Women who had sex for the first time when they were teens are at higher risk for divorce, with 31 percent divorcing within five years of marriage and 47 percent within 10 years of marriage, a new study says. By comparison, the research published in the Journal of Marriage and Family said, women who delayed sex until adulthood had a 15 percent chance of divorce within five years and 27 percent within 10 years.
