Do goats count? If not, then yes I'm a virgin.

I think there are many types of virginity. yeah, we always associate it with sex, but there is always something that someone will not cave in on. Drinking Alcohol, Sky Diving, Riding a Rollercoaster (which arguably could all be the same as sex). There are lots of wonderful experiences that people can have reservations or fears about and might only do that with someone they really trust.

Just look at porn stars, having sex is 2nd nature to them, almost like watching Saturday cartoons or going to church on Sunday, but some of them won't kiss unless they mean it, and some won't do other things unless they mean it and trust you, like cooking breakfast or staying around for the 2nd day. :D

I really dislike it when people say they want the first time to be special. As though somehow after that sex loses all meaning.

Seriously if you really care about someone then whether they are your first or hundredth doesn't make a difference, it will be special. I think a lot of people just use the ''I want the first time to be special'' line as an excuse because they can't lose it.

If you are waiting to meet that special someone to have sex you better hope that special someone is also waiting cause otherwise you are probably going to be rubbish at sex compared to them. When I meet someone I love I would want to be as good at sex as possible, so I can give them pleasure. Not have it be my first time.

I mean how much would that suck? Meet someone you love and you can't even give them an orgasm lol.

Sex is nothing special, it's who you do it with that makes it special.

Edit: 2 things I thought to add.

1) all the people saying ''Yea im a virgin but I could have lost it if I wanted'' yea don't be so sure. Unless the girl was naked and waiting for you then it's not a sure thing, plenty of ways to mess upstill.

2) Really the more I think about it the crazier it seems to be a virgin for the person you love. If you are a girl then it's going to hurt the first time and you won't get much pleasure out of it. What a great first time that will be with the one you love, pain. One of my friends and his current g/f she was a virgin and the first 5 times they had sex it was still hurting her.
If your a guy then being a virgin first time just means the girl isn't going to be as satisfied as she deserves to be.

If you wait until marriage then that means you only have one sexual partner ever... for all you know your both terrible, and you could be experiencing so much more joy. If that's the case then one of you is likely to go wandering as you don't feel satisfied. If I loved someone and the sex was terrible it would be a pretty big drawback, however if I knew the sex was terrible as i'd had prior experience then we could work at it.

lost my virginity at the age of 17

Your right people couldn't possibly just want to wait, They just can't get laid. And let me tell you the higher the number the better. Last time I was in Africa I must have gotton with like 50 girls, but thats nothing compared to the number I got with when I got back. And waiting till your married screw that I wouldn't want to share some meaningless life milestone with my significant other. You know what I would never take my wife to the grand canyon without me going first this way I could know my way around. I mean could you imagine doing something for the first time with someone important, that would be just horrible, I mean you might bond.

my girlfriend when i met her told me she was half virgin.

a half virgin. lol whats a half virgin?

that's what i said.

And what did she say?

she said that she started to but didnt finish, he only went half way.
