Can you say asexuality? :P I think it is gross and disgusting. Some people don't. :(
Eventually you'll come to like it...If you don't you aren't human. :P

I don't get the association of virginity = pure or clean. Sex is beautiful and is something great. If its not for you, cool. But that doesn't make you "pure" or "clean"

Not necessarily, if she really is asexual. =] I was joking, hence the ":P". I don't know too many asexual people. I think Lily is the only asexual person I know! :o

But that doesn't make you "pure" or "clean" It can also hurt people emotionally if they are not ready for it, or if one of the people is only in the relationship for the sex (they can be without even realizing it). It's a proven fact that sex outside the confines of marriage increase divorce rates, which increases the rate children will grow up with single/divorced parents, which is much less healthy for them. Sex is beautiful, but only if it is with the person you want to build your future with.

Plain and simple. Doesn't make you clean or pure.
Virgins... on an Internet message board? You don't say!:o 99.9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 percent of people on the internet are virgins. Guess who the 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 percent is?

It's just a synonym. I know plenty of people who are very evil and are still the same way...
I know - but my thing is it shouldn't be a synonym because then we start getting into "well if being a virgin is synonymous to being clean / pure then not being a virgin should be synonymous to being dirty and impure" when it shouldn't. So, were you diagnosed asexual? Like, how does that work? (just out of curiosity since the stuff i searched on the net is meh)

Adults are generally considered "corrupt", or "sinful". When someone has sex, then they've basically crossed over to adulthood and hence are no longer "pure". That's at least how I always understood the reasoning.

In old, sexist, patriarchal societies it was considered shameful for women to have sex, and therefore a woman losing her virginity was considered "impure" because she mingled with men.

Just to add: I think the assumption of sex and especially masturbation was synominous with "unpure" was because in old societies, thinking about sex (either while having sex or masturbating was considered to be "adultery/fornication of the mind". And it was considered impure because obviously adultery/fornication is a sin in many religions.
