PLEASE READ BEFORE POLLING AND POSTING!

This thread will not turn into a Flame thread or a Trolling thread. This is a general discussion on the topic at hand. DO NOT post anything that will induce a trolling or a flaming thread please. This must be a discussion and not a War. To keep this thread on topic there are 2 questions I will post below, and please respond to the questions as everyone has their own opinion and try to respect everyones' opinion.

The poll is divided into age groups and not specific ages. You do not have to reveal your age if you do not want to. But I please do ask you to answer the questions below for the sake of the thread.


Q1) Do you think Virginity is a Large factor in life? Why or why not?


Q2) Is virginity viewed more as a status than anything else?? (Some people tend to get judgemental about virginity.) What do you think??

 

[Hectic Glenn]

17. Its the legal age in the UK, so no judgement. After about 6 months with my girlfriend, so nothing silly, it was important.

1) Virginity is a word that does have a big meaning. I don't see any problem with losing it to someone you dearly love and cherish. Losing it to any random slag i find sad.

2) I don't really think so, at 17/18 years everyones doing the same thing, and its kind of expected that people would be having sex and some not. Nothing is ever a point of ridicule either way. From religious groups thats a different story, but who cares about them. I don't think anyone minds it in a proper long term relationship at the legal age. Virginity is nothing to be ashamed of to have or lost. Status doesn't exist where i live due to it.

 

[short recoil]

I'm nearlly 20 and still a virgin, through my own choice. (believe me if i was intent on having sex i would have by now)

It is not a major factor of life at all imo.....it's just having sex.
It's pleasure or the ability to reproduce, some see it as more than that but that's their choice.

I don't need it to be happy, i don't care that i'm a virgin, i might not always be a virgin but i am for the near future.

1.) Virginity is a big factor only because everybody makes it out to be. I personally don't think it is, but I certainly certainly understand the pressure. I know there are plenty of people who would lie about it because they didn't want to be seem inexperienced or uncool.

2.) Virginity is only a status in that it means you've not had sex. That's it.

1) Virginity is important if you want it to be important. It's all in your mind.

2) For the most part, it is viewed as status by many people. It's up to the person whether to put significance in it or not.

 

[Cormeh]

This is a strange one for the internet.

But I'll bite, 19.

Q1) Do you think Virginity is a Large factor in life? Why or why not?

Well, yes it is, because all things come to an end. Meaning that it's a natural progression for a lot of people. But it differs person to person.

Q2) Is virginity viewed more as a status than anything else?? (Some people tend to get judgemental about virginity.) What do you think??

I think too many people associate far too many negative things about virginity, like I said, it should be viewed as a progression, and not something you should be desperate to be rid of because of peer pressure, or anything else silly like that.

Still a virgin, 17

1) Virginity is only considered an important factor by certain immature people that think sex is all there is in life. I don't think it is an important factor, whether your a virgin or not should not really have any bearing on other things

2) It is viewed as a status, but it isn't one that bothers me, would rather wait for someone i actually cared for to do it with. For instance, i probably could have had sex with my ex, but i felt that it would have been pointless as i did not want to be in the relationship in the first place.

Should you care if it's viewed as a status? Do other people rule your life?

PLEASE READ MY FIRST POST AGAIN! No responses that induce flame or trolling.

Its 16 actually.

Questions aren't allowed? I wasn't trolling. And I edited out the second part (he already answered it)

1) I never considered it an important part of my life, but I'm not about to act like I was immune to social pressure. It was always there as a nagging thought.

That said, I have absolutely zero regrets about how I lost it.

 

[dream431ca]

Questions aren't allowed? I wasn't trolling.

No..I didn't mean it like that. Some people could take offence to those questions. Please respect other people's opinions. This is an interesting topic and the thread should not be closed because of induced flaming. You can ask questions..just be more considerate.

 

[Pi Mu Rho]

1) No.

2) Yes.

Sorry, but I generally don't like to add 50 extra "consideration" words to my posts. I prefer to go right to the point. They don't have to flame in response. It's their own problem of whether to act maturely or not.

LIES, spill the real beans Pi

 

[Direwolf]

If thats a lie, I don't even want to KNOW what the "real beans" are.

 

[Shodan]

14, Wish I didn't to be honest, it wasn't entirely my choice either. :S

1)I personally thought it could've been, but it wasn't.

2)At young age, its the cool thing to do, **** the first thing that comes along.

What a bunch of shit.

 

[Qonfused]

Virgin.

