What's So Great About Being A Virgin Anyway by Nobody: 4:20pm On Oct 13, 2015
The first time I was leaving for school, both my mum and dad gave me the ‘heart to heart' talk. My mum sneered at me throughout while telling me to get pregnant if I want because it's my body and my life and I'll face the repercussions alone. That was it, no “call me, tell me everything" or all of that love. It was hurtful cause it seemed she didn't even trust or know me. My dad on the other hand told me there will be friends and parties and boys. I shouldn't deny or ignore these cause it's all a part of growing but what I could do is protect myself against STDs and unwanted pregnancies. I could choose to be abstinent, or use a condom if I don't feel my partner is being faithful.
I was 17 then. Guess whose words I took. Surely dad's.
Comparing both my parents, it's evident why it was so easy to follow my dad, because he was realistic enough to tell me the truth, not hide behind the shadow of “my daughter will be the holy virgin Mary", unlike my mum who went into all that crap about if you lose your virginity, you won't get a great life blah blah blah.
Sure, abstinence during a relationship is a great idea, you guys wanna tie the knot before rumbling between the sheets? No problem, you have my support on that. But that doesn't even come close to making your relationship better than mine just because my boyfriend and I are already doing the ‘deed'. It doesn't mean my boo doesn't respect or love me or thinks I'm not worth settling down with.
Society doesn't frown at girls that are non virgins, society frowns at girls that have no moral compass. I'm not a virgin doesn't mean I'm a slut or LovePeddler, it doesn't make me a bad influence or morally loose. In fact, nowadays, girls who appear to be all calm and gentle and are always wearing bazuka skirt all around the place might be the sex workers my brother picks up every night, while the club stripper everyone knows and sneers at might be the misunderstood virgin.
If you're a virgin, flaunt it. If you aren't a virgin, hiding or lying about it shouldn't be an option. There's no shame in it. When every girl is claiming to be a virgin, abeg, who are the guys having sex with then?
Not being a virgin is not an equivalence that I'm polluting my body with multiple sexual partners. I don't support prostitution or one night stands or casual flings, I don't support being sexually active when both your body, mind, heart and soul aren't ready. We abuse these freedom and rights and that's why abstinence keeps getting drummed into our ears.
Stop hiding the fact that you're not a virgin. I mean. What's so great about being a virgin anyway? Why can't we all just defend ourselves and our choices and be okay with being who we are? Do think on this. Take care.

our society and the world at large has been immorally active and shame has been thrown into the dustbin of history that's why a lady sees nothing bad in loosing her virginity before her boy friend/Husband-to-be takes her to the Alta.
In the days of the old, there is nothing as shameful as loosing your virginity before marriage, not only to the lady in question but also to the entire family of such lady. but today we call it Civilization/Globalization/Socialization just to justify our abysmal lifestyle and jeopardizing our hereafter.
For one who cares to listen. !!!

As we all knw, all fingers are nt equal, some people find demselves in sm circumstances dey can't really avoid cos dey need some to feed on. Nt all strippers do it out of a willingly heart, some really av no choice and dey wuld rather nt sleep with diff men to make a living.

this you are saying is so different from what you av said and what she said as well; losing your virginity bkos circumstances it quiet understanding to some limit than doing it bkos someone asked you to,or you want pple to think you are a big girl/boy.....is trash to me
Re: What's So Great About Being A Virgin Anyway by Nobody: 9:21pm On Oct 18, 2015
then I don't think you get what he's saying or what I ( op here) was trying to say. The main point of the post, no one should hide the fact that they aren't virgins, if you did it out of free will, be ready to defend yourself and stop lying to us. Not being a virgin shouldn't also be used as a base to judge character, 99.9% of the guys antagonizing girls who aren't virgins aren't virgins themselves. Do you get it now?
