THRESHOLD OF YOUTH

My dear Young Friends,   

            Are you puzzled that a man of your uncle’s and father’s age can be an intimate friend, with thirteen and eighteen year olds like you?

 Why not?

Don’t you think it is like chatting with a senior friend, on Face book or Whatsapp. Don’t you have elderly friends on these fascinating social media?  That is exactly what we are going to do. We will  have a friendly chat, about a subject which is very private, personal  and exceedingly important.

The only difference is that this informal but not casual chat will be through a book. As a preparation to this talk, I have studied your views, thoughts, comments and doubts on our subject of discussion. I have also tried to understand the difficulties, worries, uncertainties,  myths, and misconceptions that you may have encountered, about this subject of paramount importance. Through this chat we will try our best to find answers to all the questions that have baffled, bewildered & mystified you.

                               Have you felt the strange stirring or throbbing in you, whenever a voluptuous, shapely female figure, flashes across the TV screen or movie screen? Your eyes are arrested by any picture or representation of an attractive lass in the newspapers or magazines!  You cannot help watching some English films and serials secretively & surreptitiously, just to catch a peep of the female form.  I am very sure that you cannot stop staring at the shapely babes, on the road or in your neighbourhood!

Why is this happening to you? And why now? Have you given it a thought? Not really...okay! We will now try to find answers for all these vexing & niggling questions. All these are totally based on scientific facts. In short, this is a very interesting discussion about the inward and outward changes you seem to be going through.  I promise you 100 percent that, it is not at all unexciting, boring & lackluster! 

 At times your minds are snowed under with numerous doubts and you look for someone who could give some response & some answer. But who?  Mom? Not at all … then Dad no…. too awkward! How about science faculty in your school or college? A big NO……. they also may be embarrassed or may not know enough realities. Even if you gather some courage and ask, you are left with more persistent & relentless doubts. A student or friend senior to you tells you about his own colourful incidents & experience; but be assured that they  are almost a false version of some  boastful fantasies.

While going through this book you will understand that boys senior to you are as ignorant as you are. This book will clear most of the doubts, but if some remain you can always contact me through e-mail or mobile I will be pleased to help.            

            So my young friends, let us start our chat.
