Virginity

[Quintium]

From my source:

A closer look at the sex difference in mortality by age shows that females have lower
mortality at all ages (Figure 1). Despite the fact that more boys are born than girls (on
average, 105 boys are born for every 100 girls) the number of living males decreases
rapidly. Infant and childhood mortality is higher for boys than for girls and these higher death rates
for males continue throughout their entire life span. By age 25 the
number of women alive in a cohort exceeds the number of men, and this continues to
be the case until the cohort is extinct. This sex difference is most significant at old
ages. In 1996, women aged 85 and over outnumbered men in the United States by a
factor of 1.8, in Japan (1995) by a factor of 2.3, in France (1996) by a factor of 2.7,
and in Great Britain (1995) by a factor of 2.9.

What about single men and women? And what about the fact that the most recent figures from the CIA World Factbook seem to contradict this idea very strongly? That is the information I need. From what I know, 1990s information is painfully outdated at best. Back then, I was learning about 'acid rain' and a 'hole in the ozon layer', and 64MB of RAM was considered extremely epic.

i think society's preoccupation with sexuality is absolutely disgusting. the fact that socially losing one's virginity is considered some big landmark event is pathetic and telling. it just bums me out how some people really don't want to elevate themselves above their baser urges. as to whether they're a guy or a girl is irrelevant, a preoccupation on something so animalistic is just

terrible.

i'm assume i'm going to get a lot of epically super hilarious ''hurrr not getting enuf '' shit but yeah.

i agree that it shouldnt be considered a huge landmark--although it is a bit of one to oneself, eh? no one should be judged on the basis of their sexual experience or lack thereof by anyone but a person who is considering that person as a potential lover.

Never is a strong word, Mav. Indoctrination is good if it contributes to the welfare of society.

Please explain how promoting abstinence above sex education and shaming those who do not stick to this (neither of which are inherant in abstinence education but are carried out by the movement, which is what you spoke in support of) is good for society, creates strong familial (perhaps specifically parent-child) bonds, results in fewer unwanted pregnancies and STDs, etc..

It promotes strong family values, and reduces immorality and sexual deviant behavior because... sex is bad. I heard a guy on TV say it in a speech once, and he sure did sound like he knew what he was saying.

If I did, I'd be wearing those stupid Snuggies at baseball games, cheering on random children.

In other words, I'd be in jail right now.

You and Ashmoria make compelling points.

I reverse my position, abstinence education is not as flawless as is claimed and people should not be ashamed of the sexuality.

/to the S&M club and awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

EDIT: Whoa, scatter-brained, I completely misspelled that, I meant to say "/to community service and awaaaaaaaaaaaaay"
Ugh typos, amirite?

im afraid to touch them for fear that the obama pic will rub off and reveal that they were originally romney coins.

For five easy payments of 29.99, I can send you an adapter for the Obama coin cannon so that it can convert Romney coins to Obama coins, and then fire them.

And now it's behind a pay wall for me, Aqizithiuda-mate.
What does interest me, though, is that it's the same author who said, quote:

"At a national level there are 572,000 single men aged 25-34, but only 490,000 single women in the same cohort. This means there are 117 single men for every 100 single women at this time in the life cycle."
