You shouldn't toss your ideas aside, but you should try to be more open-minded. Teenagers are just getting to know themselves and they change very quickly. Just because someone "shatters their principles" doesn't mean they have no integrity.
You don't have to go out and get wasted and have sex with every girl that will have you....and I wouldn't say that being comfortable in your sexuality and living it up a little bit (reasonably) while you can is necessarily akin to an "orgy."
My point is that you don't have to be so extreme. You seem to think that you have to either abstain from everything completely or abandon all self respect. There is a happy medium. If you're conservative, that's fine, but you shouldn't look down on people who choose to live their lives differently from yours. As for the idea of sex disgusting you....prepare to be lonely. I don't mean to sound harsh, but it will most likely be difficult to find people, girls especially, that can relate to you on that level.
By all means, if this is the way you choose to live, that is more than fine and I'm sure you're a very respectable person that will contribute a lot to society. However, don't expect those around you to follow in your footsteps; this will inevitably lead to constant disappointment.
Is it normal for a teenager?
