Is it normal i don't care about anyone's virginity?

Everyone has the right to wait.
Everyone has the right to have sex.

People seem to place a value on the first time, though. Does it really matter if the first person was the 'right' one? Chances are, they won't be. Why do people wait til their mid 20's and beyond, to lose it to someone special? I would have thought that as long as it's safe, and you both want to do it... isn't that the 'right' person?

The only value I place on losing virginity is that it's often a pretty funny story.

I understand a lot of people on this site believe it's important to wait for someone special (at least from what I've read on other posts). Please share your comments below! Thanks team.

P.S.
I'm not a sex maniac or anything, I've only had sex with two people. Both were relatively long-term girlfriends. I lost my virginity when I was 17, with a girl I dated for a couple years. I'm currently 25.

    I agree with you as far as I'm concerned it really dose not matter some people come off as desperate when they worry about getting sex.
    I just follow the flow and what ever comes to me in life I tend to follow it.
    Life has a crazy way of working.

    Anyways I also understand why some might want to wait it tends to vary but it's how some people work.

    I dont care about virginity. If I was falling for a girl and found out she were a virgin it would be a slight turn off. I prefer sex crazed degenerate women.

    I used to believe that your first time was important, so I didn't just do it with anybody. There were a couple of times I could've lost it but I didn't feel like the time was right (maybe I just wasn't ready for it anyway). I don't believe that anymore though, now I just think it's stupid that we put so much emphasis on the first time for sex but not for any other activity. But now I feel like it's too late to just 'do it with anybody', I've put it off for so long. It's on a pedestal so high I can't see it anymore. It's become a dream of mine now, like winning the lottery. I really feel my first time is ruined now before it's begun, no matter what kind of first time I have now I'm not going to enjoy it. I'll be way too neurotic about it. So I should really just get out there and just do it and get it over with, and then I can get over any regret I have afterwards and move on. But I'm terrified of that regret though.

      "The best is the enemy of the good."

      In other words, holding out for some idealised perfection can lead to paralysis, and you missing out on experiencing things which fall far short of perfection, but are still very good and worthwhile.

      Lol same here. but I still think it should be somewhat special, otherwise it's easy enough to just hook up with anyone. It's not appealing without the emotional connection to go with it, imo. but most people seem in a rush to the sex, 3rd date custom and all that. so I just don't even bother. would rather it start with a close friendship instead of dating anyway. seems like it would be less pressure / expectations that way

    My first time wasn't with the "right" person, he turned out to be a little prick who spread rumours about me. That was upsetting. But the second person was "right" - we really thought that we were in love (in the way teenagers do) and he was a lovely guy, really respected me. In hindsight it would have been better if I'd lost it to him instead of the first guy, but it doesn't really matter now. It was so long ago. I can't think of any genuinely meaningful reason why it would be worth going back in time and changing it, if I could.

    I guess what I'm saying is that I agree with you - it doesn't matter as much as we might think it does. You sure can save yourself a lot of heartache though if you wait for someone who loves and respects you.

  • Why does virginity come up so often on here?

    Personally I want my first time bro be special and after that to be plentiful. We each have our own desires on it

    Having sex for the first time is something that almost everyone remembers, so it's good if it's not terrifying, painful or so incredibly awkward that it leaves you feeling like you're a total idiot.

    Ideally, I think everyone would go through the process with someone who is patient, genuinely likes them as a person, and has at least some sexual experience, and it would happen in a setting where both people feel safe, secure and relaxed. Because it has so much significance for some people and because most people are worried about doing or saying something stupid or getting it wrong, it's not unusual for people to be nervous. That can lead to men experiencing erectile failure and women being tensed up and un-lubricated. Neither of those things is conducive to enjoyable sex. Both are more likely if the sex is hurried and furtive, and neither of the people really know what they hell they're doing.

    I agree that it's stupid to refuse to have sex until you find the person you believe is your perfect partner. It's entirely possible for a person who is perfect for you in every other way to be totally crap in the sack. If you have no standard by which to judge the sexual chemistry between you and Mr or Miss Perfect and their abilities, preferences, and expectations, you can end up stuck in a relationship where the sex is really not that great. Odds are that, sooner or later, you're going to figure that out, and that can lead to regrets, bitterness, or unfaithfulness.

    As it should be.

    aaaand the post goes on to condradict the title...ok then. "safe and you both want to" is very subjective, level of comfort differs greatly. why you worried about it?

    • How does the post contradict the title?
      I'm not sure what you're saying is very clear.

        Title: "I don't care about anyone's virginity"
        Rest of the post: asks a bunch of questions about it and want to know about people's virginity

        • Ah, I get it now. It would be more accurate of me to say "I don't value anyone's virginity".

            my bad, ya I kinda figured that's what you meant after i read it again. a lot of people do value it in others, which is kinda weird, like some guys would be grossed out and upset if their gf isn't a virgin. so I guess its good if youre saying youre not like that
