#virginity
First, my name is Vinny I was 19 and still living at home with my parents when this took place. I was dating this sexy Asian girl on and off for like 2 years in High School, her name was Ashley. One Saturday night, we went to a party. Her friend Jackie drove us in her to the party. Her friend ended up getting wasted and I had to drive her car and us all home. So I figured instead of having to drive across town after drinking to drop her off, We all would just go back to my parent’s house for the night.
I was a several sport athlete so very fit and a pretty handsome guy. Ashley was 18 at the time and she was pretty. She was about 5’4, brown hair brown eyes. She ran a lot and was in pretty good shape. She had a decent sized chest. I’d say big B’s or little C’s. Her friend Jackie was a blonde haired girl 18 a little thicker but not fat and a little taller than Ash. She had a bigger chest too. I wanted her bad. She was very sexy.
We get back to my parents house and head on inside. I lived in a tri level house. You would come in the front door and you can either go up or down. The downstairs was where my bedroom and hang out area was. My parent’s room was up stairs and on the opposite side of the house from me. So I had quite a bit of privacy down there smoked lots of pot down there. We headed down and her friend went right to the bathroom. She had to pee the whole way home. Ashley and I went upstairs and grabbed some late night munchies, a bottle of whiskey, and some shot glasses. We came back down and took a shot each. I loaded the pipe with some weed I had gotten at the party.
Jackie came in from the bathroom closed the door to the basement. I immediately noticed she had changed in to a white t-shirt and red gym shorts. They were so short that you could nearly see her cheeks hanging out the bottom of them. I also realized she wasn’t wearing a bra. I could see her nipples right through her tight white tee. They were half dollar sized and kind of hard. I could only wonder what she was wearing under those shorts if anything at all. She sat on the couch across from us. Ash poured us all another shot. I couldn’t help but keep glancing at her chest. I noticed my cock start to stir and a bulge formed in my pants. I tore my eyes away from her chest. I waited for my bulge to go down before asking if they wanted to go in my room to smoke the weed I had loaded earlier. The girls nodded and I led the way into my bedroom.
We sat in a circle on my bed with our legs crossed Indian style. As Jackie shifted her legs underneath her, I caught a quick glimpse of her beautiful pink snatch. She wasn’t wearing anything underneath. I looked up at her face right into her eyes. She caught me looking and she smirked at me. Luckily, Ashley didn’t notice either of these events. We finished smoking and the girls went back out to the living room area. I changed into some loose basketball shorts incase I had a bulge, I could easily adjust myself.
I came out of the room and sat down on the couch next to Ash. Jackie had moved to sit next to ash while I was changing. There were three shots poured. We all took one and downed it. Ash got up to change as Jackie and I were both comfy. Ash disappeared into my room to change closing the door behind her.
Jackie turned to me with that same look she had when she caught me and whispered, “Did you catch a good glimpse?” I nodded. Her grin got a little bigger. She looked down at my pants and saw a big bulge in my shorts. Her grin got larger and she turned her body towards me. She pulled her shirt up and flashed me her gorgeous chest. She pulled her shit back down quickly. She grabbed the bit of her shorts covering up her pussy and pulled it to the side. I got a grand view of her beautiful snatch. She started to toy with it. She rubbed up and down her lips and on her clit. She slid a finger inside her and pulled it out. It was so shiny and wet. She stuck her hand up to my lips and parted them with her finger letting me taste her. She pulled her finger out and let go of her shorts and turned back to normal and grabbed the bottle to pour us all a shot.
Ash came out of the bedroom in an outfit just like Jackie. She turned on some music and then sat down in between Jackie and myself. I realized I had a huge bulge in my shorts and tried to hide it. I tucked it up in my shorts. We grabbed the shots Jackie poured and took them. After we set down the shot glasses, Jackie turned to Ash grabbed her and pulled her in for a kiss. Ash didn’t put up a fight at all. Instead she kissed her right back. They were making out with each other right in front of me. I reached around and grabbed Ashley’s tits outside her t shirt. Jackie reached down and pulled Ashley’s shirt right over her head. I grabbed Ashley’s hand and started to lead her to the bedroom and she grabbed Jackie’s hand. Jackie asked me if she could watch. “Yes,” I said.
