Normal to have a fear of sex?

I am afraid of sex.
I always have been.
Something about being touched 'that way' by a male has always scared me.
Whenever I think about it, I feel like hiding under a desk or running away as fast as I can. I dropped my life-skills class because they began to talk about human sexuality
I admit I've never crushed on anyone nor do I fantasize about such things, but because of my fear of sex, a lot of people have decided to single me out as the 'school freak'. As a young woman in my final high school year, I've always thought it odd that people would so easily fling themselves between partners at such young ages only to complain and bit, whine and moan when they pop out a kid later on. I just cant fathom it.
Is it ordinary to fear sex like this?

    To fear sex? In my experience it's quite ordinary yes, but not to that degree. It shouldn't really be so obvious to those around you.

    Many girls have fear for sex. Sometimes it is because they fear of unwanted pregnancies, sometimes it is because of cultural and traditional values that a girl should be a virgin until she gets married, sometimes it is because of STD's. There are many reasons because of which a girl fears from having sex.
    But i believe it is wrong. I am not saying go have sex like a slut, but what i am trying to say is educate yourself with the knowledge about sex, each and everything you should know. Don't just freak out from that color of life. Life has various colors and if we just stick to one color how can we expect it to be colorful?? it will be monotonous.
    It is your decision that you want to do sex or not. but don't keep fear about it in your mind. And here is something for you to boost up your moral.

    “I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.”
    ― Nelson Mandela
