after all those years of sex “education,” I acquired very little wisdom about sex. My health teachers began each class with the clause, “When you decide mothersand daughters / personal narratives to have sex…” They took for granted that we mothersand daughters / personal narratives would know how to make this decision. They never gave us any guidance about how to know when, and with whom, we should have sex. Their role was simply to make sure we didn’t get pregnant before we wanted to, and that we never contracted mothersand daughters / personal narratives a disease. So I tried to answer the “when and with whom” questions by example, snatching shreds of advice from watching television, reading books and magazines, and observing my friends’ behavior. Through these varied sources, I learned that the circumstances of your “first time” were very important – most of my friends, both in real life and on television, were in exclusive, long-term dating relationships when they lost their virginities.
