How do you actually define virginity?

Since the girl has her himen intact, even if she masturbates, or have anal sex, or orgasm, or she puts the finger or other objects into her vagina, she is still virgin. Virginity referes to the integrity of the himen only.

i don't believe you would still be a virgin, but that should not mean it is any less special when you chose someone to share your first consensual experience with. you are still pure and being victimized does not take that away. you define yourself any way you wish and make sure any potential partner respects that.

there is nothing wrong with you still being a virgin, may god bless you.  sex is an act of true love that should be shared with someone that you are committed to for life. U can tell when that someone comes along when there is no pressure concerning sex during your relationship.  your correct there is no concrete proof that sex is safe and no you are not missing out on anything.

The way I see it is this...\n\nRemaining a virgin is like presenting your bride/groom with a box and saying... This is a part of me I have NEVER shared with anyone in my life.  I have kept it for that one true love of my life.  Many times I have had oppertunity to share it with someone I cared for but I have never trused someone so completely before or wanted to share this gift before as I do with you.  This is my gift to you and only you for the rest of my life.  A part of me that will only be for you.  My love, my husband/wife.\n\nTo me virginity is a treasure to be guarded carefully until just the right time with just the right person.  And I believe that gift should only be shared once a  vow has been made of true love for a lifetime with God's blessing.  Then and only then can God truely bless the union to the extent he intends.\n\nCall me corny and oldfashioned but it has been a glue that has kept this marriage together for 24 yrs.\n\nKathy

A girl is a virgin if she hasn't had sex yet.  No sex = virginity.  It's as simple as that.\n\nBut if you are asking how a girl can ensure that her hymen remains intact as *proof* of her virginity, the basic answer is that she can't.  A lot of things totally unrelated to sex can stretch or break the hymen.  One that is often talked about is horseback riding, but there are tons of others--like gymnastics, or even riding a bike.  \n\nSince there is nothing you can do to prevent it, there is no reason to spend any time worrying about it.  If you want to be a virgin, don't have sex, and you are one.\n\nGood luck!!

You might have lost your virginity pleasuring yourself. I guess that's your case and now you're scared people will know. Don't worry, even though you might have ruptured your hymen, you can consider yourself a virgin till you have sex.

if you've had sex, but come to God and ask for forgivness and ask Him into your heart...and REALLY change...then yes, there is such a thing as a born-again virgin...but NOT literal. that's done for life. your hymen is broken, you've had sex. you can't take that back. but you CAN ask for forgiveness for it.

If you had sex, you are not a virgin.\n\nIf you never had sex, you are a virgin.

You can certainly be a virgin and still have desires. It's your hormones and soo natural to want sex. Obviously though, you've kept your virginity for a reason. Stand by that. There are other ways to satisfy that urge without losing your virginity.

Sex before marriage is a total no-no for me. Virginity is the most prized possesion for a women and the most deserving man can get the most prized possesion.

There really is no definitive way to know if someone is a virgin, as the hymen can tear doing other things like sports and tampon usage.

NO! virgin is someone whose never had sex. and sex is something that happens between (at least) 2 people.\n\nbut it might tear your hymen, if that's what you're worried about

your hyman coyuld get torn without a sexual act\n\nit jsut comes down to your own definition of virginity and remembering to adhere to it, physical intactness has little to do with it

Virginity is a relative term. Remember it applies to both men and women.\n\nA girl/boy who had sex can still be called virgin at heart. \n\nTake the example of a girl who had been raped. It was totally against her desire, will and wish. Does it mean she lost her virginity. Absolutely not. I would say she still is a virgin at heart. Just because her 'cherry' or 'hymen' is broken, it doesnt mean she lost her virginity. \n\nSports women in all probability will have their hymen torn or ripped naturally. Does it mean they have lost their virginity. No.\n\nIf a girl likes a boy and only that boy, as regards to that boy she is a virgin whether her 'cherry' is broken or not.\nAs regards to others, she is not a virgin because she has someone in her heart.\nHope i solved the meaning of virginity.