We all went to the bedroom. I pulled off Ashley’s shorts. She wasn’t wearing any panties either. She pulled my shorts and boxer’s down and exposed my cock. I saw Jackie’s face light up. Ashley pushed me on to the bed. I scooted back a little and lied down so my head was on the pillows. Ashley started stroking me and then put me in her mouth, licking the head as she sucked on my member. I looked over at Jackie she was rubbing herself under her shorts. I motioned for her to come over. She came up next to Ashley and pulled her head up and kissed her. They came down together and both started sucking on my cock at the same time both licking and taking turns taking it in their mouths. Then Ashley came up and straddled my face. I started to lick her sweet tight pussy. Jackie continued to suck me off. I couldn’t take much of this. I had a face full of Ash’s pussy. I could only muffle I’m cumming. I bucked my hips a little forcing my dick deeper in her throat and came. She gagged a little and some cum dribbled out of her mouth down her chin. Ashley licked it off.
I flipped Ash over on the bed so she was on her back and pulled her down to the bottom of the bed. Jackie was sitting next to her. I pulled Jackie’s top off her head exposing her beautiful big tits. Ashley grabbed her shorts and started to pull them down. I grabbed Jackie’s hand and pulled her up, so that she could slide her shorts all the way off her ass and down her legs. Jackie’s sexy naked body got me hard again. I told them to make out again now that they were both naked. Jackie straddled Ash and started to kiss her. Ash fell back on the bed and Jackie went with her. I saw both pussies right in front of me. I bent down and started licking Jackie’s tasty snatch. While I licked her, I reached down and started rubbing Ashley’s clit. I ate Jackie’s pussy like I had never eaten a pussy before. She started shaking. Ashley must have felt this because she rolled over on top of her. I continued to eat Jackie’s pussy but Ashley had mounted Jackie’s mouth. I could hear Jackie’s muffled moan and then her juices gush out of her. I tried to lap it all up. I stood up and leaned over and kissed Ashley.
I picked Ashley up and set her down on the bed next to Jackie. And I slid my cock into her soaking wet pussy. Jackie was catching her breath a little. She lifted her head and looked at us. She came down in between my legs and tongued my balls while I slid in and out of her friend. I pulled my cock out of Ash and stuck it in Jackie’s mouth. Jackie gagged on my cock causing me to pop out of her mouth. I told her to get on top of Ashley and kiss her. So she did. I slid my cock back into Ash. I pulled it out and rubbed the entry of Jackie’s pussy with my cock slowly sliding into her. She was so hot and tight and wet. I could barely go in as wet as she was. I felt my cock hit a wall inside her. I realized Jackie was a virgin. I pulled back and pushed back in slowly getting her used to my girth. Ashley slid back up the bed and Jackie started to lick her pussy. I felt like Jackie was ready. She stopped eating Ash’s beautiful snatch and turned and mouthed take me. I want you to take it. Then she started to eat Ashley’s snatch again. I pulled out till my head was all that was left in her and shoved it all the way deep inside her. I broke her wall and heard her muffle scream into Ashley’s pussy. I set there for a minute not moving my cock at all. I slowly pulled out and pushed back in. I got her nice and used to my 8 inch cock all the way inside her. I started to fuck her harder and faster but, I couldn’t take much more of her tight little twat. I turned her over so I could cum on her stomach. I was reaching my shooting point and started to pull out when she wrapped her legs around me and pulled me back into her she moaned I am cumming and I told her I was going to cum I started to pull out again. She wouldn’t let me just pulled me in tighter. I couldn’t hold it and I came deep inside her snatch.
