Is it normal that i'm a 20 year old female and still a virgin?

So, I'm 20 years old (female) and still a virgin. I don't understand HOW that is so abnormal considering how ugly most men are, but apparently it is.
1. It isn't a religious thing
2. Religion aside, I am not waiting for marriage or intentionally waiting for "the right person"... I guess I am technically??? but not intentionally
3. I'm not a lesbian. I should have clarified that beforehand.
4. Nor am I asexual.
5. It isn't that I just can't get laid either... or maybe in a sense, it is??? but it's my own fault for being so picky.

It isn't any of those things. I feel like, if you're a boy, and a virgin, you are mocked. If you're a girl, you aren't mocked, but you are forced to explain yourself. WHY are you a virgin? As if you COULD explain it. The truth is it just hasn't happened yet. No reason. I guess if there is a reason, it's just that i'm the type of person who prefers to let things happen, naturally.

I'm not desperate to lose my virginity. I had a friend, 19 year old, also a virgin who felt like a freak for being one and so she just slept with some random ugly dude who she really didn't even want to sleep with. Is virginity really THAT important? I guess it is in our culture... sad, really.

But I don't want people, religious or otherwise, to congratulate me for doing something "commendable" either. It's not like I've had any real opportunities.

For one thing, humans are a terrible species so I don't really talk to anyone, let alone guys. I've only had one boyfriend, I've only kissed 2 guys. Many guys have hit on me (they'll hit on anything, even a horse), and of course, I've ignored them all, but I wouldn't really call that an "opportunity". I call it "creepiness". It's not like I'm "in the moment" or even attracted to these freaks.

I'm really picky, too. I can't help it. I'm picky with both looks AND personalities and being such a irrational idealist is hard when you have a shitty personality AND shitty looks.

I'm only asking this because I really do wonder if I'm ever going to lose my virginity. Like I said, I'm not desperate, and if any guys see this, DON'T flirt with me, I'll just ignore it or maybe even vomit, but sex is something that I would like to experience before I die, at least.

Is It Normal?

  • I think you have a terrible personality.
    You sound vain and think extremely highly of your opinionated self.

    If you want an answer to your original question, it is because you sound obnoxious.

    However, stop thinking that there is something wrong with being a virgin =/

  • Dude who cares (no offense) Society has made it seem like if you don't have sex your a loser man.

    Go back in time about 60-70 years ago most women waited till marriage to have sex. And go way way way way back you would get stoned if you had sex with a man before marriage.

    I honestly wish I waited for the right guy. I think every guy Ive had sex with was a mistake. Even though I felt like I was in love with them at the time. I should have waited until I knew for sure he was the right one.

    (also I should let you know that I only read like the first 2 paragraphs because it was kind of long sorry)

  • You shouldn't feel the need to justify the way you live your life because you are a virgin. In our society, people do put a lot of emphasis on it. It's your life not theirs, so it doesn't matter what everyone else thinks you should be doing. Stay true to yourself and don't worry about it.

  • so you judge everyone and yet dislike being judged?
    You prefer to let things happen naturally only if the person passes a bunch of rules and judgement from you and then only if the stars align... that's not really letting things happen naturally...
