Virginity

Unread post by Sam W »

Hi Samham,

You mentioned in your other post that you're not sure if you're still a virgin or not. The thing is, virginity is not a concrete, physical thing. It's a social construct, an idea that people made up. Because of that, different people define "losing" their virginity in different ways. Some people define it as penetration, others as anything involving a penis, the list goes on and on. I think you may find these pieces helpful:
