I'm incredibly embarrassed that as a 29 gay man I'm still a virgin. I consider it a massive mark of failure. I'm thinking of hiring an escort, someone who would probably be kinder to virgins/non experienced men so that I can get over this insecurity of mine. It's the root of many of my insecurities about my body, my behaviour etc.

I'm a virgin and am very happy about it. See it as a sign that you have standards. Granted I'm 35 and female.

The whole virginity thing only has value if you give it value. To some, it's priceless whereas to others it's nothing to think about.
Don't be so hard on yourself, and don't do it with an escort. I mean you can if you want but I don't think it would be a nice story to talk about.

Being a virgin at your age may be uncommon but it's not a bad thing, in fact a lot of people see that as a positive 'bonus' when dating and all that.

I wish I could help change your mind and I'm sorry you see and feel it in such a negative way brother ❤️

I'm a virgin, too. I could probably un-become one but my past experiences with hookups (didn't go all the way, obviously) have deterred me somewhat. It really sucks to do it with someone random IMO.

I definitely don't think it's embarrassing to still be one, at any age. Plus 29 is super young, even if you might not think it. You're not even 1/3 of the way through your lifespan.

I'm a virgin...sorta...kinda, does a blowjob I did on a random count?

When I was younger, I was like "Oh no, I have to have sex to get this medal of dishonor off me!". Nowadays? Meh, wanna fuck? Maybe play smash bros?

Yes I'm 24 and a virgin. Honestly its not about sex for me in any way anymore. Just the idea of sex makes me very uncomfortable. I just want a connection with someone. I just want a hug. I hate the term "incel" because would most people would look at my situation on paper and label me that. But I dont hate anyone but myself. Its a problem.

I think every first time is going to be awkward. I think sex is more about giving yourself to desire and letting go your inhibitions, which would be difficult if it wasn't for literal chemicals in our brain pushing us.

Then again, i'm a virgin, so take what I say with a gigaton of salt

I am 20, female, and I am a virgin. I haven't been in a relationship, kissed, or held hands with anyone.
I understand why you would be insecure about it when society pushes people to have sex and what not. You're not a moral failure for being a virgin.

Yes of course. I'm a virgin and I want to have sex, not because society pushes to me, but because I'm curious and I want to share the pleasure.

Yes, but I think it's pathetic for myself to care, so I don't really care (honest, not a cope). This is nothing against women and that's not what I'm trying to say, but the thought of caring about virginity is akin to worshipping a deity that doesn't deserve it. I have dignity and am not desperate to experience something with someone who I don't even respect.

If it makes you feel any better all the virgins survive in the horror/slasher films

I am a virgin for many reasons: growing up with abstince only sex ed., a fear of STDs, a suspected health condition, prudish tendencies/a lot of awkwardness and sometimes repulsion towards it at times which confuses people, I attract strange people

I get the failure part, at least in my experience its not specifically about sex its more just ive been so completely incompetent ive failed to make any meaningful connections with anyone that in turn would lead to intimacy.
I have failed entirely to connect with anyone, even friends i feel more like a shell than an actual person talking to them.

Exactly, thank you. Due to my manifold social difficulties starting as a child I feel like an ersatz human, basically like an alien anthropologist.

Female, 21 virgin. The idea of sex scares the hell out of me so yeah. Also the idea if I do ill become impure or used goods. Oh yeah don't forget the fear or intimacy.


Maybe I will later. Idk why society gives to much shame to people that aren't virgins. Feels like winning an Xbox achievement than anything maybe.
