The new found freedom, the sudden influx of potential partners, the overwhelming social pressure to get your dick wet. It’s a cesspool of lewd behavior.
I grew up in a fairly small town, so small in fact that I spent grade four to high school graduation with the same ~40 kids in my grade. When you grow up with the same group of kids and go through that awkward puberty phase together and then toss in strange middle school drama, the resulting relationships morph into almost borderline incestual bonds. I was also an ugly duckling who thought I *totally* pulled off a Monroe piercing. Needless to say, there weren’t a whole lot of no pants parties in my high school career.
Come university I ditched the tacky piercing, swapped it out for a lip ring (*slightly* less tacky), dyed my hair, lost a bit of weight, and lucked out with my own single occupancy dorm on campus. Go ahead, ask me how long it took me to lose my virginity. Yup, less than a month.
