So is she right, is it quite common in our society for lots of people to never date or even have a kiss but are already in their forties.

(How can a person service their needs for closeness, love and sex if they don't date?)
I say go for it.

Maybe she doesn't have a need for sex. Ever thought of that?

it isn't sick...if it's her choice then its what she wants to do-- is it odd or rare...yes
I think she's lucky she doesn't care for it...its pretty interesting as most people do

Unless this Sister post to the thread there is no way of saying that she is not interested in having sex or that she has a low sex drive. Just because a person does not pair up does not mean they have a malfunctioning sex drive. I have never married/dated but I would have had sex with any women that wanted it when I was younger.

It really annoys me to have people say the unmated must be asexual or gay. Sometimes we just miss the opportunities for a myriad of reasons unrelated to the physical.

Sometimes(a lot of times), I wish I could become asexual, there are perhaps bigger and better things to live for in life, I am coming to that realization now, having realized that a single straight man like me is destined to lead his life all alone, it's perhaps better for me to do something really worth it than brood over it. I admire your sister's courage and fortitude in this aspect.

Something is strange about she and "many" of her friends never having even had a male friend? A kiss? Ever?

You must be leaving something out. It's just a little out of whack.
