A couple of things: I read a news article recently about a 14-y-o girl and a 15-y-o boy who had sex - they each got charged with having sex as a minor, and perpetrating a sex act ON a minor - hilarious =/
I lost it at 19, over the course of 3 months - and no, I am *not* going to explain that. But nevertheless, it was fair-to-middlin, and she enjoyed it too x1, which I thought was a pretty damn fine accomplishment on my part, thank you very much.
