I�m so confused about virginity. Is there a real definition?
There really isn�t one definition of virginity, or at least not one that everyone agrees with.
Some guys and girls believe intercourse between a man and a woman�when his penis goes inside her vagina�is the only way people lose their virginity. But this is a pretty limited definition, and it doesn�t include people who have sex with someone of the same gender.
Other people think that if you have oral or anal sex, then you�ve lost your virginity. Still others believe that a "true" loss of virginity only happens when at least one person has an orgasm.
So, guess what? Defining �virginity� and giving it one label isn�t as important as other things, like making sure you feel good about any sexual activity you decide to do, and making sure you�re protected from sexually transmitted infections and unplanned pregnancy, too.
