No, I'm not interested
I'm not ready, It's getting late
I want my first time to be special
You're crazy
I want to be loved, not make love
Not until we are married
With all these diseases going around?
I don't like kids
I can't afford kids
Rub my back instead
I'm scared
I know your reputation!
I'm waiting for the right time
Let's get something to eat
We're too young
I don't feel comfortable
I don't sleep around
I've got homework
I'd rather watch the game
I want to stay a virgin
It's against my values
I don't want to have kids now
You'll tell everyone
My parents are waiting for me
This isn't the right time
I don't want to get pregnant
I am not ready to commit
My friends will be here any minute
It might ruin our friendship
I'm afraid to get HIV
I'd be sorry later
I want to know you better
Let's Wait
I want to stop now
Thanks anyway
School comes first
I'm feeling sick
It's getting late
I have to go now
You're just using me
Is that all you think about?
I said, NO and I mean it!
Not everybody's doing it, I'm not!
It's against my religion
My parents would kill me
I think I hear my dad
We can find other ways to express love
I'm not sure you are the right person
Please respect my wishes
It's not worth it!
High school students in Kansas
and California were asked to come up
with ways to say no when someone asked
them to have sex when they didn't want to.
This is some of their responses.
