Virgin roll call :)

[JamesSmith]

I don't think people would call him a nerd if it weren't for his profession and introverted personality, though. Compared to other people in their mid fifties, he's in good physical shape, has a good-looking wife and owns a Porsche 959.

That's the point i was trying to make: You can have a porshe, good-looking wife, be in great shape, and be a billionaire and people will still try to call you derogatory terms like "nerd." I was just showing that many people in society like to take on the critic role and search for some flaw to point out, or something they believe is a flaw. That's why we shouldn't really care if people in society think we are less than them because we haven't had sex and they have. Society is a bunch of critics and are constantly looking for someone to criticize.

In the case of Gates I think much of the derogatory comments are based on envy. He's a successful billionaire, but if some ordinary Joe can say "Well, I may not have all his wealth, but I'm least I'm not a nerd!" then that makes them feel a little better about themselves. They'd join the nerd club in a second for his money and success. Who wouldn't?

That is a valid point, but I stick by my thoughts about society being critical. Maybe they aren't criticizing virgins out of envy, but they still are being critics as they love to be critics so often.

almost 24 here and still a virgin........not really something im proud of. Ive been lucky though as nobody has ever directly asked me about it. but if somebody did I probably wouldnt lie about it. alot of the guys at work talk about sex and stuff all the time when we set outside on break. I always just set back and listen, hopeing that they dont ask me anything cause I honestly dont have a clue about it speaking from experience. it would most likely embarrass the crap out of me. I'd say what probably ruined me was masturbation, I started out fairly young and later as I got older I found that doing it myself was alot cheaper and easier than going for the ladies . ive never really had a girlfriend, or even really made out with a girl, which probably sounds worse than the whole "virgin" thing. but honestly I would love to find a nice girl to be with cause ive been single and lonely for too long.

I agree, i'm 17 too and a virgin, never had a boyfriend, and theres a lot of pressure :/. End of the day, even if i did get a girlfriend, i would never pressure anyone into sex.

I'm 26 and a virgin. I wouldn't say that I'm proud of it, but I'm not ashamed either. When I was younger I would stress about it a lot more, I guess now that I'm older I've come to accept it and it doesn't really bother me.

20 and a virgin, never had a girlfriend. I dislike it because of the social bias attached, but don't really think there is any great significance either. Being a virgin isn't necessarily a bad thing, but there's no reason to be proud of it, either.

I'm 21 and I never had a girlfriend... so, sex is out of the question. I honestly don't think it's such a big deal though. To think otherwise in my opinion is just plain stupid. I mean of course that's something you have to experience in life, but it doesn't have to happen in a particular age just because there is a standart set by other people. You should consider it whenever you're ready and with the right person. Don't let others get you down on this and don't feel sorry for yourself. There is nothing shameful in being a virgin.

im 26 year old virgin and i want to kill meself so not a good idea not to have young love or you will pay the price

 

[talisman]

26 here...near the upper end of the age range in this thread it seems....FLM lol

The worst thing about virginity for me isn't what other people think of me, it's knowing what I'm missing/have missed out on...and I don't mean plain old monogamous relationships. :-/
