virginity story 28
|
|
| |
what does "losing
your virginity" mean to you? - define the term, and then tell us
about what the experience signified for you...
|
|
It means
giving your last gift to that person; entrusting
them with the thing that makes you a woman; completing the
void that a woman's body naturally creates. For me
personally, it signified the end of a year-long trial when he
did not want to have sex and I did. It also signified a new
tier of commitment in our relationship.
|
|
| |
what were
your expectations of what the experience would be like prior to losing
your virginity?
|
|
I expected
sex to be the most fulfilling physical experience
of my life. I thought I would feel full from wall to wall
inside my vagina.
|
|
| |
how old were
you, and was this the age when expected or intended to lose your virginity?
|
|
I was
19, in the midst of a 3 year relationship. I was
prepared to lose my virginity at this time, but I expected to
wait until marriage because of my boyfriend's wishes.
|
|
| |
what did
it feel like? was there blood? did your partner know it was your first
time and did you talk about it before?
|
|
It felt
commonplace. We had done so much fingering and other
things that it was much more ordinary than I expected. There
was no blood until the second time. We had talked at length
about it, probably for a month prior. We waited until the
perfect night on the beach to finally commit.
|
|
| |
what did
your mother, family, friends tell you about losing your virginity...
|
|
My
mother always told me to wait until I was married. She
stopped saying this when I got caught in bed with my
boyfriend in high school. Ever since, I am certain she thinks
I have been having sex, despite the fact that it is
relatively new. My friends, on the whole, were virgins
themselves and told me to wait until marriage.
|
|
| |
what would/did you tell
your daughter about losing her virginity...
|
|
I will tell her to
wait until she is married, but I will not
be disappointed if she makes careful choices like I did.
First and foremost, I will not allow sex to be a taboo
subjecct in my household, so she will be free to ask the
questions and confide in me the way I cannot do with my own
mother.

this conversation
makes me think...
|
|
Of calling my
boyfriend up to make love right now.
