“Any guy worth his weight in salt takes the responsibility of pregnancy very seriously and any woman who allows a guy to shed such responsibility isn't ready to be having sex.”
—John, 18, TX
This past spring, we asked: Why are you taboo? Over a hundred of you responded with writing and video entries to the I'M TABOO Writing and Video Contests.
We wanted to hear from you, and you spoke up--loud and clear. We heard your stories about what it's like to be a virgin (when it seems like everyone else is doing it), to fall in love with a girl when you're a girl (or a guy when you're a guy), and to desire (and demand!) better sex ed. And we heard what you're really dealing with when it comes to sex (awkwardness, regret, wonder and more).
You rated your favorite stories and videos on the site, and we picked grand-prize winners for each category. Check out the entries below.
