I don't think it's hypocritical, really. It's best to be honest and tell your kids why those aren't good things to do, and explain why you feel that way from your experience. If you smoked pot as a teen and you think that's a bad idea, tell them why ...
Interesting question! I think other people had a lot of good answers here. It's nice to see that people aren't total prudes on here, but are smart about this sort of thing. When I was growing up, I saw my mom naked all the time, but never my dad. ...
Since pay phones are much more rare these days, I think there are situations when kids should have cell phones. It's important for kids and parents to be in touch. When I was a kid, no kids had cell phones, but there were pay phones at the mall, and ...
It's totally okay in my book! I'm an atheist too. Sadly, a lot of religions/churches don't preach tolerance and respect at all, and others say they do, but only on the surface. Now, I know there ARE some religions, churches, and religious people who...
You posted this like 3 years ago, so I'm going to guess this isn't an immediate problem anymore, but I'll answer for the sake of others who might wonder: You CAN'T know the morning after! Well, my mom says that the morning after my sister and I wer...
I've heard a lot of guys say that they just like boobs, no matter what, haha. It's a rare guy who will flat-out not like your boobs. I'm a B-cup (sometimes I wear a C, but I don't really "look" like a C), and not to brag, but I've had two guys see the...
I'm an atheist, and you can get married anywhere. Even religious weddings often take place outside of a church! Personally, I'd like to get married outside in a state park, a classy ballroom downtown, or a Victorian home that's been converted to a banq...
I've never understood why people have such strong feelings about pantyhose. I've been wearing them since I was 10 or 12 or so, and I still wear them now (I'm 21), depending on the outfit and shoes. As long as she can sit in a ladylike way, sure, let he...
Oh yeah, sorry about offending people w/ my use of "nerd"... I meant it in the negative way. I would use it in the positive way to describe me, most of my friends, and all the guys I've dated! However, the boy I was describing just... isn't a nerd in...
I'm glad you're back in school! At least in Indiana, it's illegal to kick a student out for being pregnant. No matter what happens, continue to value education... it will help you no matter where life takes you.
You are really brave to admit what you did, and I think it's great that you realize that and you want to change. I think reading, among other things, can help. Try reading "Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?" for starters. ...
Well, you posted this a year ago, so your problem was probably solved in one way or another. But here's my two cents: -In a lot of states, you can take HS classes online. -Homeschooling doesn't have to be a HUGE undertaking for your parents at you...
The Perks of Being a Wallflower Teen Angst?... Naaah the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series The Lovely Bones Angela's Ashes To Kill a Mockingbird Catcher in the Rye The Outsiders
OMG, I am 21 years old. I am angry that a guy my age would do this to a 13-year-old. You might be really mature for your age, but no decent 20-year-old would date a 13-year-old, no matter how pretty, mature, smart, fun, etc. she is. What he did is...
Yep, just use a towel or do it in the shower. No worries! And getting blood on your fingers isn't a big deal, but if you think it would help, you could use latex gloves, I guess...
Don't stop- it's normal, natural, and healthy. It's your body, touch yourself however you want! And if you're a Christian and worried about it, there's nothing in the Bible against masturbating.
It's natural, normal, and healthy. Unless you just don't like doing it, don't worry about it. It's not cheating on your girlfriend. Now, if you fantasize about other women, that might be cheating, so you might want to stop that part, but otherwise, ...
Be engaged, whatever... just don't get married until you're at least out of high school! Out of college, preferably. Trust me, you'll probably get older and find someone you like better. Or you'll realize you'd rather be single for a while! That mi...
Not all women do that, but those who do are usually making generalizations. If they take it out on you, they either have trust issues in general or they're being immature. If most of the important men in a woman's life have been disappointments, it...
Don't worry about whether or not someone else would consider you a slut. Just worry about whether YOU'RE okay with your behavior. Are you really okay with it? Are you respecting yourself, living for your goals, doing what makes you happy, being resp...
He sounds shady, entitled, and dishonest. Don't trust him! Whether or not he did try to get with your friend on MSN, he just doesn't sound like a great guy who cares about your feelings.
Definitely make her feel sexy and beautiful, and tell her that you're not expecting her to give you mind-blowing sex- you just want to be intimate with her. Help her feel unpressured. Also, if she's self-conscious, try doing it with the lights dimmed...
Yes; you can't tell if you're about to get it, and so if you have sex, you might get pregnant even though you didn't realize you were a few days from getting your first period.
There's lots of ways to tell, and unfortunately (or maybe, fortunately), not all guys are the same. Some guys are too shy to really show it at all, but most guys will show it some way, whether they mean to or not. They might look at you a lot in cl...
You're lucky to have a big clit! Enjoy it! I bet guys will love it.
Tease her a little by touching her outside her jeans, then her panties, THEN her skin. Focus on her clit more than her vagina- for the majority of women, it's more pleasurable to have the clit touched than it is to be penetrated. Not all women are li...
I'm 5'2" and weigh the same as you. I'm not fat, either- I mean, I'm not a stick, but my friends are all envious of how small I am, and I don't have rolls of fat or a "pooch" or anything. I don't have abs of steel, but I'm not fat by any means- just ...
Boobs change a lot in your early teens, so they very well might change. And even if they don't, trust me, guys aren't too worried about that. They're just happy to see your boobs! (And if it makes you feel better, my nipples are kind of big, and I...
I didn't look either, for the same reasons stephanief987 didn't. If your zits are really bad, see a dermotologist. Otherwise, just try different skin care products till you find something you like. There are lots of websites with more specific adv...
Unless your mom is totally crazy, like the mom in "Carrie" or something, it won't be bad. At worst, it'll be awkward, and at best, you'll become closer to your mom. Just tell her you need some pads or tampons. When I got my period, I think I used so...
You definitely need to be on birth control (BC), you're right. It sounds like she might be okay with it, since she told you that if you have sex, you should be on BC. If you're scared to tell her in person, it's not cowardly to write her a letter or ...