I pulled her to the edge of the bed so her ass was hanging off the bed. I told Ashley to come down here and get on her knees. She did as I said. I pulled out of her and cum started to run out of her. Ashley knew what I wanted. She lapped up all the cum oozing out of her friends tight twat. I went up to Jackie’s mouth and shoved my cock deep down her throat. She gagged again. I popped out of her mouth. I told her to suck me clean. She did. I got up and walked behind Ashley and pushed her up on top of Jackie and with a mouth full of my cum she hadn’t swallowed yet they started making out. This got me hard again. I pulled Ashley down to the bottom of the bed so she could eat Jackie’s pussy some more. I stuck my hard cock inside of her. I fucked her pussy real good thinking about the whole situation. I started to fuck her harder and faster. I was staring at Jackie while I fucked Ashley. She looked at me staring into my eyes. I came deep inside my girlfriend. She collapsed on to the bed. Jackie treated Ashley to the same clean up she had. She slurped every last drop up. Ashley climbed up into bed and so did Jackie I climbed in between them. I faced towards Jackie. Ashley snuggled up to me spooning me .I spooned Jackie. I smiled as I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

Apollo: Sister, what are you the goddess of?
Artemis: *lounging by a spring on piles of deerskin surrounded by three dozen naked girls with a dead pan expression* Virginity.
“Heracles, they’re lesbians”.
Note that the concept of “virginity” in Ancient times merely meant “unmarried”, and had nothing to do with sexual activity. Some priestesses were “virgins” because they chose (or were committed to) a life of worship, but it was merely a question of social status, not of personal choice or practice. Of course, one can suppose that this lifestyle would be rather attractive for lesbians.
So when Artemis is said to be the Goddess of Virgins, it is meant to be understood as “Goddess of Unmarried Women”, or, quite possibly literally, of lesbians.
(It’s only Christianity that reframed the concept of virginity to mean “never had sex”. Many ancient religions has “Virgin goddesses”, which symbolized feminine power, and in this case too it meant “untied to a man”, or “whole for herself”)Holy shit….. this just made the Virgin Mary thing make sense, in so much as the Catholic Church claims she didn’t have sex to conceive Jesus, but in reality it means that she wasn’t married at the time.
This is why it’s so important to understand where language came from, and the history that was going on at the time as well. If you look at every single thing through the lens of your modern day, you are at risk to wind up missing the original meaning and how it pertained to society at that time.
OKAY I JUST LEARNED THIS IN CLASS LIKE TWO DAYS AGO!!! IM A SOPHMORE IN COLLEGE AND I NEVER LEARNED THIS BEFORE!!!!
It changes so many things!!!! I’m so mad because this seems like an important detail to just leave out of education!!!
You know DAMN well why it’s left out.
She’s also a protector of young girls, so girls who also aren’t married.
Artemis
She’s the protector of children in general, not just girls, and also maidens (virgins).
But yeah, that is basically the old definition and while it’s more than just lesbians (it still includes those who have no relations at all and some of the maiden Goddesses are not lesbians tho Artemis def is and I strongly see Athena as such, Hestia is not) it’s a great thing to know cause the meanings of ancient times are very important.
You must know context to understand history.
Also, to the ancient Greeksthis kind of sex did not count, they firmly believed sex needed to have a penis involved. Theyliterally could not imagine sex happening without involving a penis.
which is why the word Lesbian came from Sappho.The ancient Greeks we’re so perplexed by the thought of a girl being sexually interested in another girl that they started to refer to her as the “Lesbian” they literally meant “the girl from Lesbos” because it was very disrespectful to refer to non-married women by their actual name.
Artemiscould engage in as much sexual activity as she’d likebut so long as no penis is involved, to the ancient Greeks,she’s still a virgin.
However, if she were to have sex that involved a penis, even just once, her virgin rights would be immediately revoked: and unlike married goddesses or goddesses said to be tied to a god, virgins have A LOT of freedom.
I lost my virginity at the age of 15, to my 20 year old boyfriend. I don’t remember pleasure. When it started to feel okay, it was over. Not soon after that day, my boyfriend began acting erratic, and I learned of his bipolar issues. It was the first and last time we had sex.
