When I was a kid I always thought that those beautiful sweaters, etc. that said "100% Virgin Wool" had to come from virgin sheep. I couldn't quite make the connection of how the wool could possibly change after a sheep had had sex, but at the time it did make sense. I still chuckle to this day when I see "100% Virgin Wool" tags.
