text: It is a personal preference. There is no right age and wrong age, but there is a legal age and non-legal age. If you are 18 and want to lose your virginity, make sure it is with the right person. Most men would beg to have a virgin but do not care about the uncomfortability to her, in the process. Yes, it can be uncomfortable and even painful at first, but it gets better with time. Make sure who you choose is willing to go slow and patiently with you so that it can be more enjoyable of a learning experience. If it doesn't feel right, don't do it!!!!
