Apparently sex helps make teens more socially adept, more comfortable with their fellow man, more willing to abide by the law. Most likely it just gives people something to look forward to. You can do a lot before you get jaded. Obviously it’s not because you don’t get sex in prison. Maybe all those teachers that have been having sex with their underaged male pupils knew something that society didn’t. They were doing it for America, people!

On the other hand, there is this statement from a scientist at the bottom of the article:
“Our hypothesis as a result of this finding is that teens who become involved in intimate romantic relationships early are having sex early and more often, but that those intimate relationships might later protect them from becoming involved in delinquent acts,” In other words, addiction to sex is more socially acceptable than addiction to, say, easy money or crack.
