First sexual experience
Q from a female, junior from Colorado
College: wants to know…If your first
sexual experience wasn’t what you expected,
how do you become comfortable in the future with a
different partner?
Dr. Caron's Answer: It will take time. I
believe it means taking time to develop the kind of
relationship where there is mutual respect, caring
and trust. I’m sorry that your first sexual
experience was not comfortable. It would be helpful
to know a bit more about what happened, in order to
understand what needs to happen in the future to
make it better. Maybe you could think about that.
In terms of future relationships, keep in mind that
the context of the relationship can be crucial in
determining how comfortable one feels. Take your
time.

American teens have the worst of all
worlds...Our children are bombarded and confronted
with sexual messages, sexual exploitation, and all
manner of sexual criticism. But our society is by
and large sexually illiterate. Faye Westheimer
