Ephramed:
well am not saying being a virgin is bad infact it's great.But what get's to me is that SOME of them all they have to offer in RELATIONSHIP/MARRIAGE is their VIRGINITY after that nothing.
1. some of them are very rude and very lazy.they have no intention of learning.
2. those that insult others, remain in that status because they have no opportunity of socializing, given which they might be worst than those non-virgin.
3. you that have faced the worst temptation and still come out clean is not a guarantee to insult others that failed. temperament differs.
AND IF THE ONLY THING YOU HAVE TO OFFER IN UR RLXSHIP/MARRIAGE IS UR VIRGINITY. I PITY THAT UNION.

dont generalize

Not a nice thing to say.
