For the purposes of this table, the following categories are not considered<br />
sources for condoms: friends, family members, <strong>and</strong> home.<br />
7.6 PREMARITAL SEX<br />
The period between first sexual intercourse <strong>and</strong> marriage can be a time of sexual experimentation.<br />
In the era of HIV/<strong>AIDS</strong>, it can also be a risky time. Table 7.4 shows the percentage of never-married<br />
young women <strong>and</strong> men aged 15-24 years who have not yet engaged in sex, as well as the percentage who<br />
had sex in the 12 months preceding the survey <strong>and</strong> the percentage who used condoms during their most<br />
recent sex (for the few instances in which there existed sufficient numbers of cases to present).<br />
