The Celebration of the the Virgin Vaginas-Why I didn't make a mistake
I had an epiphany the other day.
I tried to recall a list of a my closet girl friends and (gasp) realised that all of them were virgins. And i really mean that they are, unless of course they were telling broken facts of their hymen .
In this day and age when virginity is getting less prized and less common amongst women. I find it imperative to come up with good reasons for retaining virginity till marriage. Even putting the calls of Christianity aside, where the body is a temple, I find reasons ranging from the shrewd to the whimsical. Of course one could see it from a rebuttal standpoint but its not my intention.
Beyond the personal, there should be practical concerns. Beware these are the boring reasons such as contraction of STDs, unwanted pregnancies, etc, etc. I count violation of the female temple as a reason. If I have nothing to gain from a man, why should I lose anything to him. I once told a male friend this answer and he responded with "Why don't you think that sexual gratification warrants the lost of virginity".
Gratification my dear, is best when delayed.
And then of course I would also need to give you a background of why I thought this way. I had a boyfriend when I was 16, he came from an all boy Methodist school and I went to an all girl Catholic Convent. Fortunately for me he wasn't that all horny(or at least didn't appear to be), so I skipped the potential misfortune of losing my virginity. After that I never seriously dated anyone nor dated anyone who successfully persuaded me to open up(no pun intended). I even once told a date that he wasn't worth losing anything to(ouch). Besides dating him was not going to take me any further in every sense of the word.
And thanks to that specific episode, my general philosophy now is that if you don't gain anything, you don't lose anything.
I always speculate what my life would be like as a non-married virgin. Since I have nothing to lose, what is there to stop me from getting more fun. Perhaps I could have one-night stands, throw orgy parties, do girl on girl, swing. Wouldn't that be fun? I could make love, have sex, or heck FUCK, depending my taste that day(no pun intended). But I am glad I am still intact.
My virginity prevents me from being a total slut.
I am the type of person who does not know what to buy for gifts, and lazy for that matter too. I am lost at what to get my future husband.
The lost of virginity to a person is a gift in itself .
I don't know what the statistics are on virgins but most people do know that less women hold on to their virginity. Which effectively means that that virginity before marriage is less common now, and becoming rare if so I must say. Something rare is less in supply. In economics if supply goes down, the value of the commodity goes up.
Virginity is a commodity that ups your market value.
Do you need any more convincing?

gratification is best when delayed? think you're gonna find yourself alone on that one. one has no guarantee that of waking up tomorrow and quite frankly, some things are meant to be enjoyed while you are young.
if you think your body is a temple, that's fine... but then what's the big deal about having a high market value? why is your worth defined by the market? you seem to treat yourself as a commodity...
maybe the guys you've dated weren't good enough for you; i wouldn't know. but you have an oddly cold, utilitarian way of looking at virginity. sex can be a really wonderful thing for people who love each other and withholding it for purposes of upping your 'market value' and increasing 'delayed gratification' seems a little twisted.
very humbly, and anonymously, i submit that you might be missing the whole point.
Hello Stella, I agree with you! Better to save it for someone special than to lose it to whom you don't cherish....that's my opinion from personal experience.
But as anonymous mentioned, it doesn't up ur market value.
I'm very sorry that your last relationship did not work out.
You might not believe me, but it is true when God says He hears and answers prayers. Mine was. I pray yours will be too.
