I'm 14, and i definitely haven't chosen it. But i also don't go around sleeping with every boy (or girl) i like. I've always thought people choose it because they think it is expected of them or maybe just do they can take some kind of moral high ground, i don't know for sure. I suppose it is so easy to be ridiculed: If you loose your virginity too young, you're a whore. But if you loose it too old then you're a prude! People are way to quick to judge. I guess it's just complicated and different people have different reasons for doing things, but i believe it has a lot to do with up bringing. If you know any teens who have chosen abstinence I'm sure they wouldn't mind you asking about their choices.
