loosing ones virginity

Did you know that an average mammal takes 21 seconds to empty its bladder? 

, I know what you are thinking 🤣. You’re ready to take your stop watch along with you  the next time you want to pee😂. Just don’t let your device drop into the toilet. 

How are you ?, How was your week?, I hope work wasn’t stressful?. If it was, please make sure you create time to relax and shake off the stress. 

Today, we will be discussing a topic and a practice that raises eyebrows especially in a society like ours; “VIRGINITY” and “VIRGINITY TESTING”, A practice still found in some cultures.

A virgin is someone who’s never had sex — but it’s not quite as simple as it seems. That’s because sex means different things to different people, so virginity can mean different things, too. Some people haven’t had penis-in-vagina sex, but they’ve had other kinds of sex (like oral sex or anal sex) — and they may or may not see themselves as virgins.

In females, some people believe that you’re not a virgin if your hymen is stretched open. But having a hymen and being a virgin are not the same thing. 

Some people are born with hymens that are naturally open. And many other activities besides sex can stretch your hymen. So you can’t tell if someone has had sex by the way their hymen looks or feels.

In some cultures, they use the presence or lack of the hymen to test if a woman is a virgin in a practice which is called Virginity Testing (Quite shocking that some people still do this right?)

This brings me to an article on The Health City’s website titled “ THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS VIRGINITY TESTING”
