15. Me and a couple friends were hanging out with a couple girls who (how do I say they were kinda skanky without sounding like a dick?) had bad reputations (not that I cared in the least bit, and if they were skanky then, by extension, so was I). We were talking about sex, and I was the only guy who admitted not having done it yet. One of them said "Want to?" She'd never been with a virgin before, wanted to give it a shot.
I believed the other guys about their experience at the time. Now, looking back at it, I'm pretty sure that they were lying.
so i know that you were trying to put it nicely, but this reallllllly nicely illustrates why a lot of women would not be keen on pandabear's idea of providing pity sex or just sleeping with a guy to take care of his virginity like that girl did for you...
yes, you said that you were also technically skanky, but nobody cares if a guy is skanky. i don't want to sound all 1950s here, but a girl who sleeps around with whoever she feels like, whenever she fells like, gets labeled in a negative way. a guy who does that gets labeled in a positive way (MOST of the time).
not attacking you, just pointing out that your post is a very good illustration of ONE reason why it can be hard for a guy to convince a girl to have sex with no strings attached... it follows her around like a bad smell and people tend not to respect her. i would like this to change, but as long as we keep labeling girls as "skanky" or "slu*ty" or "easy", it's not going to happen (it'll take more than changing the words to change the attitudes of course, as it's just a symptom of a bigger problem).