I can recall what I was wearing and what was playing. I can not recall what his penis looked like, whether it was long or short, skinny or thick. I remember bleeding a little, but that’s it. It wasn’t really special or thought out. It was kind of rushed.
Would I do it over? Probably.
What was yours like?
I just bottomed for the second time ever with a random guy I met at the bar, (first time doing that ever) and I think I can safely say I’m never having sex again. It was painful, it was embarrassing, and it was nearly every one of my fears I’ve had come true, but thankfully he was really nice and understanding, probably because he realized how inexperienced I am. It could’ve been extremely worse, but thankfully it wasn’t, however any confidence I had about doing such a thing has certainly evaporated. I think I’ll probably just jerk off to porn for the rest of my life.
But yeah, basically as soon as I’m back in Albany, this really hot guy that had been hitting on me on Grindr since just before Christmas break is going to fuck my brains out for the first time. I don’t know how this happened, but I’m all sorts of nervous, anxious, excited, and horny in anticipation of this going down. I’ve never bottomed before (I’ve only had sex once before…), but I’ve sure as hell wanted to try for months now. His Adam4Adam profile says he’s a total dom top, which is just what I want: A big, sexy guy to take advantage of me and show me a good time. ;-)
FOOD FOR THOUGHTS: THE VIRGINITY THING
There is this pressure placed on young women to remain virgin until they marry or find ‘’the one’’, but why is that? If virginity is so sacred, why is it not a requirement for boys? That got me wondering…
Here are 3 discourses used to keep women from having sex:
1.The religious discourse: To keep women from having sex, society uses religion shaming, telling girls that‘’God’’ will punish them or reject them if they have sex before marriage. In other words, there is so much emphasis placed on a woman’s body that religion leads her to believe that it’s the only value she has before God…The irony is, ‘’God’’ doesn’t seem to care if young men have sex…according to religion. How can we explain that? Double standard much?
2.The romantic discourse: People often tell young women they will regret it if they do it too soon, they need to wait for ‘’The One’’, they will NEVER GET THEIR VIRGINITY BACK, so they need to make sure they give it to the ‘’right guy’’, they will inevitably fall in love with the sexual partner, so they need to choose ‘’The One’’.
The real issue at play here is that a young woman is pressured into waiting for a man to allow her to experience her own sexuality. Her sexuality does not happen on her own terms, it is on religion’s terms, on society’s terms, on ‘’The One’s’’ terms. Her body doesn’t belong to her as it is considered a gift to be given to’’the one’’. This is disempowering woman, keeping them in shame, unrealistic expectations and fear. There is so much emphasis placed on the first time, as if after that ‘’sacred’’ first time, a woman has nothing to offer, she becomes used, unpure, etc. But the truth is, sex can be meaningful and romantic at any time. Just because it wasn’t your first time doesn’t mean you have failed your significant other.
3. The pain discourse: Then there is the whole discourse about terrible pain, disgusting bleeding, everything to describe the first time as an almost violent event. The thing is, sex won’t hurt that much if you use lube, and take your time. It must be done properly but no, not everyone ends up bleeding, in pain, and hopelessly in love with the sexual partner. These are just lies to keep girls from having sex through fear and shame.
All those lies about virginity that are fed to women and girls all over the world are not here to help them make the right decision, despite the appearances. It’s not about protecting ang cherishing women. It’s a matter of controle. It’s exclusively about controle of the woman’s sexuality, of the her body,of the way she perceives herselves, controle over her actions. Do not be fooled.
Live your sexuality on your own terms, it’s your body, it’s your life. You can choose to wait or not, but it has to be a decision you are happy with. So listen to yourself and your needs, use protection and birth control, talk to a health specialist for information or talk to a counsellor, and ask trusted ones for advice, but do not believe the 3 shaming discourses.
The same people that label a sexually active girl as a slut, are the same people that will label as a virgin prude or frigid. Having sex doesn’t make you a good or a bad person. It doesn’t make you superior or inferior to other girls, it doesn’t change your worth.
