What you say makes no sense.

Are you telling me that someone who really wants to have sex, but is scared to talk to girls, or is unattractive, or doesn't have the social skills to talk to girls, although he really wants to... should be proud of himself?

That's how most of today's "old" virgins are, they are nerds or pepole without social skills who can't get sex even though they want to, why the hell would anyone be proud of himself like that?


While I somewhat disagree with JoelCool7 on the urge to feel proud of keeping one's virginity because it's hard (that's what she said), you seem to have missed his point entirely. Personally I don't feel pride nor shame from it. It's simply something I hope to achieve as a test of self-control as well as living by example for those around me.

I'm by no means the best looking guy in the world but I'm far from the worst. I have no trouble getting along with girls and talking to them. In high school most of my best friends were girls. I don't think I'd have trouble "getting some" but to keep a cool head and maintain composure in the heat of a moment is a difficult thing to do considering Western society's attitudes and glorification of sexual activity. I think the difficulty to not be affected by this attitude is what JoelCool7 was alluding to. You yourself demonstrated exactly what he meant by describing the majority of older virgins as unattractive social outcasts. Believe it or not there are people out there who continue to live with old school values, me included, where they want to get through life with one partner only. I believe JoelCool7 suggested that those who are virgins for this reason should feel pride in their accomplishment.

Most people don't pertain to this value anymore and they have their reasons. I respect your life choices and your opinions regarding the issue but try not to be condescending or insulting in expressing your view.

Joel is a girl now?

FTR, it's cool of you to not have one of  those judgmental superior attitudes that most people in your situation typically have.
