Hmm, I'd have to say it depends on the individual. I didn't get into sexual behavior until I was 18 to be honest. I dated before that, and actually dated more than one girl at a time, but my personal thoughts were that school was too important to complicate things with sex.

If your son is curious, and asking you, I'd strongly suggest you be brutally honest with him. It sounds as though what you mentioned above, you are. Make sure he is well educated, and he knows he can come to you without being worried you'll yell at him or punish him for things of the sort too.

Also, stress the fact he should communicate with his partner when he finds one. Especially in regards to birth control. It's seen as "cool" at the age he'll be entering to avoid any sort of "safe" things, and he'll need to know the honest truth about the situation I think.
