Youth having sex are waiting longer to do so now compared to their peers from a decade ago, according to new research from the McCreary Centre Society. [...]
The survey found 5% fewer students between Grade 7 and 12 reported having sex in 2013 compared to 2003, when 24% of students reported that they had intercourse before.
It also seemed like the youngest students - those under 15, who generally use the least-safe sex practices - are having sex less often. Only 4% of this category reported having had intercourse in 2013 compared to 8% in 2003.
