The Concept of Virginity Does Not Exist

The Concept of Virginity Does Not Exist

Let's start at the very beginning. A lot of people believe that when a woman's hymen breaks it means that they are no longer virgins. As of now, according to society the belief is that hymens break due to sexual intercourse or doing the splits. However the hymen can break with us just living our lives and some don't break at all.

The hymen is a thin stretchy bit around the vagina, however it's not a barrier. Also, it doesn't necessarily have to hurt the first time someone has sexual intercourse, if they're careful. It's just a myth that a lot of people believe. The biggest thing about this is that hymens can heal and a lot of them are never even torn in the first place.

The Concept of Virginity Does Not Exist
In fact a study showed that 52% of sexually active teenage women had intact hymens. (You can check the Archives of Adolescent and Pediatric Medicine, March 2004 for the study report)

People just assume that an intact hymen means that one is a virgin. Which is completely not true and hence virginity exams are straight up sexual assaults and they don't even prove anything. Therefore the whole concept of virginity doesn't even exist as one cannot prove if a person is a virgin or not in any way.

  • Oh my.. you sound like my sister. She also likes to reinvent the meaning of words.

  • What? This is not at all what people are talking about when they talk about virginity. Have you has sex? Congratulations, you're no longer a virgin.

    Also, none of this has any relevance to innocence. also you can have sex and still be innocent. You just have to view it in a valuable way and not engage in it often or at least with a lot of people.

  • Well, I have recently had a PAP and she told me very vividly what she was seeing and I apparently still have mine and it’s very pink (much more information than I needed). I think you’d know from the pain that would happen first.

    • Well, alright. Your hymen is still intact. What's your point?

    • Interesting, have you had sex before? Recently? I'm genuinely curious. Mine is probably intact as well but I really have no idea.

  • Huh. Pretty Interesting

    • "No diamond, no________?"

    • Kandy-Kane -is the mystery in this whole thing. She can be anywhere from smoking hot to next-door girl who lures my Bond girl away. Regardless, just by being lesbian is not gonna deter James Bond from pursing his woman

    • You were really right on picking Kandy-Kane, she is not afraid of sharing some highly personal info

  • Oh, believe me, OP. It does. If a girl finds out you're a virgin, she's instantly not attracted to you.

    Men are like currency to women. They're only worth something if other people think it's valuable.

  • Virginity is overrated. Hymens can already be torn or close to gone if one is a athlete, or does stretching things early in puberty. Even sinole things like becoming a normal horse rider.

    Even then virginity usually means take it slow and gradually read the signs if something hurts or to push more.

  • Quit making shit up to justify your bad behavior or life choices. You sound like Huffington Post or Everyday Feminism with their constant "Why its ok to cheat on him." "Men who don't date fat girls are bigots.""Being a cuck is not a bad thing," "Guys, let her peg you." "Gay men are the epitome of toxic masculinity." "Denying women sex, is rape."

    • What are you talking about dude.

  • No, not proven. The term 'virgin' was meant to be 'not defiled' or to 'not had sexual intercourse'.

    • I mean, with the logic of this take, I guess someone can have sex with 1,000, yet, be a virgin. However, a girl can masturbate with a vibrator her whole life, never have intercourse, yet, technically penetrate deep enough to not be a virgin.

  • virginity exists as a concept/construct but it can't be substantiated

  • Sorry to burst your hymen, but it DOES exist.
    If you've had sex, you are not a virgin.
    If you have not had sex, you are a virgin.
    Story over, Amen!

  • I count sucking on your mama's titties as a baby as losing yiur virginity

  • Tbh virginity talk is bs. Who cares lol.

  • It exist and has done for thousands of years.
    "sexual intercourse
    sexual contact between individuals involving penetration, especially the insertion of a man's erect penis into a woman's vagina, typically culminating in orgasm and the ejaculation of semen."
    The natural biological purpose of having sex is for a man to impregnate a woman so if you have not had a penis inserted into your vagina technically in the orginal biblical sense you are still a virgin.

  • I have never had sex. I guess I'm a slut

    • Lol, maybe in my next mytake i'll tell everyone exactly why the word slut doesn't make any sense and that it's super subjective.

    • That was sarcasm. And the word slut makes sense because everyone has their own definition of it

    • Sure, whatever you say.

  • So if a hymen is torn and that does not equal a lady is no longer a virgin as the woman can break the hymen from other ways. How can you name a woman who really had never had intercourse not from butt not from vaginal sex, I mean if taht one Word or term does exist.

    I mean the term virginity will always be out there and people will always refer a virgin to the woman who has never had sex the term will always be used and Heard and named cause that comes from centuries ago and still the term exist.

    If you are a virgin and that term is just a myth how can you call a lady with no sexual experience if the term really exist or yu just said "Oh I never had sexual intercourse" but then you say that and immediately the other person says "Ohh you are a virgin then" so there is no way the term virgin can be erased taht easy from peoples vocabulary.

  • Concept of virginity doesn't matter to sluts.

    However, a good woman wants to loose her virginity to a guy she sees one day as someone she wants to spend her whole life with.

  • yeah you whores would just love this to be true lol

    • true

    • lol!!

  • vir·gin·i·ty
    vərˈjinədē/Submit
    noun
    the state of never having had sexual intercourse.

  • The "concept of virginity" ... definitely exists. You're saying "virginity" does not exist, not its IDEA. Obviously the IDEA of virginity exists or you wouldn't have written this thing right here. Your title is a bit misleading.

    Anyway, yes, virginity does exist.
