My personal opinion is that people are way to uptight when it comes to the topic of sex. Sex is supposed to be a pleasurable experience between 2 (maybe more) people. The problem arises when people associate sex with love. The 2 have nothing to do with one another aside from when added together they make each other better (like peanut butter and jelly).

I always am amused when people say wait for the right person and it will be magical. That is a ridiculous statement in that how can you ever have a magical moment with someone when all you can think about is how self conscious you are and how you have no idea what you are doing. My first time is special to me not because it was with a true love or it was a beautiful thing but rather because I was horrible and I find the whole memory to be hilarious.

If you don't feel comfortable talking about it then don't. Your friends will understand if they are truly your friends but at the same time don't judge your friends for their experiences. Everyone is different with different beliefs so if you want them to respect yours then you need to respect theirs. It's not as if they are forcing you to have sex, they are just talking about it around you. If it gets to be to embarrassing for you then walk away but don't cut friends out because of it.
