For what it's worth, here's how I feel. Sex is something incredibly beautiful and wonderful and something that I would only wish to share with someone I really want to spend the rest of my life with. I hope it won't damage my credibility to say that I am a virgin. This is by choice. It is not prudishness, nor religion, that made me make that choice; just a highly personal wish to save that something that is most special of all to share with the most special person. I don't apply these opinions to other people, anyway, but that is merely what *I* have chosen! Maybe it's just the medieval in me. Still, I am very nitpicky about the definition of 'intercourse' and I suppose that to some people, I'm a virgin; so really, in other people's eyes it matters not at all... Arwen