Sex is a normal part of life so protect yourself and your freedom

Sex Fact: Virginity is a social construct. There is no one definition of what virginity is.
Your first time is NOT supposed to hurt
You are NOT supposed to bleed
If you bleed, that is NOT your hymen being ‘popped’, it is a tear due to lack of sexual arousal and natural lubrication.
This is all a MYTH perpetrated by men so they don’t have to make sure you are comfortable and sufficiently aroused enough before you have sex with them. It is an excuse to disregard and hurt you.
I just really want women to know this.
by Nadia
There’s lots of messages you hear about virginity growing up. “It’s a special gift to save for your one true love”. “It’s embarrassing and you need to lose it asap”. “No one wants to sleep with a virgin because they’re clingy”. Virginity or lack thereof is used to judge a person’s worth, especially women’s ‘purity’. I certainly felt the double edged sword of prude vs slut when I was younger.
Historically it’s was an idea created because we lived in a very patriarchal society where men owned everything including women. When a father gave his daughter to her husband he wanted to get the best deal. Before birth control and DNA paternity tests virginity was a way to prove paternity and increase a woman’s value. There’s a lot of this still represented in modern weddings with white dresses for purity and fathers walking their daughters down the aisle and giving the daughter away but the patriarchal institute of marriage is a rant for another time.
Ideas around virginity are sexist. Male virginity historically doesn’t seem to be such a big deal. There was no physical value put on about it in the same way as women. Nowadays men may be judged higher if they’re not a virgin putting pressure on men to start having sex early. It’s often a prize for men to take a woman’s ‘flower’ and potentially shameful for a woman to be ‘plucked’.
Virginity is a very heteronormative cis idea. It’s often classed as penis in vagina penetration. For many people that is not the type of sex they have. What sex is can be a somewhat personal decision. Sexual activity can include oral and anal and using fingers. I’d personally class it as stimulating each other’s genitals for the purpose of pleasure. Only classing penis in vagina penetration as sex dismisses the sexual experiences of the LGBTIQ communities and other people who choose not to have that type of sex.
Virginity is not a physical thing. For men it is not detectable if you’ve ever had sex and looking at the hymen as a test virginity in women is dodgy at best. The hymen is a thin elastic membrane that partially covers the external vaginal opening. This can be different sizes naturally and can be torn from activities before you ever have sex such as tampon use and exercise. When you have sex you stretch the hymen, no need to break. So the idea of breaking the hymen or ‘popping your cherry’ the first time you have sex is not so true.
The first time you have sex doesn’t need to be painful. I thought I was so wise and clued up thinking vaginal penetration was painful for women at first. It really doesn’t need to be. Pain is usually from the vaginal muscles being too tense. If you are inexperienced, too rough or too rushed, then it may be painful and cause the hymen to tear and bleed (hence giving the pain and hymen myths). If you take your time, do plenty of foreplay and use lube then it can be a much more enjoyable experience for those involved.
Having sex isn’t a life altering event. There is no great psychological change that comes from having sex for the first time. With all the social pressure to have or not have sex it can feel very important. Just remember it doesn’t change who you are.
Having sex for the first time can be an important milestone but it doesn’t define your value. You don’t lose anything when you ‘lose your virginity’. So if you’re two consenting adults wanting to engage in sexual activity then go for it. If you’re not ready and want to wait to later to start engaging in sexual activity, then don’t feel pressured to do anything you don’t want to.
This is so nicely written!

The moment I first felt my baby slide inside me was the closest thing to a religious experience I’ve ever experienced
And I came immediately
Kik smiledom
If u are open minded lady and never shy from anything kik me.i am here for you.
Daddy loves you.
Okay so i have to talk about this. It’s going to be a little rant-y and a little long, so if it’s not your thing, move along.
