Question

Mason has been dating alex for the past year. he thinks he’s ready to begin sexual relationship. what should he do?

A. mason should discuss it with alex to understand what alex wants.

B. mason should ensure that the sexual relationship that he and alex enter into is kept a secret.

C. mason should end the relationship if alex isn’t ready for a sexual relationship.

D. mason should ensure that his parents and alex’s parents never know about the sexual relationship.

Answer 1

The correct answer here is, A.

B, C, and D are not correct considering the fact that they are trying to keep secretive about it and pretty much saying if Alex doesn't want to enter a sexual relationship that Mason will no longer like her.

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

B and D are much the same and both are wrong. They shouldn't wave a banner proclaiming what they intend to do, but neither should their feelings for one another be hidden. If both share those feelings, there is no reason to go into hiding. The parents may actually give their approval for a deeper relationship sometime.

C is the precise reason for not doing either B or D. If there is not shared affection and commitment and mason is going to end the relationship because he's not getting what he wants, there is no secret to be kept. He's holding an ax over Alex's head, and it's the wrong answer.

A is the very first thing he needs to do. They share a relationship. Just what does Alex want to do? Does he care? He should. Anyone thinking about intimacy better find out if that's what the other person wants.
