Boyhood sexuality focuses on a
sexually immature or inexperienced male.
The period between boyhood and
manhood is an integral part of a man’s growth where every influence plays a role in the shaping
of a male’s attitude towards sex.
Nowadays, boys are no longer
sneaking their father’s Playboys under the bed for a midnight rendezvous with Miss
January.
Young males do not have to
explore their boyhood sexuality in secret or look hard for the answers to some of their many
questions. The answers or what they believe to be the answers to these boyhood sexuality
inquiries are available within the variety of media outlets of today.
Television
Not only does the television
feature R-rated cable movies and racy primetime TV. dramas, but you can also view the latest
scantily dressed Victoria Secret models walk across your television screen at any time of the
day.
Films
The films of today also answer
some of the boyhood sexuality questions that a teenager may have because a lot more wide-ranging
content can go into a PG-13-rated movie than 10-20 years ago.
Magazines
Other resources that young
males draw from when exploring their boyhood sexuality include popular magazines, as well as
music and music videos, where the relationship between man and woman can appear somewhat
blurred.
Boyhood sexuality deals with
the sexual behaviour, attitudes, and activity among young males. When a boy is interested in
exploring his sexuality, there are legal, political and societal limits that he
faces.
The topic of sexuality
pertaining to any child is a touchy subject, bordering on illegal.
Some believe that exploring
boyhood sexuality is normal and healthy, but also subject to interpretation, within the
constraints created by society and the law.
When a young male is exploring
his sexuality during boyhood, he may engage in a variety of sexual activities, including the
fondling of his own genitals.
Attempts at Intercourse
When he encounters a young
female, he may try to engage in sexual activities with her, including hugging, kissing, as well
as the fondling of her genitals. This exploration may or may not lead to early attempts at
intercourse.
Not all boyhood sexuality
exploration will lead to early sex. It all depends on the child’s environment, as well as the
information he encounters.
Misinformation and peer
pressure are some of the factors that may ease a curious boy into something closer to a man (in
the physical sense).
Boyhood sexuality is noticeable
as young as at the age of two, when children discover the pleasure in touching their own
genitals. Between the ages of 2-5, a child may experience arousal, sexual curiosity, as well as
masturbation. Young children have been known to engage in “sex play” that goes beyond the
age-old “Playing Doctor” game in elementary school.
It has been reported that
children as young as 5 years old have attempted sexual intercourse, if they have learned of this
action from others, such as their parents or television.
When a male reaches the ages
between 6-9, he will find that his boyhood sexuality has increased where sexual terms and jokes
may be repeated. A boy’s interest in pornography may be developed.
The questions regarding boyhood
sexuality will increase, prompting a possible “birds and the bees” talk from
parents.
Puberty
When a boy reaches the age of
10, nearing puberty, he may share questions and conversations with his peers regarding sex.
Individuals in this age bracket may engage in kissing games, touching and
fondling.
The increase in boyhood
sexuality exploration continues as each year passes, displaying an increasing level of intensity
as the boy begins to experience the changes throughout his adolescent life and
body.
