[quote=The_Nameless_Bard][quote=TheSilverDust]Oh...[/quote]Well, it's important to understand that virginity is a social construct. The nonsense about breaking a women's hymen the first time she has sex is exactly that, nonsense.[/quote]

[quote=TheSilverDust]It's a metaphor, Sig Lady![/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard][quote=TheSilverDust]It's a metaphor, GIF Lady![/quote]Except there are people who actually think the hymen is a membrane covering the vaginal opening that needs to be "broken" the first time a woman has sex, so there's a lot more to it than that. Also, it's a stupid metaphor.[/quote]

[quote=GrandmasterD][quote=The_Nameless_Bard][quote=TheSilverDust]Oh...[/quote]Well, it's important to understand that virginity is a social construct.[/quote] Well, by definition, you can be a virgin, but the social aspect obviously comes from how much weight people put on it. You have had sex with a lot more people than I have, does that bother me? Not in the slightest, because everyone is different and it took me a long time to realise that sex was actually something I was genuinely interested in on an emotional level, and that it was not just something physical. "Taking someone's virginity" and all equivalent phrases are not 100% nonsense, because, by the definition of virginity, that can happen, but it's nothing more than something that's in our heads; there's a first time for everything. Far more important is how you deal with that properly, and, personally, I really wouldn't put too much emphasis at that; sex is, like most other things, something someone has to practice, but, there's always that first time when you're with a different person, which changes everything. Hence, I wouldn't consider the very first time to be all that important, bar the emotional aspect for the person themselves.[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard][quote=Embracing]http://www.newhealthadvisor.com/What-Does-Pop-Your-Cherry-Mean.html[/quote]I just said the hymen doesn't get popped. If you're actually tearing someone's hymen, which doesn't usually, unless there's something wrong, cover the vaginal opening entirely and is also stretchy, you're probably not letting them get relaxed enough or just not using enough lube. Bleeding does not have to be some "normal" part of having sex for the first time and it'd be cool if we stopped scaring girls into thinking their first time will hurt.[/quote]