1.) Virginity is a big thing when to comes to "big things," like marriage. I view it like this: would you like do give your spouse a crisp Hersey's chocolate bar, or a semi-melted, sticky one?

2.) It's status, and only that.

"I lost my virginity!"
"Really?"
"Well, yeah."
"... ...Cool."
"Yeah..."

 

[CyberPitz]

1.) No. Sex is a human act. Why would being abstinate be so important *unless you're so afraid of STDs*
2.) No...it shouldn't be judged upon. I mean, some christians really dislike you if you've had sex........but in the adult life, no.

I wanted it out of the way - personally, I didn't want my first time to be built up to be anything it wasn't. Plus with regards to the the whole marriage thing, I'd prefer to give the girl I love a good time well before marrying her.



I'm not afraid of STDs, I practice safe sex - I've had myself checked up a month or so after I've slept with someone unsafely. I've slept with 6 different girls in the past 2 and a half months, and I was seeing someone for a month of that (I didn't **** around on her, I never would) - she was the only girl I slept with unprotected.

Status-wise, I think that if you're mature and adult about the whole thing, it doesn't matter either way.

 

[xcellerate]

it's a big deal with marriage. I think people build it up way too much. Yay for sex, but meaningless sex for the point of not being a virgin anymore is no fun, i mean it is--but it isn't, if that makes sense.


and don't buy into that safe sex thing, my friends just had a baby (they're old enough and have good careers so it'll be ok) but they used a condom, the pill, and a small insert for the girl that's suppose to prevent pregancy. Now they have a baby boy. So shit does happen.

Holy shit (Though it's not that uncommon to lose it that early)

17.

Q1) I don't think virginity itself is a big factor. But I think a more or less serious relationship is. Everyone I've met who has been in a somewhat serious relationship, and experienced all the ups and downs of love, has alot more maturity, self distance and wisdom than those who haven't.

Q2) Maybe a bit, but in my opinion it doesn't matter. It's much harder to keep your virginity than to lose it, unless you're suffering serious social deprivation or something like that.

Waiting to have sex until marriage. In my opinion? The stupidest ****ing idea ever.
You should seriously know yourself and your partner enough in that aspect before you should ever think of marrying her/him.

Exactly, what if you're partner has like, some scary growth down there?! You'd wanna know that before you married...well...I would.

Beliefs are immature?

Wasn't talking about peoples beliefs, i was having a mini-rant at people i know who give the appearance that all they think of is sex, and don't want a relationship or they don't treat the girls they are with well. May have used the wrong phrase earlier, but hope this explains it all for ya.

 

[gh0st]

15 and i regret it. keep your pants on FOR AS LONG AS YOU CAN.

 

[Uriel]

Unless you're married right?

 

[Last One In]

19 and still got my pants on.

Q1) Do you think Virginity is a Large factor in life? Why or why not? I believe that virginity is one of the greatest gifts you can give someone, and you don't want to waste that gift on some cheap tramp that you'll be seeing for 2 weeks.


Q2) Is virginity viewed more as a status than anything else?? (Some people tend to get judgemental about virginity.) What do you think??
-I think that it is viewed as a status, but it is something that should be respected. (unless the person is some perverted fat guy [or gal] who masturbates because he/she can't get laid.)

1.) Yes (to me atleast)
2.) No, Not really

You what?

We want like an Etheopian child wants an icecream

 

[Pi Mu Rho]

Can you try that again, only making actual sense this time?

 

[SimonomiS]

He believes you're lying and desperately wants to know the truth if that isn't it.

Or he's Ethiopian and wants some ice cream.

Who says it can't be both?

 

[Pi Mu Rho]

Ok, ok. You got me.
I'm still a virgin. My three kids were conceived by immaculate conception.

Thirteen. What do you want? Photos? I'd give you the girl's name to contact her, but she died in a car accident* about 10 years ago. I don't see what's so unbelievable about it - most 13 year olds are rampantly horny little bastards. Given the right stimuli (hello alcohol) and circumstances (house party!), miracles can happen. Or, at least, a crap and utterly forgettable shag can happen.



*or was it?

 

[Drackard]

16 - Still got my pants on too

1. Personally it isn't to me, but to others it is, and you have to respect that either way, i'm not in a hurry to lose it tbh, i would rather just wait for a bit first, get things like my a/as levels out the way, then im a free man and wahey, who knows.

2. I don't see it viewed as a status, although saying that i don't fully understand the question

 

[Adidajs]

24, and sometimes i wish i still had it.
