Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The data shows that about 50% of females and 25% of males stated their first intercourse experience occurred because of their feelings for their partner. This is the only answer choice that accurately reflects the data from the NHSLS study. Option A is not accurate as only 33% of male adolescents cited being "in love" as the main reason for first intercourse, and option B is also not accurate as only 14% of female adolescents said they had sex because their partner pressured them. Option C is partially correct, as 21% of male and 23% of female adolescents stated their first intercourse experience was spurred by curiosity, but it does not reflect the primary motive reported by the majority of participants.
