Most guys lose it as teen to teen girls.

Kurgan is right, I am afraid, a lot of women (adults) don't regard virgin men highly.


Society in general makes a big deal about virginity.....I mean really who cares whether or not someones had sex yet......is it that bad that the chance they have an STD is lower?


Because this how they would think:

A virgin man = never had a relationship before = then there's something wrong in him.


Why is there something wrong with someone if they haven't had sex? I don't understand this society sometimes(actually don't understand it at all.)

It really makes sense when you put it like this.

Well, because it makes sense.

An employer doesn't usually prefer to hire an adult person with zero years experience.

Why? first he's more likely to be incompetent hence why never had a job, plus he lacks the experience.

Also, teen soaps and MTV have made virginity the ultimate badge of looserness.

And the only way to gain experience is to do things, so what is the thinking basically 'if he/she hasn't had sex yet, they certainly never should.'? Also I thought relationships where about more than just sex, so I don't see how that is quite comparable to an employer looking for someone with experience in a certain field.....also it's not like sex is that complex of an activity I mean I think we all know how it basically works.

If we stopped generalizing by gender we could stop having arguments about it. Wouldn't that be lovely?
Sex and dating are very individual things with a lot of variance and a lot of things that don't get talked about or expressed behind closed doors so public perception can be very inaccurate.
Everyone is a virgin at some point, different cultures, communities, and people have different attitudes towards virginity and sex.
People are all different so there is no standard right answer for "what women think about this or that" or "how men are thought of with this or that stipulation".
In my personal experience (no more/no less valid than anyone else's) I've never been particularly concerned with the sexual history of a partner (so long as they've had recent testing done) and I've only experienced judgementalness from potential partners who were not particularly "nice" and never moved past the potential stage.
I like people who are genuinely nice and sweet. I don't like people who act nice in the hopes of being 'rewarded' with sex. Really I guess I like people who are genuine and honest, ulterior motives are not cute.

They wouldn't think like this but simply they would see it as a turn off.

I doubt every female sees virginity as a turn off......though generally speaking society says it's supposed to be a turn off but I don't see why. In this society you're either a 'whore' because you've had too much sex, or a loser because you haven't had sex...I find it ridiculous.

Oh? I wasn't aware anyone was crying...I just don't see what's wrong with being a virgin, and I think it's stupid most of society seems to promote the stigma attached to being a virgin which I personally don't think should exist in the first place.

lol ... don't take the word cry literally, i meant it as complaining and the like.

The stigma is there and it's not changing anytime soon, it's not like we have other choice but to co-live with it.

It's amazing then that you have so many insights into the sexual behavior and thought processes of women.
Maybe more talking to individual women, less talking about an imaginary female hivemind.
No one is crying (or complaining, whatever patronizing thing you meant to say). We're discussing patriarchal double standards. You know, talking about it, like how adults solve problems.

See, that's exactly what i was talking about all the time.

(btw, there are a lot of other ways to learn about the sexual behavior and the mainstream thought processes of some women other than having sex with them.....)

Anyways, thank you for proving my point.

I never said you weren't desirable because of your sexual status (there are other reasons for that). I shouls have said interesting instead of amazing because that's closer to my meaning. It's interesting that you invest so much time examining and presenting speculation as fact on the topic of female sexuality when, for neither good or bad, you haven't had first had experience.
If you felt that was a put down I apologize because it was simply an observation.
Do you resent women or blame them for you being a virgin?
Do you dislike being a virgin?
