Its really hillarious that most people in our country believe that older virgins are a turn off. Im a 41 year old virgin and waiting till marriage. For me the turnoff and the hillarious part is finding out that a potential date or a woman im interested in has had premarital sex and actually thinks its a cool thing and normal.

No wonder why we have a 65% divorce rate. No one should ever complain about that because it seems liek society is totally into short term relationships that will never last. No wonder why hollywood is so popular lol

I know I am and I LOVE it!

I would avoid virgins personally because

a) They are too clingy (ie. they bang you and now they want to marry you or something).
b) It feels like you are banging a bag of ice, honestly some of these chicks my god. Loosen up a little.
c) They don't really know what turns them on. You have to work with them to figure it out. Boring.
d) Experienced chicks know what guys like. So you just sit back and relax.

it's not hilarious, its strange. because most people arent virgins when they're in their 40s. I don't know, I just can't imagine not having sex that long.

Well, the thing that I would be concerned about with a 41-year-old virgin is not the virginity itself, but that person's inability to be in any committed relationship by that point in life. I mean, heck, if you can't find a life partner by the time you hit your 40s, you either have incredibly unrealistic standards, you can't attract someone, or you're phobic about commitment.

Usually if someone is a virgin that late there is some kind of problem. I was a late life virgin [up to 25] but I had serious health problems which impacted this.

If you are religious, and a Christian/or other religion and believe in waiting for marriage, then you should do so. But into your 40s, that is showing you either have some sort of problem llke being disabled [and take it from disabled person yes it is harder, and getting healthy relationship--mine isnt, is also tough] or something else, fear of commitment that has to be holding you back....

You should date other women who are late life virgins as well and hold your religious or other values. But be careful in finding a relationship and make sure it is healthy. It is better to be alone, then to hook up with someone simply NOT TO BE ALONE.

Premarital sex IS normal!

Sex is natural, marriage is an invention of man.

I certainly respect your choice. But it is your choice. If it works for you, great. Phooey to those who ridicule it. And phooey on you for doing the same to those who have different preferences for themselves.

In their defense, their options are probably more limited, but it is also a choice not to settle. Being a virgin is indeed a dealbreaker for a lot of people (I'm one of them). That doesn't mean they expect too much, are not marketable, or they're or phobic.

What would ever give you the idea that a divorce rate has to do with having sex before marriage? I bet if you interviewed divorced people, not one would say they divorced because they didn't wait to have sex until marriage. Be careful that you don't become bitter. Not participating in something natural can be hurtful to you which you are not able to realize with your philosophy.

Well, yes and no. I think being choosy about your life partner is a good thing. On the other hand, how realistic are the standards? I mean it's one thing to require physical attraction and similar values and a certain spark. But I've heard some people's requirements be so circumscribed that nobody could possibly fulfill those expectations.
