Finally, what about all those bloody sheets? Rushed,
nonsensual, poorly lubricated, piston-like
intercourse might abrade sensitive womanly tissue
enough to cause bleeding. But throughout history,
in cultures that have insisted on female virginity at
marriage, the stakes have been very high. No
blood on the sheets deeply dishonored the bride's
family and might even bring charges of marital
fraud. Many brides have taken no chances. Often
under their mothers' direction, they have filed a
fingernail to a sharp point and on their wedding
night, cut themselves on the thigh, producing
enough blood to stain the sheets and satisfy
tradition--and the mythology surrounding the
hymen.Finally, what about all those bloody sheets? Rushed,

Not every virgin bleeds,if she is well lubricated and without forceful thrusting frm the man,she will nt bleed.

Nice topic.
@ OP! Finally you have put to rest my troubled mind. Have been meaning to ask this as a question but shame will not allow me. I remembered my first experience after waitng 4 years I was really humiliated and embarrassed. On that special day lo and behold no blood. I was believed to have been lying and pretending all along that I was untainted when I was not. Till this day I keep asking myself what went wrong. I don't ever contribute when issues bout virginity is being discussed. I am still dyingg of the shame within me.

Thank God your doubts have been put to rest. Truth illuminates

Interesting article. I've always wondered how it's possible for virgin women to menstruate if the hymen is supposed to be a covering. And why people say athletes often lose theirs before they have penetrative sex. Now I know better, thanks smiley


Now I'm stuck with wondering why women even have hymens to start with.

Oh my dear, I am wondering too why men still got theirs and still urinate.No bi only women dey get hymen. No worry, men equally got their own hywomen and that's why we deposit hot one inside your........................ Men have what we call hywomen. We loose our own when women rape us when we are young.

Na lie. Two of them makes life. Who told you to say that? Man go die if him no f----ck woman, Walahi. Do you think men commit crime just like that for nothing? It is because they needed to impress women hence they get involved in crime. That is to say that without that, man go die. Why do you hear some great men falling for just a small girl? Ask Yerima why he keep buying under aged girls. He will tell you because if he fail to f---ck, him go die.

It was thought that the vermiform appendix had no function. But today, it is known to have some immunological functions (it is a Gut Associated Lymphoid Tissue, GALT), and also houses some commensal (good) bacteria, which compete with other harmful ones.

That's why I still maintain "no function as at now" for the hymen, cos new discoveries are possible.

The summary is to:
1. Allay the fears some ladies face concerning the mythical pain they will experience during their first intercourse.

2. Debunk the fallacy, that the absence of hymen means the girl isn't a virgin, since most women naturally, have the annular(widely open) type of hymen.

3. assert that under normal conditions, an average girl will not bleed on her first intercourse.
4...

I never bled on my first intercourse and till tomorrow d guy didn't believe I was a virgin. He said I lied. Till now I still carry d pain dat I was not appreciated even after keeping my virginity till 23. Sober

Well, the ruptured hymen can, but rarely is the cause of the bleeding. But you can share with us your own experience, that's if you've been disvirgined. LOL!
I agree with u,cos I did'nt experience any bleeding,just some very uncomfortable pains that wore off after several hours.The general myth of post-coital bleeding at first coital experience does'nt apply to everyone & its not by force.

LOL.
First principle is: never say never. This is because the ejaculate of an average normal man is about 4miliLiters. He also has at least 20 million sperm cells per miliLiter. This gives a minimum of 80million sperms cells per ejaculate. If you subtract the bad and weak ones, you are still likely to have at least about 40million sperm cells per ejaculate. Now out of these millions, only 1 (one) sperm cell fertilises the ovum(female egg).

However, the pregnancy is almost impossible, cos:
1.semen is viscous (gelly-like) and cannot easily trickle down into her womanliness.
2.within 20 minutes, the semen liquifies (changes from the gelly-like form to watery form).
3. within this time, that the sperm cells are outside the body, almost all of them would have been dead.
4.the distance sperm cells travel to meet the egg is quite far, so penetrative intercourse helps reduce this distance, so that the spermatozoa can conserve their energy store for the great journey ahead. If this is not done, they get exhausted along the way and all die.

So, I don't think the pregnancy resulted from that incidence.
