virginity

The first context in which I head "Virgin" was "Virgin Mary." So I thought it meant female Saint, or holy woman.

when i was little I used to think that when you drank a virgin margarita it meant that you had to stay virgin the rest of the day.

drink=no sex!

My sister used to tell me that virgins were people who haven't been kissed, and my uncle told me that a pervert is someone who farts in the bathtub and bites the fart bubbles.

In pre-school I had a girl friend who I used to take baths with when my mom had to babysit her. Of course we would do 'naughty' things and I always just thought she had a really really small 'pee pee'.

When I was about 10, some rude boys at the little store I rode my bike to asked me if I was a virgin. I was generally a very smart girl and didn't want to admit I didn't know what one was, but the way they said it made it sound disgusting, so I said "No!"

When i was about 6, i got virgin mixed up with virgo. I used to tells my friends i was a virgin, and ask them if they were. They'd say no and i'd laugh at them.

When I was about 9 or 8 I though a verginity was another name for a Barbie doll. So one day i went to school and told my friend " I lost My verginity last night " cause I lost my doll. The teacher heard me and I got in trouble and did't understand why.

I used to think that if you were a virgin it meant you had sex before. little did i know it was the other way around. I thought this beucase the stupid boys in our 4th grade class would go around asking you if you were a virgin. if you said yes it was bad, and if you said no they would leave you alone. so for years some crude jokes or whatever by kids would say are you a virgin i'd say no. even though i was i was i had it backwards. lol.

At the age of about 8 my older friends convinced me that being a virgin was being a very very nice person. Consequently, I went around asking people - lots of adults - if they were virgins. Boy did my mom beat me for that one!

I used to believe that if you were a virgin you had had sex before. So when I learned about 'the virgin Mary' I always thought it was weird that the church would always talk about this woman who openly admitted she'd had sex.

I was raised in a Catholic home in which my parents both lost their virginities to each other after marriage and consequently thought that losing your virginity was synonymous with getting married.

when i was 12 or so, i had to go to an afterschool care, not many other kids my age went there so i often just stayed away from the younger kids.
one day i was bored so i started asking all the young kids if they were virgins, they all thought it was bad and all answered 'no'. i laughed so much.
a teacher found out and told the principal.
i got a detention.

I used to think virgins were saints.

I used to think that oral sex was the same thing as french kissing. I also used to think that french kissing made you lose your virginity. up untill I was around 14 or 15 I thought that handjobs, fingering, oral, etc. counted as sex and losing your virginity. nobody told me this, I just drew these conclusions myself

When the word "virgin" popped up in the 7th or 8th grade, during a health or science lesson, I never related it to sex. In fact at the time I just thought they meant "virgin" as in, The Virgin Mary, and at the time, as embarrassing as this is to admit, I didnt really understand why they called The Virgin Mary, The Virgin Mary anyway. I never would put sex and religion together. Virgin, was just a word i didnt know.

I have a painfully vague memory of being 14, and my older sister and brother being 16-18. My dad was talking about the Virgin Mary and explained to us that a virgin was "A girl who wasn't married".
Thank god for then internet.
