Maybe I think it's alright because my schools were very adament about our sex education, which started in grade four. A close friend lost her virginity at age thirteen. I lost mine at fifteen. Both of us are still happy with our decisions.
So what I'm gathering mostly from this is that kids are not educated enough about the implications of sex, so they shouldn't have sex.

if its a girl I'm probably going to be tempted to completely shut her off from modern society at some point to keep her away from teenage sex, body issues, etc.

Parents are not doing their part. I'm not sure if it's because they don't know specifics themselves, or if they're just afraid to talk about sex openly, but I think it's a huge cause of the problem.
Also, I'm not saying that all youth should have sex once they're mature. Just that I don't see anything wrong with it if they do in an educated manner.
