Some conversations are only good once you have had time to put them into perspective

[afuna_archive]

The weirdest conversation I never actually finished happened like this:

I was in university, walking with my friend after class. Talk turned to relationships, sex, virginity. He said that he wanted any girlfriend of his to be a virgin, and that if he ever found out that anyone he was dating wasn't one, he'd break up with her immediately. I said (half-shyly, half-defiantly, I was just discovering I had a voice) that I understood where he was coming from but that virginity should not be the only criterion by which to judge a person.

He stopped, stared, spluttered, "So you want t-t-to", he waved his hands around wildly, lost for words until his eyes lighted on the trees across the field. "You're saying it's fine if every girl here in $university suddenly decided to devirginate themselves on the nearest branch?!?!?!"

(His words, his intonation).

I opened my mouth, blanked out completely, shut it, and walked away.

It has been three years. I still haven't thought up a good comeback.

A BRANCH, FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY...! ::wheeze::

According to an OB-GYN I once read, a virgin is no longer virgin after she engages in sex, bottom line; as hymens can be broken by various means other than the one described in bodice-rippers. ::ebil grin::

But on a more serious note, I have no idea how this male being would determine the virginity of his girlfriend. By word of mouth? Not very reliable, that. From first-hand evidence? Errrrm...oh, dear.

Honestly, there are no words with which to come back to a pronouncement as that.

Poor poor boy!

It is to be hoped that should he find marital happiness, the particular gene controlling mental outlook will not be passed on to the next generation. Such a jurassic POV deserves to go the way of the dinosaurs.

It is possible that two more years of college opened his eyes to new perspectives! (I can only but hope :-))