An Introduction
I’m 27, almost 28, with no prior sexual experience. In fact, I’ve never even kissed the opposite gender (that’s what I’m attracted to), I’ve never even held them in my hands. As someone with an extremely high libido (I can only presume it’s higher than the average person’s at the very least), the lack of sexual fulfillment is more than just a little frustrating. If you look at Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, Sex is down there with the basic needs along with food and water. I’m not even talking about sexual intimacy, which is btw 2 levels above. Like just pure, raw sex, is a basic need. We are biologically wired to have sex. That’s what all life does. Yet as someone who’s about to pass their sexual prime without having one physical interaction with the opposite gender (or the same if you roll that way), this becomes more than frustration. Imagine this: starve yourself of food and water for a week; what’s the outcome? What, I can’t compare sex to eating and drinking, because one means life depends on it? In a biological sense, sex is the same. Without it, life can’t continue (in a reproductive sense). You’d go cannibals if we didn’t have anything else to eat. And that’s where the sense of a sexual craze and deprivation comes in. Being without that physical interaction, you’d slowly go mad. Frustration turns to anger turns to madness. And before you say “just have sex then,” it’s not that easy for some of us. Not everyone is fortunate enough to be in a place in their lives where that’s easily accessible.
What it’s like
So what’s it like being an adult without any sexual experience? It’s hell at best. With the openness of the internet and public opinion of sex, it becomes harder and harder to live within a society that expects you to have a degree of sexual understanding. Listening to people’s stories and experiences, only makes us envious of what we could also be having. And I know this is the case for even people who are sexually active, but literally everything is a turn on. You find the smallest thing that turns you on, and you make yourself believe now that’s your fetish. He/she raises her hand for one second, you get a glimpse of skin that you don’t readily see as often as other parts that are normally exposed, and then you’ve got yourself a boner/you’re wet. You go home, you masturbate to let out some of that sexual tension. Doesn’t help. You masturbate intensely, no relief. You masturbate violently, only to fuel your frustrations more at the end of it; that how can you stoop so low to masturbate to what you just masturbated to, just because you can’t even have 1 second of sexual action. You do this every day, multiple times a day. I’ll have you know on average I masturbate 5 times every day, with my records hitting around 8 times in a single day. And unfortunately, I know I’d be doing it a lot more if “life matters” didn’t get in the way of it. Yes, life will start getting in the way of fulfilling your sexual needs. That’s what it feels like. You see couple holding hands, making out, you watch porn and how they fuck in every way you wish you were fucking and you start to loathe everyone just because you can’t be with a single person, to even do the basic shit with. Even a kiss is porn to me. I don’t go swimming, because women in bikinis is porn to me. When all I’ve seen of the other gender is their face, that’s what starts turning me on. 90% of the time you’ll find me cumming to a pic of someone’s face rather than their body. Because that’s the only thing I see outside of my screen. So naturally that’s what I’ll gravitate towards.
Some other Thoughts
Not every person is fortunate enough to have sex. Whether it’s past experiences, current circumstances or other life matters, virgins have their reasons for being virgins. At the same time, those virgins such as I, with extremely high libidos and high levels of perversion, we have our reasons for being into what we’re into. We all get grouped under terms like “beta” or “incel” or “simp,” but that only does more harm than good. Do you think we like being mocked? No one does, unless that’s your kink I guess. You have to remember, even though we’re in our 20’s, 30’s, or even more, our sexual age is that of a teenager. That’s when our sexual needs became a thing, and they haven’t once been fulfilled. And yes we will hump anything that remotely looks like can somehow provide sexual gratification. We’re horny, and we do some stupid shit to get some sexual relief. It’s sad, it’s depressing, it’s frustrating, it’s maddening. But at the end of each day, we masturbate ourselves to sleep, just as we started the day with masturbation. We have our dreams, we watch our porn, we obsess over a few people sexual whether they’re fictitious or not, we fantasize about them, we want to fuck the shit out of them for all of eternity. But in reality, we’d be happy to fuck anything that moves at this point.
If you read all of this, thank you for taking your time. If you have opinions on this, please share them. If this is how you feel too, please share. Doesn’t matter what gender you are or who you’re attracted to, we all have sexual desires, and it’s a fucking basic human need. Don’t shame us for being “thirsty.”
