Do we bleed when we lose our virginity?

Question

For anyone who has already lost their virginity: Do girls actually bleed a little after being penetrated for the first time? Or is this bleeding virgin thing a myth?

some do, some don't.
I didn't. My friend supposedly bled quite a bit. Factors such as how thick or flexible the hymen (which never actually 'breaks' but is stretched) of the girl in question is, whether or not she's adequately lubricated, how nervous she is (more nerves=even tighter) will all come into play.

We are all different so it depends on our hymen and whether it is already stretched before sex snd the first time how aroysed you are etc. So I didn't bleed, I asked 4 friends and 2 did the other 2 the same as me.

My wife was a virgin when we started having sex. I can't remember the exact first time, but she bleed off and on for about two months during sex. It was always minor. It was slightly painful, but it got better and better as her body got use to it. After her body was broken in, it was all ok after that.

that would depend on the way your hymen was shaped and on how rough you are on your first time XD bleeding isn´t a "myth" but it only happens if your hymen grew so that it would tear easily or if the guy just shoves it in too fast, not giving it the possibility to stretch and tear instead.

If you go slow and take the time to make sure everything goes smoothly you probably won't. I know I didn't. If you go too fast and rough though it's likely that you'll bleed a little.
