my little brother asked me if our mum was a virgin. When I told him no of course not, he acted like he had known all along. But a couple of minutes later, he asked me if our dad was.

FOR A CHURCH PAGENT ONCE WHEN I WAS LITTLE I GOT TO BE MARY SO I TOLD EVERY ADULT I KNEW THAT I WAS ONLY PRETENDING TO BE A VIRGIN. WHEN MY MOTHER FOUND OUT SHE HAD TO CALL EVERYONE UP AND EXPLAIN WHAT I MEANT I STILL DON'T THINK THEY BELIEVED HER.

I had just walked in the room when my mom said "at least I still have ONE virgin" I got so upset and started crying..I yelled "I AM NOT!!" my mom was shocked. she asked me if i knew what a virgin was,i said "it's something bad mommy, and I don't wanna be a bad." she just started laughing.

Rewind twenty-odd years to a little boy learning about astrological signs. Cancer, the crab -- check. Leo, the lion -- check. Virgo, the... what? Virgin? What the heck is that? Well, the picture in the book is of a young and attractive young lady, so that's what a virgin must be.

Some months/years later, the word "virgin" came up in a conversation with my sister (a year older than I.) She accused me of not even knowing what the word meant. I indignantly said, "Yes I do, it's a pretty woman!" I was very embarrassed when she corrected me.

I used to believe that to lose one's virginity, all that was required was to be kissed...
So, I told everyone that I had lost my virginity - to my mother. OY!

When I was little, my best friend and I went online and saw an porn-ad email with the term 'virgins' in the title. When we asked my dad what a virgin was he said it was a woman who isn't married. Since my friend's mom was divorced, she told all the adults her mother was a virgin.

when I was in 6th grade, my boyfriend asked me if I was a virgin. I didn't know the meaning of it, so I thought he was asking me if I was a lesbian. I ended up saying, "Of course not! If I was, why would I be going out with you?"
The teacher was standing right there too.

When I was about eight years old and living in the Florida Keys, a "new kid" came to our school from New York City. His origins made him instantly popular, and everyone totally believed what I now recognize as his bragging lies. The most disturbing of these lies (which I absolutely believed at the time) was when he said one day during lunch, "I have sex with girls until their cherries pop!" Having no idea what "popping a cherry" meant, I interpreted this to mean that he would have sex with girls until their breasts exploded!

Until I was ten, I was convinced that being a virgin had nothing to do with sex. When I was finally told the real definition, I replied ingidnantly, "That's not true! Mary was a virgin and of course she had sex, how else could she have made Jesus?"

Obviously my church wasn't doing a very good job of spreading the good news to us little ones.

I had over heard some older girls talking when I was 9, They were talking about losing their cherry to so and so.. I was very curious. So my friends and I put it together somehow that you actually had a Cherry in your vagina. I remember looking at it with a mirror trying to see it. Ieven tried to feel it in the shower. LOL

I also thought thats what was ment by eating you out. That the guy was eating your cherry.

When I was a child in Catholic school we were discussing the meaning of the "Virgin Mary." My mother had told me that women only have sex in order to have children (good Catholic girl). Since my brother & I are adopted I assumed that meant my mother was a virgin and I proudly informed the nun that my mom was the same as the Virgin Mary. I think the nun called my mom because I got a "sex talk" later that week.

Cheryl

When I was a kid, my mom was way too afraid to talk to me about sex. So one day, I asked her if SHE was a virgin. She replied with, "yes." For a while, I honestly thought I was the second coming of Christ.

When i was four, six older boys were tryign to make me mad and they satrted callign me a virgin. Being a very mad four year old and not knwoing what a virgin was a started charging at them and running down th estreet yellign at the top of my lung "I AM NOT NOT NOT A VIRGIN"

A friend and I (age 6 or 7) once debated the subject of "virginity". Having a younger mom (she's only 20 years older than I am), I knew that losing your virginity meant that you had "done it". My friend, however, insisted that it was when someone else saw you naked. I used to get so worried that I wasn't a virgin because my mom saw me in my panties everyday to help me get dressed for school!

The "Naked" Truth

When I was younger my friends had all told me that when you lose your virginity you bleed and the blood burns the guys penis. So I was terrified of losing my virginity in fear of burning off a guys penis...

When I first heard the word virgin, when I was around 11 I was around a lot of people who were older and that liked to talk dirty all the time, and someone asked "Are you a virgin?", in a serious way and I thought he was asking are you from Virginia, and I was born in New York and moved to New Jersey when I was little, so I had no idea why they would think that, so I responded "Um... No... why would you even think that?", acting like I was all smart and they were dumb. Image an 11 year old saying that. How embarassing. That was so long ago... but I still can remember it, it's one of those memories that you can always think about and laugh.

I heard the word Virgin from my mom she told me it was a girl who had never slept with a boy, my cousin was a boy and we slept in the same bed all the time so I thought I wasn't a Virgin any more. when we where on the way home from church I told my GRand pa that I wasn't a virgin any more he freaked out and asked me what a virgin was I and I told him that me and my cousin had been sleeping in the same bed and he gave me this long speech explaining what it really ment to be a virgin.

I used to think that you were a virgin if you had never spilt any food on your trousers

So when I split ketchup on myself at christmas I said "Oh damn I 'm not a virgin any more"

My grandparents were there
I was told what it really was later that day

For the longest time, I thought "being a virgin" had to do with being the Virgin Mary, which sounded way too girly for a kid like me. So when I was asked if I was a virgin, I proudly said that I wasn't. When I was then asked who I had lost my virginity to, I thought long and hard about the manliest thing to say. "My dad" was what I came up with.
