Honestly I don't think it's ever "Weird" to be a virgin. Its admirable in most cases.

How is it admirable?

I guess I have a double standard ingrained into.  I don't want to date girls who have been with other guys (or atleast a lot of other guys), but if a guy is a virgin its kind of weird.

I sorta' know how it's supposed to work, but not really. I don't know anything about female anatomy concerning the lower abdomen, so...Not a big deal, though, since it won't affect me anytime soon. I don't like getting touched. I don't even like hugging, so I doubt that anyone will ever be able to make me do anything.

I'm one of the proud and few, huh? Most people know how it works when they're in middle school, don't they? I'm almost a senior in high school. Lots of girls think that it's great that I, you know...actually look at their face when I'm speaking to them. Actually, all of my friends are girls...

Aha, you're asexual. I get it now. Either that or you're a clueless gay guy. I hope you at least know something about male anatomy... concerning the lower abdoment.

Anyways, regarding the bolded part, if you'll ever meet a girl you actually like, and you're about 30, that will be a major issue.

So you like to date virgin girls, but experienced guys?

I felt weird being a virgin at 16, but looking back I would say after 20 it is kind of weird unless you really are ugly or have anziety disorders to the extreme.    My friend who is 22 and a virgin and no girlfriend is often thought by people he might be gay, poor guy, but even  Iwonder myself considering he is hotshit . I mean in a non gay way. lol

Yeah, sute.

Haha...It's okay. I'm straight, don't worry (well, leaning more towards asexuality since I think that physical contact is weird) I will definitely agree that one should NEVER try to talk to girls about music, but they're generally civilized otherwise. And I don't watch much TV, so I don't care. And the most violent console game that I have (outside of 999) is Monster Hunter Tri or Goldeneye 007, and they don't qualify as violent as far as games go. Until I go away to college next year, I won't be able to own any violent video games.

It's just my personal preference. Guys scare me about 99% of the time. I grew up in an abusive household, so that really didn't raise my opinion about guys at all. Plus, I've never been able to have a conversation that lasts longer than 5 minutes with a guy because I can't stand it when they start making jokes about sex or female anatomy. I haven't had a male friend since I was 10.

So, at this point, I've pretty much given up on high school-aged guys as far as friends go. Maybe it'll be different once I'm in college. I'm pretty inept when it comes to striking up a convo with a dude, so maybe not even then!

I can relate to this.

^The sooner you realise that love isn't a necessity for sex and virginity isn't for your wife, the better.

Of course it's not a requirement (otherwise premarital sex wouldn't exist), but then it just degenerates into hedonism, doesn't it?

And what's the problem with a bit of hedonism? Sex gives pleasure, pleasure is good.

And what is virginity for, then?

Why does it have to be 'for' something? It's just something that is.

If it's not meant to be saved for your spouse, then who's to say that extramarital or multiple partners is unethical and unsanctioned? If it were ethical, then STDs wouldn't exist, would they? How else do you get them?

STDs exist for the same reason that influenza exists. Because it's a convenient way for diseases to propagate. Also if you use a condom you aren't going to get a STD anyway.

I kind of get the feeling that you're coming from a perspective of 'God made STDs to punish fornication/adultery' which I'm going to have to disagree with on the grounds that I don't believe in God.

I mean, if what you're saying is true, then by your viewpoint, we should look up to people who have multiple sex partners. If that's true, then why do STDs exist?

Look up to? Not really, just not look down on.

Agreed. I think the better question would be why do people rush to sex? Why is there so much pressure and why do so many people think its wierd if you go through your teenage years keeping your virginity?

These. I admire people who chose to wait instead of having meaningless sex.

I really want to facepalm at the guys who think they need to do it before 20 otherwise it's weird. Really? Dudes, that doesn't make you attractive... AT ALL. I'm a women and I know what I like and really dislike. If a guy slept around or had sex just cause he thinks it's cool, to me it is quite repulsive, doesn't show much intelligence (both mental and emotional), lack of maturity and it doesn't seem very respectful. Not sure I would want to be around that guy, ever.

Hedonism? I view having sex as an exploration of my own sexuality rather than just another way to enjoy myself, I don't lack these... it is something that helps you to get to know your partner as well... a personality reflects in it.

As for the other comment, once you commit, you commit. That's what makes it unethical and traitorous if you sleep around.

Sooo.... okay. Exploration of sexuality. Fine. But why would a person need to explore with another person so early in life? Doesn't sex require you to give yourself up emotionally to another person? Unless, as I said, you're doing it for pleasure's sake, in which case it degenerates into hedonism.

Anyway, even if sex allows you to grow more intimate with a partner, don't you want to get to know your partner before any activity occurs, rather than depending on a sexual encounter to define a person?

So... are you basically saying that sex with other people is fine until you commit? After that, you're stuck? Because that's just... I mean, imagine getting married and then telling someone on your honeymoon, "Oh, hey, I've already had sex with 4 people, by the way." Not real fair.

Huh? It's perfectly fair. So what if you partner had sex with 4 people prior to you? The fact that you two got married shows that you two are ready to leave that behind and commit only to eachother. Marriage is based on trust in eachother as well as taking the bad in with the good. Is that something that should really stop you from marrying the person you love? Hell no.

In sex you can see things that do not normally show, that's why I even made that remark. Of course it's better if everything was available for you without it.

And yeah, again, sex with others is fine until you decide to settle down and are fixed on that you found your partner for life. If you have problems with the fact that your partner isn't a virgin or if he/she has the same problem with you, you two do not trust eachother enough, and do not have enough understanding on an emotional level.

Hey, Just because we smack each others' asses in the gym after working out does not make us gay.
