Why is virginity mocked?

[sandwiches]

Err...
"...Why is virginity mocked?"

So mocking is a humble term????

What are you even talking about? He never said anything about "mocking" being a "humble term." Are you even reading what you quote?

Err...
THREAD TITLE....
"...Why is virginity mocked?"

So mocking is a humble term????

^ I don't think anyone in this thread that claimed that virgins or non-virgins are superior or inferior.

If you want sex, have it. If you don't, don't. Who cares?

Bolding for reading comprehension.

Didn't say he did.
He said no one is being intimidated or made fun of for being a virgin.

The very title of this thread indicates otherwise. Wasn't talking about this thread only.

Yes, people in this thread stated virginity is odd.

Can't YOU read?

^I'm sure anyone who's had sex even once outside of the sanctity of marriage constitutes 'harlot.'

Anyone who cares about virginity is a loser.

I didn't say no one is intimidated or made fun of for being a virgin. I said no one in this thread has said either way is superior/inferior.

Can YOU read?

I'm with Sammiches... it's not a gift or anything special.

Insults aside, virgins ARE mocked, like this poster stated:

If you are a guy and haven't had sex by the time you're in your mid 20s, you're usually assumed to be gay or socially inept/insecure.

Most people seem to expect you to have sexual experience by your mid 20s. Pursuing a relationship and having the other person find out you're a virgin in your late 20s early 30s usually results in an "Are you serious?!" reaction. This applies in both the straight and gay world.

Without experience, you tend to be viewed as a poor prospect for relationship material. It's pretty frustrating for those who are getting in their late 20s/30s and having to deal with overcoming the stigma.

Yea, maybe by other 15 year olds. I haven't heard any 'virgin mocking' since I left my teenage years behind.

Then many people are "losers."
Societal problem for sure.
The very title of this on-point thread shows those who haven't had sex by a certain age are looked down upon.

The title of this very thread shows those who haven't had sex by a certain age are looked down upon. Fact.

OK. Ignore them or cry about it. What else can you do?

"The 40 Year Old Virgin."

Sure. That movie was really ADMIRING and RESPECTING of older virgins.

Yes there are lots of losers out there who like to shame people for having sex. Also losers who make fun of people who haven't ever had sex. Usually it's women who suffer the former and men who suffer the latter, but it's all nonsense. Virginity doesn't matter.

 

[Belk]

I don't mock virgins. I mock people who think virginity matters.

 

[Larry Mondello]

Or search the web for "Rebecca St. James."
Was she REALLY a virgin?

Look at all the condescending and sneering attitude toward her, like it's physically impossible for a Christian woman to remain a virgin until marriage @33....

No, the post linked to in this very thread showed how virgins are mocked.
Granted, the poster there wasn't himself slamming virgins, but repeating the irrational societal "fear" of older virgins.
Many women won't date virgins.
