as a relationship commitment) with sex or the promise of sex.
* To avoid being alone or to feel less lonely by having a sex partner or partners
* To get attention from parents, friends or others, to make another person jealous or envious, or to force a reaction from someone by being sexually active.
* To “prove” one is an adult to someone by showing one can have sex.
* To create conflict or upset via sexual choices, activities or relationships.
* To take a sex partner when one simply wants sexual release for themselves akin to masturbation.
* To become pregnant without consulting a partner in an effort to try and keep that partner.
* To find out, in action, if you’re ready for sex or not.
* To “just get sex over with.”
* To “prove” love or care to a partner, or to try and impress someone.
It’s not always easy if we are sexually active for the wrong reasons to see what we’re doing, and that we ARE doing it for the wrong reasons. More often, we figure that out in hindsight. That’s why it’s so important to really be as self-aware and as honest with yourself and others as you can, and when you have feelings of doubt, hesitation or anxiety, to take the time to stop and really look at them. It’s also important to be kind and fair with yourself if you discover some of your reasons for being sexually active are wrong, unfair, unkind or just unrealistic — it is a situation pretty much all of us have found ourselves in at least once (and often more than once). It happens, and it is okay, so long as we do become aware of it, and take steps to remedy our errs when we have that awareness.
And in stepping back from those mistakes or errors, we may find we or our partners get hurt in the process regardless: we may have to stop a relationship, or pull back, or spend some time alone, or set aside things that we liked doing or having a lot.

We talk a lot about sexual safety and safer sex here at Scarleteen in terms of your physical health. But what about checking in to see if sex is safe for you and yours emotionally? Taking care of your emotions, looking out for risk factors in advance — not just when they become an existing crisis — and safeguarding yourself, your partners and those around you from needless hurt and harm is just as important as doing what you can to prevent STIs and unwanted pregnancies.
Sexuality and sexual partnership is more than just physical, even when it’s casual — it involves our feelings and thoughts as well, and those of our sexual partner.
It seems that a lot of what we hear in terms of safeguarding our emotions — if we hear anything at all — in regard to sex (and remember that here at Scarleteen, when we say “sex” we mean any number of sexual activities, not just sexual intercourse or heterosexual sex) is that either sex is okay, or it isn’t, and we just shouldn’t engage in it if we don’t want to be hurt or hurt others. Or, that only sex within marriage is safe emotionally, but that simply isn’t so: people are no less likely to become hurt by sex within marriage than they are outside it, especially if high divorce rates and spousal sexual and other abuse rates are any indication. To boot, marriage is neither an option nor a goal for everyone.
Only seeing general, binary options — to either have sex or not to — doesn’t help us an awful lot, or give us food for thought to determine what may be risky sexual behavior for any of us when it comes to our hearts, minds and the quality of our relationships and sexual life. Sex is not something that need be hurtful, or that we have to avoid so as not to get hurt or hurt anyone else. When entered into with a solid basis of self-awareness, empathy, care, good judgment and an arsenal of accurate information, sex has no more the capacity to hurt than anything else in life, and has the capacity to be something wonderful, empowering and beneficial.
Just like using condoms, gloves and dams, and having regular sexual health care is preventative medicine to do your best to stay physically safe and healthy; being on the lookout for high emotional risks, hurtful or unrealistic situations, or potential sexual and emotional trouble is preventative medicine to stay emotionally healthy, and help those you’re involved with do the same. It’d be silly and shortsighted to only give information on a sexually transmitted disease after one already has it, or to avoid looking at what we could do to lessen the likelihood of getting one in the first place. So, think of the following pages as preventative medicine for sexually transmitted infections of the emotional variety. If you get informed, keep a watchful eye and protect yourself and those you care for from the very start, you’re much more likely to remain healthy and happy and sexually well, above, as well as below, the waist.

Herpes is a virus that can be spread very easily. It is a virus that can spread from person to person through skin to skin contact, and it can end up appearing on many different areas of the body. Herpes is marked by an eruption of a cluster of blisters, and although you will usually notice an immediate breakout, some people do not break out at all.
In fact, you may have herpes and not even notice it for quite some time, so you really need to pay attention to yourself and watch out for these sorts of symptoms.
Herpes and Pregnancy
If you have herpes and are pregnant, there is some information that is important for you to be aware of. Herpes and pregnancy, the thought of it together, may frighten some people, but at least when you are more educated you are going to be more understanding and will know whether herpes and pregnancy is going to be a dangerous combination for you.
Even if you have herpes and are pregnant, chances are that you will give birth to a healthy baby. One of the biggest worries that pregnant women with herpes have is that they will end up passing the herpes on to their child during labor, but this is not always the case. You will really want to speak to your doctor for more information on this if this is something that you are worried about.
Now on the topic of herpes and pregnancy, of course you are going to want to learn about how the herpes might end up affecting your pregnancy. If you had the herpes before you got pregnant, then the risk of your baby becoming infected is going to be quite low. On the other hand, if you did not get herpes until after you became pregnant, there is a slight risk that it is going to end up affecting your developing baby.
You will need to keep your doctor abreast of your situation if you get herpes while you are pregnant, especially if it happens in the second or third trimester.
Also on the topic of herpes and pregnancy, one of the most common questions that people have is whether or not they will be able to breastfeed. The answer is yes, because the herpes virus is not transmitted through breast milk, and so you can feel safe nursing your baby and not have to worry about passing the virus on to them.
