How Do I Let Go of Feeling Sexually Unattractive?
Porphyria
I had sex for the first time shortly after turning 20 (about a year ago), but I wish I had done it sooner.

But I remember that in the process of him trying it was hurting really bad....
I'm 15 and bisexual, but how do I know for sure?
Anonymous
Hey, I'm 15, just turned, and bisexual. I can help but wonder if this is because of my hormones or if I really do like girls and guys. I mean, I like kissing both sexes, but I haven't had intercourse yet, and I need to find some way of determining how I feel. I'm proud to say I'm bi, but I don't want to be saying it and lying. ...
