Summary/Abstract: The text is focused on the issue of ethical and risk context of the motives of the first sexual intercourse in heterosexual relationships. We present the results of a broader study that dealt with attitude and behavioral attributes of majority and minority sexual life styles of men and women of younger, middle and older adult age in Bohemia and Slovakia and with their sociocultural and ethical contexts. The results suggest that the first sexual intercourse is most frequently related to love and partnership. A frequent incidence of sexual debut motives containing different degrees of elements of highrisk sexual behaviour was identified. That may suggest some aspects of sexual morals and at the same time serve as a useful tool of sexual education in connection with the development of sexual health.
