Myths about Virginity

Myth #1. First sexual intercourse occurs at 14 – 15 years old
In fact, at this age teenagers only talk about sex. Boys love to tell porkies to show their manhood. Average age when people start sexual life is 17,4. First sexual intercourse directly depends on well-being in family, mentality and education level. The more higher are those indices, the later occurs virginity loss.

Myth #2. Vaginal membrane in a woman thickens with age, therefore the later occurs virginity loss, the more painful the process is
Each female has individual anatomical organization of vaginal membrane, its size and thickness are different in each woman. Certainly, it has nothing to do with age. If vaginal membrane is elastic at 18 years old, it would be the same at 28.

Myth #3. In a woman early sexual debut is harmful
First of all, vaginal membrane is a barrier to infections for the period until is not formed protecting flora (by 17 – 18 years old). Up to this age vagina has a very subtle epithelium which easily gets traumatized during sex which may lead to inflammations and even infertility in a woman.

Myth #4. In a woman late sexual debut is harmful
In older times doctors considered that migraines and acne are a result of long-standing virginity. Perhaps, they are resulted from hormonal problems but have nothing to do with vaginal membrane existence. Often those disorders have psychosomatic character.

Myth #5. Defloration is a very painful process
Certainly, everything happens, even banal physical incompatibility. Normally, when woman is aroused enough, there may be no blood and pain at all due to natural lubricant produced by vagina.

Myth #6. First female partner should be older and more experienced male
It is desirable but not essential. Experienced partner knows how to bring a woman to highest degree of arousal which would surely ease the penetration. It is connected with experience and not with age.

Myth #7. It is better to lose virginity in bath
Warm water easily relaxes muscles, prevents spasms and reduces pain. But unfortunately, water washes away natural lubricans in a woman and a man. Chlorinated water also prevents gentle penetration.

Myth #8. Using condom makes first sex painful
Modern condoms are covered with special lubricant which helps to ease sliding. The ideal variant is when you add natural and personal lubricants, which would provide more gentle and painless penetration.
