Not all relationships revolve around sex, you know. Saying OP shouldn't be dating just because she's "too young to do that" is ridiculous.

People like you are exactly the reason waiting makes sense. If you want a REAL relationship, don't put out; the ones only in it for sex will wander off before you've wasted too much of yourself on them, and you're free to look for better options.

There are people in their 20's, 30's and above that wouldn't agree to that. Not everyone wants sex, some don't want it at all. I'm over 21, legally an adult, and I wouldn't agree to that. Am I not old enough to date?

Seriously, do you need to get in a committed, monogamous boyfriend-girlfriend relationship if sex is not even a possibility? Why can't you be platonic with many people?

Those two things actually go quite well together; it's not strange at all that someone would hold both beliefs. It's more strange when someone abhors both teenage pregnancy and condoms.

My grandmother told me that in her day many people were parents by the time they were 18. The thing that disgusted her was that now everyone talks about anything related to sex. In her day you only talked about sex if 1) you were a women having her first period 2) a new parent or 3) getting ready for marriage. Otherwise, sex and everything related to it was on the same level as 'The F Word'.
