I feel like you just invited me on a little personal exploration - it's so nice to be included (thanks). Your video had a nice pace to it - the interviews flowed together well and although it was mostly "talking head", there was enough variety in the composition (as well as additional b-roll) that it was engaging and interesting visually. I can imagine your video being used by peer or adult educators to help facilitate conversations with teens about sex.

sex can be healthy and a really great stress reliefe.. but when you become dependent on it like some of these people... it isnt so good... and you end up taking advantage of people and thats not good...

Great film. I loved it. You captured the concept of sex and American youth very well. It was humorous too. To the idiot who made the comment about "supermodels" - The point of this documentary wasn't to compare physical attractiveness and views on sex. It was to display the average American teen's views on sex. I think the director did this very well. So excuse yourself if you didn't feel that the people in this movie were attractive enough by your standards.. and if your idea of a good supermodel is Hilary Duff then I don't know what to tell you.

it was good. it puts stuff in the open about sex that we all think about but not always say it out loud.

very interesting subject, very "informative", it was very interesting to hear the perspective from todays youth about a topic like this. Good job.

All that hard work you put into this really did pay off.

It was a nice movie but u really didnt prove your point. You had two lone girls say that they wanted to wait. Not to mention these two werent exactly supermodel material. HAd u gotten hilalry duff on the movie saying she's a virgin and wants to wait it wouldve been a very diffrent story.

Wow, i think you did a really good job on this video. Not only did it look professional but the topic was so relevant to todays youth. Well done.

Very good documentary, capturing the viewers' attention with a clear and precise message. Camera work was professional as was the editing. The is one of the most cohesive and oustanding documentaries I've seen from young filmmakers.

This was a really good film Patricia made. It really gave me a sense of what is lost after the loss of virginity. Thumbs up.
