youths sexual attraction is felt both by boys and girls. It is normal and healthy that
both boys and girls experience strong attraction to the opposite sex rather
differently. It is important especially for teens to be aware of the difference
in the way sexual attraction takes place and to be cautious. They often hear their parents , elders , and teachers
warn them about the special care they should take in a girl-boy relationship.
Sexual
thoughts are natural and attraction to the opposite sex is natural.
Teens enjoy the company of members of the opposite sex. Girls and boys
communicate and relate to each other in many ways. However, when they enjoy
intimacy, it can lead to sexual arousal and sexual intercourse. An awareness of
the difference in the way sexual attraction is felt if understood correctly,
could help a boy and girl to have
healthy relations and avoid pit-falls and tragedy. If a boy and girl behave in an irresponsible manner,
the boy may choose freely to walk away, but the girl may be left literally
holding the baby.
